Earlier this month, iQOO unveiled the iQOO 8 and iQOO 8 Pro flagship phones in China. Before the launch event, an iQOO phone with model number I2019 was spotted at the IMEI database. At that time, it was speculated that it could be an Indian variant of the iQOO 8. Now, an Indian tipster has claimed that the company will be launching the iQOO 8 as early as next month in India.
