<p>The budget smartphone market may be heading in an unexpected (or expected?) direction this year. According to a recent post from a reliable industry insider, several sub-brands of major smartphone makers are preparing to launch new devices in the sub-1,000 yuan (around $140) segment.</p>



<p>The surprising part is that many of these phones will scale back hardware instead of improving it.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price.png?x44794" alt="Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price" class="wp-image-723144" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price.png 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price-300x200.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price-768x512.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price-696x464.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Samsung-Galaxy-A07-5G-Launch-specs-price-630x420.png 630w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /><figcaption>Samsung never retired the waterdrop notch in the Galaxy A0X series. In Image: Galaxy A07 5G </figcaption></figure></div>



<p>The report claims that the upcoming budget phones will continue to use 1080p LCD panels and bring back the waterdrop notch. The entry-level memory configurations are also reportedly reverting to 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.</p>



<p>This isn’t the first time we’ve heard such news. A report late last year suggested that <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2025/12/13/16gb-ram-phones-rarity-2026-while-4gb-models-comeback/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><span style="text-decoration: underline">16GB of RAM could become rare in flagship phones</span> </a>by 2026, while 4GB of RAM could become far more common in budget devices.</p>



<h2><strong>Blame the memory crisis, folks</strong></h2>



<p>You probably already know who is to blame. The biggest reason is the sharp increase in memory chip prices. </p>



<p>According to market research firm <em>TrendForce</em>, global DRAM contract prices rose by <a href="https://www.trendforce.com/presscenter/news/20260407-13001.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><span style="text-decoration: underline">more than 40%</span></a> for two consecutive quarters, from the fourth quarter of 2025 through the first quarter of 2026.</p>



<p>Another report from <a href="https://counterpointresearch.com/en/insights/Memory-Prices-Surge-Up-to-90-From-Q4-2025" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><span style="text-decoration: underline"><em>Counterpoint</em></span></a> suggests the situation may be even more difficult. It says prices across the memory market increased by 80–90% quarter-over-quarter during the first quarter of 2026, with DRAM, NAND, and HBM chips all reaching record highs.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="649" height="631" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Screenshot-2023-06-30-100028.png?x44794" alt="Budget smartphones" class="wp-image-548153" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Screenshot-2023-06-30-100028.png 649w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Screenshot-2023-06-30-100028-300x292.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Screenshot-2023-06-30-100028-432x420.png 432w" sizes="(max-width: 649px) 100vw, 649px" /></figure></div>



<p>Xiaomi founder Lei Jun also said that the ongoing surge in memory prices has been “extremely aggressive” and predicted that prices across the memory industry could continue climbing over the next two years. He also suggested that users planning to upgrade their phones may <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/22/xiaomi-ceo-warns-smartphone-prices-may-rise/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><span style="text-decoration: underline">want to do so sooner rather than later</span></a>.</p>



<p>Not long ago, many affordable smartphones launched with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage as standard. However, as component costs continue to rise, manufacturers are rethinking their entry-level strategies.</p>



<p>If memory prices remain high, higher-capacity variants could become increasingly expensive, while budget phones may continue making compromises that many buyers thought were a thing of the past.</p>

<p>Last year, <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/oneplus-2/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">OnePlus</a> claimed that combining a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2025/10/16/oneplus-reveals-why-it-chose-1-5k-display-for-oneplus-15/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">2K display with a 165Hz refresh rate </a>was simply not possible. OnePlus China President Li Jie explained that no display manufacturer had yet managed to produce a 2K OLED screen capable of sustaining 165Hz, and that 1.5K was the only feasible option.</p>



<p>The <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oneplus-15/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">OnePlus 15</a> launched with that compromise. It has a 1.5K panel at 165Hz, and the company called it the industry&#8217;s best available solution at the time. </p>



<p>But iQOO might change that narrative entirely.</p>



<h2><strong>iQOO Neo 12 could be world’s first to debut 2K 165Hz screen</strong></h2>



<p>Reliable Chinese tech leaker Digital Chat Station now claims that the upcoming Neo 12 is confirmed to feature a 2K display running at 165Hz. Even more, the device could pair 2K resolution with an 185Hz refresh rate. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="207" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/iQOO-Neo-12-leak.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO Neo 12 leak" class="wp-image-741173" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/iQOO-Neo-12-leak.jpg 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/iQOO-Neo-12-leak-300x69.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/iQOO-Neo-12-leak-768x177.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/iQOO-Neo-12-leak-696x160.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></figure></div>



