It is speculated that iQOO will be soon launching a smartphone called iQOO Z1. Except for Huawei and Honor branded phones, all Android flagship phones that have debuted this year have featured Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 865 mobile platform. What’s different about the iQOO Z1 is that it is likely to arrive with the Dimensity 1000+ SoC that was recently announced by MediaTek. A trustworthy leakster from China has shared two images to give the first look at the iQOO Z1.
As can be seen in the first image, the alleged iQOO Z1 phone has a round-shaped cutout at the upper-right corner for the front-facing camera. After the iQOO 3 and iQOO Neo3, the iQOO Z1 could be the first phone from the company to sport a punch-hole display.
The iQOO Z1 is expected to offer a high screen space as its display is surrounded by slim bezels on three sides. The bottom bezel of the device is a bit thick. The right side of the phone seems to be fitted with a volume rocker and a power button that is embedded with a fingerprint sensor.
The iQOO Z1 could be sporting an IPS LCD panel. It could be having the same 6.57-inch display that is available on the iQOO Neo3 smartphone. The second image reveals that the phone will offer users with refresh rate options like 60Hz, 90Hz, 120Hz and 144Hz.
Recently, a new Vivo phone with model number V1986A was approved by China’s 3C regulatory body. It not only revealed that the handset is a 5G-ready device, but also suggested that it could be shipping with a 44W rapid charger.
iQOO is yet to confirm the existence of the iQOO Z1 smartphone. The handset is likely to soon pop up at the database of China’s TENAA authority through which its specifications will be revealed.
