The upcoming iQOO 15 could be one of the early adopters of the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. During a popular gaming livestream in China, a company executive hinted it will debut soon.
iQOO’s arrival is confirmed again
During a League of Legends: Wild Rift live event in China, viewers noticed actress Zhao Lusi still using the older iQOO 11S. Following this, iQOO’s product manager jokingly suggested gifting her the upcoming iQOO 15. The official account quickly confirmed that Zhao Lusi would indeed receive the new phone, effectively revealing its existence ahead of schedule.
This is not the first time that the brand has hinted at the arrival of the iQOO 15. Just before the recently held ChinaJoy event, iQOO confirmed that the winners of the “Honor of Kings” 5v5 tournament would win the iQOO 15.