<p>To understand why this is such a big deal, a little context helps. Right now, the best mass-produced 2K screens on the market max out at 144Hz. Anything higher comes at the cost of resolution, which is exactly the trade-off OnePlus made.&nbsp;</p>



<p>OnePlus stated that &#8220;due to limitations in luminescent materials and circuit technology, the industry is currently unable to achieve the 165Hz + 2K specifications simultaneously.&#8221;</p>



<p>However, iQOO seems to have the engineering to back it up now.&nbsp;</p>



<p>According to the leak, the Neo 12&#8217;s R&amp;D team is not just targeting 165Hz. They&#8217;re reportedly experimenting with an even more extreme 185Hz tuning mode. Not that it would be the first 185Hz phone.<a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/asus-rog-phone-9-pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Asus’ 2024 ROG Phone 9 Pro</a> has an 185Hz refresh rate, but it only has a 1080p resolution. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--1024x576.webp?x44794" alt="iQOO Neo 11" class="wp-image-731925" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--1024x576.webp 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--300x169.webp 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--768x432.webp 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--696x392.webp 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--1068x601.webp 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11--747x420.webp 747w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iQOO-Neo-11-.webp 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO Neo 11</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>iQOO pairing 185Hz and 2K will be the screen benchmark, at least for gaming phones, of 2026. In fast-paced titles like tactical shooters, a higher refresh rate means smoother aiming, cleaner enemy tracking, and a tear-free screen even during rapid movement.&nbsp;</p>



<p>On the hardware side, the Neo 12 is expected to come powered by Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. An official launch is expected in the second half of 2025.</p>

<p>In a recent Weibo post, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS) claimed that, apart from <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/06/03/xiaomi-18-vivo-x500-oppo-find-x10-series-september-launch-tipped/">Xiaomi, Vivo and Oppo</a> are also planning to launch their next-generation flagship smartphones in September. Now, a fresh leak suggests that a few more flagship devices, which were previously expected to debut in October or November, could also be brought forward to September.</p>



<h3><strong>What to expect this September?</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="226" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36-1024x226.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-740930" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36-1024x226.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36-300x66.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36-768x169.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36-696x153.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36-1068x235.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-36.png 1167w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>According to DCS&#8217; latest Weibo post, one smartphone sub-brand under a major Chinese manufacturer has already decided to advance the launch of its next flagship to the third quarter of 2026. While the tipster did not name the brand, it is believed that he may be referring to the Redmi K100 series. In an <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/15/redmi-k100-series-launch-before-xiaomi-18/">earlier post</a>, DCS had suggested that the next-generation K100 lineup could arrive ahead of schedule in Q3.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="216" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37-1024x216.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-740931" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37-1024x216.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37-300x63.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37-768x162.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37-696x147.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37-1068x225.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-37.png 1319w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="263" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38-1024x263.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-740932" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38-1024x263.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38-300x77.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38-768x197.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38-696x179.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38-1068x275.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/image-38.png 1330w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>The tipster further claims that the upcoming <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oneplus-16">OnePlus 16</a> and <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-16">iQOO 16</a> may also be moved up to September. He adds that regulatory filings and product development timelines are being accelerated, indicating that several flagship launches could take place earlier than originally planned.</p>



<p>If these claims prove accurate, September could become one of the busiest months of the year for flagship smartphone launches. Brands are likely aiming to position their devices as alternatives to the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro series, which is expected to launch in September, following Apple&#8217;s usual release schedule.</p>



<p>That said, readers should treat these claims with caution. While some brands may currently be targeting a September launch window, final launch schedules could still shift to October or November.</p>



