The Vivo sub-brand iQOO is gearing up to launch its latest flagship devices in the Indian market. The Indian lineup consists of three devices including the iQOO 9 and iQOO 9 Pro which have already been released in China and a new iQOO 9 SE. However, the iQOO 9 Pro model won’t be the same as the Chinese variant as revealed by a recent report.
MySmartPrice recently spotted the iQOO 9 Pro India variant carrying model number I2022 on the Google Play Console and Google Play supported devices list. The specs listed were mostly in line with the Chinese variant except for the display resolution. Where the Chinese iQOO 9 Pro gets a QHD+ (3200 × 1440 pixel) display, the latest listing revealed that the Indian variant is coming with an FHD+ (2400 x 1080 pixel) display 440ppi pixel density. The reason for this change is unknown however, it might be related to keeping the cost down to offer the device at competitive prices in the sub-continent.
iQOO 9 Pro Indian variant specs (rumored)
So far, we know that the iQOO 9 Pro will have a 6.78-inch FHD+ curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an in-display fingerprint scanner.
As for the cameras, the iQOO 9 Pro has a 50MP Samsung GN5 + 50MP UW + 16MP triple camera system. The primary sensor will have gimbal stabilization support and the tertiary lens will have a 2.5x optical zoom support.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset will power the device with 8 GB / 12 GB of RAM and 128 GB / 256 GB storage. The device is likely to feature LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. It will house a 4,700mAh battery that supports 120W fast charging and it will run on Android 12 OS.
The upcoming iQOO 9 lineup already has an Amazon Indian landing page so we can expect the device to launch this month only.
