In a recent report, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station shared key details about the iQOO 16’s display, chipset, and design. Now, the tipster has published a new Weibo post revealing more about the phone’s camera setup. While the iQOO 16 is expected to remain focused primarily on performance, it may not be positioned as a camera-centric flagship. Still, the latest leak suggests that iQOO could be giving its upcoming phone a more capable camera system than expected, with all three rear sensors reportedly getting a 50-megapixel resolution.
iQOO 16 camera setup could be a big step up

The new leak by DCS suggests that the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro-powered iQOO 16 is being evaluated with three 50-megapixel rear cameras. The primary sensor reportedly measures 1/1.3-inch and is paired with an f/1.68 aperture, making it the largest and brightest camera in the setup. He has previously claimed that it could feature the OmniVision OV50Q sensor as the primary snapper.
The ultra-wide camera is said to use another 50-megapixel sensor with an f/2.0 aperture. Meanwhile, the periscope telephoto camera reportedly has a 1/1.95-inch 50-megapixel sensor and an f/2.65 aperture. DCS also notes that the lens arrangement appears to follow an inverted design, while the exact telephoto and macro capabilities are still being determined.

The same source has previously claimed that the iQOO 16 will flaunt a 6.85-inch Samsung-made flat display with 2K resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. The phone could also pack an 8,500mAh battery with 100W wired charging and wireless charging.
Other rumored specifications include a dedicated display chip, 3D ultrasonic fingerprint recognition, 1115-series symmetrical dual speakers, a 0916-series X-axis linear motor, IP68 and IP69 ratings, USB 3.2 connectivity and an AR coating. The iQOO 16 is expected to arrive in China around the end of September or early October.