<p>An earlier debut in China could also pave the way for faster global rollouts. If these flagship devices launch in September or during the first few weeks of October, there is a strong possibility that their global variants could arrive before the end of the year.</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE focuses on a more compact flagship experience with a premium glass-and-metal construction that feels easier to handle during long usage sessions. Its cleaner proportions make one-handed use noticeably more comfortable, especially for users moving from smaller premium phones. The iQOO 15, meanwhile, takes a more aggressive flagship approach with a larger chassis, sharper styling, and even a color-changing rear panel option that gives it a more futuristic personality. Both devices offer IP68/IP69 protection and premium materials, but the Vivo feels more refined while the iQOO leans toward performance-centric styling.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>Vivo equips the X300 FE with a bright LTPO AMOLED panel featuring 5000 nits peak brightness and excellent HDR tuning. The display looks vibrant without appearing overly saturated. The iQOO 15 counters with a sharper 2K LTPO AMOLED panel, a smoother 144Hz refresh rate, and stronger multimedia support through Dolby Vision and HDR Vivid. Gaming and video playback feel more immersive on the iQOO, while the Vivo offers a slightly more balanced and eye-friendly viewing experience.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE feels more practical and premium for daily comfort, but the iQOO 15 delivers a more impressive display experience overall.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE runs on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset paired with UFS 4.1 storage, delivering flagship-grade speed for gaming, multitasking, and AI-heavy features. Performance remains smooth and efficient, especially for users who prefer sustained thermal control over extreme benchmark numbers. The iQOO 15 pushes things further with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and a more aggressive CPU configuration. It is clearly built for maximum performance and high-refresh gaming, making it one of the faster Android phones in this segment. The additional RAM and 1TB storage option also give it more flexibility for power users.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>Battery life is strong on both phones, but the iQOO 15 gains an advantage with its larger 7000mAh battery and faster 100W charging support. Heavy gamers and long-session users will appreciate the extra endurance. The Vivo X300 FE still performs impressively with its 6500mAh battery, 90W wired charging, wireless charging, and reverse charging features. Its charging speeds feel more than fast enough in daily use.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO 15 wins on raw power and battery endurance, while the Vivo X300 FE feels more balanced and thermally controlled for everyday flagship usage.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE places heavy focus on camera quality with Zeiss optics, refined image processing, and a versatile triple-camera setup. Its 50MP primary sensor captures natural colors with strong dynamic range, while the periscope telephoto lens produces detailed zoom shots with excellent stabilization. The optional Zeiss zoom accessory also adds a unique photography advantage rarely seen in mainstream flagships. Even the ultrawide camera maintains decent consistency in color science.</p>



<p>The iQOO 15 takes a more balanced hardware-first approach with three 50MP sensors, including a stronger ultrawide camera compared to the Vivo. Photos look sharp and punchy, and the phone handles video recording extremely well. However, the image tuning feels slightly more aggressive, especially in saturated lighting conditions.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE clearly leads in selfie hardware with a 50MP autofocus front camera capable of sharper detail and more natural portrait separation. The iQOO 15’s 32MP selfie shooter performs well for casual use and video calls, but lacks the flagship-level refinement seen on the Vivo.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE delivers a better overall camera experience thanks to stronger tuning, Zeiss optimization, and a superior selfie system, while the iQOO 15 focuses more on consistency and versatility.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE is priced around $950 / ₹80,000, placing it firmly in the premium compact flagship category. Its pricing reflects the Zeiss camera partnership, premium build quality, wireless charging support, and refined software-camera optimization. It feels targeted toward buyers who prioritize camera quality and flagship polish over outright benchmark performance.</p>



<p>The iQOO 15 is priced around $600 / ₹73,000, making it surprisingly competitive considering the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, 2K 144Hz display, massive battery, and flagship-grade charging capabilities. It undercuts many premium rivals while still offering true ultra-flagship hardware. The pricing strategy makes the iQOO feel far more aggressive in terms of value.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE justifies its pricing through camera refinement and premium usability, but the iQOO 15 offers significantly stronger value for users focused on performance and specifications.</p>



<p><strong><em>Disclaimer:</em></strong><strong><em><br></em></strong><em>Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, launch timing, and applicable taxes. Always check whether the listed price is for a China unit or a global/international variant when purchasing.</em></p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>The Vivo X300 FE stands out as a compact premium flagship that prioritizes photography, balanced usability, and refined day-to-day comfort. Its Zeiss camera tuning, autofocus selfie camera, wireless charging support, and manageable form factor make it feel more polished for users who value the overall experience rather than pure specifications. The software and camera optimization also give it a more mature flagship personality.</p>



