iQOO is bringing its recently launched iQOO 13 smartphone to India but with a slight twist. Slated for a December 3rd release, the Indian variant will pack the same powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset found in the Chinese model, but with a slightly reduced battery capacity.
This detail comes courtesy of iQOO’s Indian website, where the promo page for the iQOO 13 reveals a 6,000mAh battery for the Indian market. This is a minor downgrade compared to the 6,150mAh battery found in the Chinese version. The charging speed, however, will remain the same at 120W across both regions.
Beyond the battery tweak, the Indian iQOO 13 will likely mirror its Chinese counterpart.
Rest is the same
The phone boasts a large and immersive 6.82-inch 144Hz LTPO AMOLED display with a 1,440p resolution and 4500 nits brightness.
Alongside Snapdragon 8 Elite, you will get options of up to 16GB of RAM and a whopping 1TB of storage. And software-wise, the iQOO 13 will run on Android 15-based Funtouch OS 15 for the global version.
Its rear camera system will include a 50MP main sensor (1/1.49″ Sony IMX921) with an f/1.88 aperture, OIS, and LED flash; a 50MP ultra-wide lens offering a 150° field of view with an f/2.0 aperture; and a 50MP telephoto lens with a 119.4° field of view, f/1.85 aperture, IMX816 sensor, and up to 4x lossless zoom with OIS. For selfies, it sports a 32MP front camera with an f/2.45 aperture.
Durability is addressed with an IP69 rating while color options for the Indian market will be limited to Legend and Nardo Grey. The device also features an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, 5G connectivity, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS, NFC, and USB Type-C.
