A few weeks ago, we reported that Vivo was ceding its U-series and V-series of smartphones to iQOO. The first U-series phone under iQOO has been reported to arrive as the iQOO U1. More details have now surfaced about the phone.
According to Digital Chat Station, the new iQOO U-series smartphone will have 5G support and will be targeted at the low-end market. The phone is said to be on the way soon.
While the main specs are still unknown, we believe the iQOO U1 will be powered by the Dimensity 800 or Dimensity 820 processors. These two MediaTek chipsets are designed for budget 5G devices, so it makes sense that iQOO will make use of one of them.
We expect more details regarding the specs, design, and price of the phone will surface as time goes on.
Vivo’s U-series and V-series are also sold outside China and this upcoming iQOO U1 will be the first 5G smartphone of the series. It will be interesting if iQOO announces it outside China, maybe even in India as the first budget 5G smartphone in the country.