<p>The iQOO 15, on the other hand, feels built for enthusiasts who want maximum hardware for the price. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, larger battery, sharper 144Hz display, faster connectivity standards, and aggressive pricing create a package that is extremely difficult to ignore. It feels more ambitious and performance-driven throughout.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>Vivo X300 FE is the better choice for camera-focused users wanting a refined compact flagship experience. iQOO 15 is the smarter pick for gamers, power users, and buyers seeking flagship-level hardware with stronger overall value.</p>



<p><strong><em>Disclaimer: </em></strong><em>This comparison is based on the specifications provided and is intended for general informational purposes.

<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">iQOO</a> is reportedly working on two new flagship phones for the Chinese market. The first one is expected to launch next month, while the other will be a next-generation offering likely to debut in October. Here’s a look at the known details of both devices.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO 16’s battery size revealed</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="969" height="266" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-141.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-739761" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-141.png 969w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-141-300x82.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-141-768x211.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-141-696x191.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 969px) 100vw, 969px" /></figure>



<p>The latest leak talks about a new iQOO flagship phone that will feature Qualcomm’s SM8975 processor. It appears the tipster is referring to the iQOO 16, which is rumored to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chip.</p>



<p>The tipster claims the engineering prototype does not include a built-in cooling fan, unlike some gaming-focused smartphones. However, the phone could feature a massive battery rated at around 8,500mAh.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="978" height="195" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-142.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-739762" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-142.png 978w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-142-300x60.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-142-768x153.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-142-696x139.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 978px) 100vw, 978px" /></figure>



<p>It may also feature a 2K flat display with a new customized panel material and an ultra-high refresh rate aimed at improving gaming and multimedia performance. Previous reports have revealed a 6.85-inch Samsung display with a 165Hz refresh rate. Also, the new leak reveals include flagship-grade symmetrical speakers. </p>



<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/15/iqoo-16-primary-periscope-telephoto-camera-details-leaked/">For photography</a>, the iQOO 16 may feature a 1/1.3-inch primary camera on the back. It could be accompanied by a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. It could also become iQOO’s first device to ship with OriginOS 7 based on Android 17.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO Neo 11S’s June launch tipped</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="948" height="291" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-140.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-739760" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-140.png 948w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-140-300x92.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-140-768x236.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-140-696x214.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 948px) 100vw, 948px" /></figure>



<p>A report from last month revealed that a new Neo series phone is in development. As mentioned above, tipster Digital Chat Station claims that this device will debut in June. While the official moniker is still unknown, it is likely to launch as the iQOO Neo 11S or Neo 11 Pro.</p>



<p>In all likelihood, it could be an <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/28/iqoo-15t-pad-6-pro-neo-11-series-specifications-leaked/">incremental upgrade</a> over the Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered iQOO Neo 11, which debuted in China in October 2025. Readers are advised to wait for further reports to learn more about the device.</p>

<p>The iQOO Z11 5G and Redmi Note 15 Pro+ bring flagship-style features to the upper mid-range segment, but they take very different approaches. The iQOO focuses on massive battery life and gaming performance, while the Redmi pushes a more premium experience with stronger cameras and multimedia features. For buyers in this range, this comparison is far more competitive than it first appears</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G focuses more on practicality with a durable IP68/IP69-rated body, a clean matte-style finish, and a display tuned for fluidity. The overall design feels gaming-oriented and performance-focused rather than premium. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ takes a more polished approach with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection, eco-leather or glass-style finishes, and stronger durability claims, including improved drop resistance. It simply looks and feels a bit more flagship-like in daily use.</p>



<p>Both devices are protected against water and dust, but Redmi’s extra durability layers make it feel more reassuring for long-term use. The iQOO, however, has a slightly more aggressive and youthful appeal that suits gamers well.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>Both phones use large AMOLED panels with excellent sharpness and HDR support, but the experience differs. The iQOO Z11 offers a smoother 144Hz refresh rate and an incredible 5000 nits peak brightness, making scrolling and gaming feel exceptionally fluid. Meanwhile, the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ counters with Dolby Vision, HDR10+, higher PWM dimming, and richer color depth that feels more cinematic during media playback.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ delivers a more premium and refined display experience overall, especially for entertainment lovers. The iQOO Z11 feels faster and smoother for gaming-focused users.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>Both smartphones run on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset paired with the Adreno 810 GPU, so raw performance is very close. Daily multitasking, gaming, and app handling feel smooth on both devices. The iQOO Z11 gains an advantage with UFS 3.1 storage, which helps with faster app loading, quicker installs, and slightly better gaming responsiveness. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ still performs well, but its UFS 2.2 storage feels less future-ready at this price point.</p>



