The iQOO Z series made its debut last year as a line of affordable phones. The first model in the series, the iQOO Z1, launched last May as the first phone with the Dimensity 1000+. It also packed a 144Hz refresh rate and a 44W fast charging. Now a successor, which should arrive as the iQOO Z3 is coming and it has received its 3C certification.
The iQOO Z3 was certified as the Vivo V2073A. Just like its predecessor, it is a 5G phone and according to Digital Chat Station, it will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1100 chipset.
The 3C certificate reveals that the phone will support 11V 5A (55W) charging an upgrade from its predecessor’s 44W fast charging. The rest of the phone’s specs are unknown but we expect more details to surface in the coming weeks.
The iQOO Z1 had a 6.57-inch LCD display. iQOO may decide to stick to LCD or make the switch to AMOLED for this year’s model, though the refresh rate will likely not be as high as 144Hz.
Another area where we expect upgrades is the camera department. The iQOO Z1 has 48MP triple rear cameras which also includes an 8MP ultrawide angle camera and a 2Mp macro camera. With 64MP sensors being more common these days, we won’t rule out the iQOO Z3 also getting one. We also expect it to have an improved ultrawide angle camera and maybe a depth sensor.
Seeing as the iQOO Z3 has been certified already, there is a chance it may launch earlier than its predecessor.
