Qualcomm is set to launch the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 (possibly called the Snapdragon 8 Elite) chip on October 21, followed closely by the launch of several flagships including the Xiaomi 15 series, OnePlus 13, iQOO 13, and realme GT7 Pro. iQOO has already revealed the design and some specifications of their upcoming flagship. Now the 2024 vivo Developer Conference also reveals more information about the phone.

A higher peak brightness paired with improved power efficiency
According to the conference, the iQOO 13 will debut BOE’s latest Q10 luminescent display material, which reportedly brings a ‘comprehensive breakthrough’ in brightness, color accuracy, power efficiency, and overall lifespan. While improvements in the first three parameters are easy to understand, what does the fourth one really suggest? Fewer chances of seeing a green line on your screen in the future? To be perfectly honest, we’re not entirely sure.
For those curious about numbers, the display panel offers a 12.5% increase in global peak brightness, a more than 50% reduction in the color cast, a 33% increase in life, a 15% reduction in smearing, and a 10% reduction in power consumption. For context, the global peak brightness refers to the brightness level the display reaches in bright lighting conditions such as outdoors during the day.
According to previous reports, iQOO 13’s display panel will feature with 2K resolution, up from 1.5K of the iQOO 12. While we don’t have an exact number about the brightness level, the predecessor supports a global peak brightness of 1400 nits and a local peak brightness of 3000 nits.
iQOO 13 was previously rumored to launch sometime in November. However, the official confirmed that it will launch towards the end of October, just after the launch of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.
According to previous rumors, the phone packs a 6100 mAh battery and supports 100W PD/PPS charging. Despite packing a massive battery, it measures 8.1mm in thickness and maintains a sleek form factor.