<p>Software philosophy also differs. iQOO’s Origin OS feels performance-driven and optimized for speed, while HyperOS 2 on Redmi focuses more on polish and ecosystem features. Gamers may naturally lean toward the iQOO because it feels more aggressive under heavy load.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>This is where the iQOO Z11 becomes extremely hard to ignore. Its massive 9020mAh silicon-carbon battery is one of the largest in the segment and comfortably outclasses the Redmi’s 6500mAh cell in endurance. Even with heavy gaming or long streaming sessions, the iQOO should last noticeably longer.</p>



<p>The Redmi counters with faster 100W charging compared to iQOO’s 90W solution, but the difference in real-world charging speed is not dramatic.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 wins this section because of its exceptional battery life and faster storage performance. The Redmi remains balanced, but the iQOO feels more power-user friendly.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ clearly targets camera-focused buyers with its 200MP main sensor, OIS support, and dedicated ultrawide camera. Photos should offer better detail retention, stronger dynamic range, and more versatility in different shooting situations. The addition of Dolby Vision-style display tuning also helps photos and videos appear richer during playback.</p>



<p>The iQOO Z11 uses a simpler dual-camera setup with a 50MP primary sensor and an auxiliary lens. While the main camera should still perform well in daylight and casual photography, the absence of an ultrawide camera limits flexibility. Its camera system feels more functional than ambitious.</p>



<p>Video recording is solid on both devices with 4K support, but Redmi’s stabilization and higher frame-rate options provide more creative flexibility.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>Both phones feature 32MP front cameras, but the iQOO gains an advantage by supporting 4K selfie video recording. Content creators and vlog users may appreciate this extra capability.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ is the stronger overall camera phone thanks to its superior main sensor and ultrawide lens. The iQOO only pulls ahead slightly for selfie video recording.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>The iQOO Z11 is priced at around $300 or ₹31,000, while the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ costs roughly $360 or ₹34,500. The difference is not massive, but it changes the value equation significantly.</p>



<p>At its price, the iQOO Z11 offers an unusually large battery, flagship-level display smoothness, and faster UFS 3.1 storage. It feels aggressively priced for gamers and heavy users who prioritize endurance and performance over camera versatility. Few phones in this range deliver such massive battery capacity without major compromises elsewhere.</p>



<p>The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ justifies its higher price through a more premium build, better durability, stronger camera hardware, Dolby Vision support, and richer multimedia features. It feels like a more complete all-rounder rather than a specialist device.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 delivers stronger raw value for money, especially for gaming and battery-focused buyers. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ feels worth the premium for users who care more about cameras, display refinement, and premium design.</p>



<p><strong><em>Disclaimer:</em></strong><strong><em><br></em></strong><em>Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, launch timing, and applicable taxes. Always check whether the listed price is for a China unit or a global/international variant when purchasing.</em></p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>The iQOO Z11 stands out mainly because of its enormous 9020mAh battery, 144Hz AMOLED display, bypass charging support, and faster UFS 3.1 storage. It feels purpose-built for gamers, travelers, and users who simply hate charging their phones frequently. The performance-focused tuning gives it a slightly more enthusiast-friendly personality.</p>



<p>The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ focuses on balance and refinement. Its 200MP camera, Dolby Vision display, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection, ultrawide lens, and polished software experience make it feel closer to a premium flagship-lite smartphone. It handles nearly every category well without obvious weaknesses.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>Overall, the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ feels like the better all-round smartphone thanks to its more premium design, stronger camera setup, richer multimedia experience, and longer software support. The iQOO Z11 5G still stands out with its massive battery and gaming-focused performance, but for most users looking for a balanced daily flagship-style experience, the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ is the smarter choice.</p>



