Last week, iQOO officially revealed the launch of their flagship smartphone, the iQOO 12, in India. Alongside this announcement, they introduced an Exclusive Priority Pass.
The priority passes in India were in high demand and sold out within nine hours of their release, even though they were supposed to be available from December 5th to 7th. Holders of these passes will get the opportunity to purchase the iQOO 12 on December 13th, a day before its official sale date. The device is scheduled to launch on December 12th at 5 PM.
iQOO 12 Specifications
The phone’s specifications are already known as it was launched in China last month. The iQOO 12 features a 6.78-inch 1.5K flat LTPO AMOLED display with a 144Hz variable refresh rate and impressive brightness levels of up to 1400 nits in HBM mode and up to 3000 nits peak brightness.
It is powered by the Octa-Core Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset with an Adreno 750 GPU and offers RAM options of 12GB or 16GB along with storage choices of 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB (UFS 4.0).
Running on Android 14 with OriginOS 4.0 in China or Funtouch OS 14 globally, it supports dual SIM cards and boasts a versatile camera setup, including a 50MP primary camera, a 50MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 64MP telephoto camera with 3x zoom. On the front, it features a 16MP camera.
The device comes with an in-display Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and offers USB Type-C audio, stereo speakers, and Hi-Fi audio quality. In terms of connectivity, it supports 5G SA/NSA, dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, and NFC.

Pricing and Availability
Yesterday, the pricing details of the iQOO 12 were inadvertently leaked through an Amazon listing. The prices are briefly shown as Rs 52,999 for the 12GB + 256GB version and Rs 57,999 for the 16GB + 512GB model, although these listings have now been taken down. The launch-day promotions and potential bank discounts could further lower the smartphone’s cost.