<p><strong><em>Disclaimer: </em></strong><em>This comparison is based on the specifications provided and is intended for general informational purposes. Actual performance, camera results, battery life, and overall experience may vary depending on real-world usage, software updates, and individual preferences.</em></p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G focuses heavily on endurance and practicality. Its clean design, IP68/IP69 protection, and large battery-oriented chassis make it feel like a device built for long gaming sessions and heavy outdoor usage. The plastic frame and back help keep durability concerns low, though it does not feel as premium in hand as the Poco X8 Pro.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro takes a more refined approach with an aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass 7i protection. It looks and feels more polished, while features like Dolby Vision and stronger multimedia tuning give it a flagship-inspired touch. The compact feel compared to the iQOO also makes daily handling slightly more comfortable.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G offers a larger 6.83-inch AMOLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and extremely high 5000-nit peak brightness. Scrolling and gaming feel exceptionally fluid, and the bigger screen suits content consumption well.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro counters with a sharper AMOLED display supporting Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and 3840Hz PWM dimming. Colors appear richer and more cinematic, especially while streaming movies or HDR videos. The lower 120Hz refresh rate is barely noticeable in daily use.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G feels more gaming-focused with its massive display and ultra-smooth refresh rate. However, the Poco X8 Pro delivers a more premium overall visual experience thanks to better display calibration, stronger materials, and enhanced multimedia features. Users prioritizing entertainment and design may lean toward Poco, while gamers and power users could prefer the iQOO approach.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G uses the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 paired with UFS 3.1 storage. Performance is stable and efficient for gaming, multitasking, and long-term sustained workloads. Origin OS 6 also appears optimized for smooth responsiveness, especially during extended sessions.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro pushes harder with the Dimensity 8500 Ultra and faster UFS 4.1 storage. App loading speeds are noticeably quicker, gaming performance is stronger, and high-end titles can sustain better frame consistency. The chipset positioning clearly places the Poco closer to upper mid-range flagship territory.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>Battery life is where the iQOO Z11 5G becomes extremely difficult to ignore. The enormous 9020mAh battery is easily among the biggest in the segment and can comfortably last beyond a full day of heavy use. The 90W charging support still keeps refill times reasonable despite the huge capacity.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro uses a smaller 6500mAh battery but compensates with faster 100W charging and better charging standards support. It feels more balanced for users who value speed over outright endurance.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro wins pure performance with its faster chipset and storage setup, but the iQOO Z11 5G dominates battery life in a way very few smartphones currently can. Users wanting maximum longevity and gaming endurance may find the iQOO more practical, while the Poco feels faster and more future-ready overall.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G keeps things simple with a 50MP OIS primary camera and an auxiliary sensor. Daylight shots are expected to look clean with balanced colors and reliable sharpness, while OIS should help with low-light stability. However, the lack of an ultrawide lens limits versatility, especially for landscape and group photography.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro delivers a more complete setup with a 50MP OIS main sensor and an 8MP ultrawide camera. Video capabilities are also stronger with support for 4K 60fps, HDR10+, and extensive slow-motion modes. The camera experience feels more polished and feature-rich overall.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G gains an advantage with its 32MP selfie camera capable of 4K video recording. Content creators and video callers may appreciate the sharper front camera output.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro uses a smaller 20MP sensor limited to 1080p recording. Selfies should still appear decent, but it lacks the premium front-camera flexibility offered by the iQOO.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro is the stronger all-around camera phone thanks to its ultrawide lens, superior video capabilities, and more versatile imaging package. Still, the iQOO Z11 5G offers a surprisingly strong selfie experience, making it attractive for users focused on social media and front-camera content.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G is priced at around $300 or ₹31,000, while the Poco X8 Pro sits higher at approximately $375 or ₹35,000. The difference may not seem massive on paper, but it places the Poco in a more premium category where expectations naturally increase.</p>



<p>At its price, the iQOO Z11 5G offers tremendous battery value. A massive 9020mAh battery, 144Hz AMOLED display, IP68/IP69 protection, and 32MP 4K selfie camera make it feel aggressively positioned for gamers and heavy users. It delivers standout hardware without crossing flagship pricing territory.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro justifies its higher cost with better materials, stronger performance hardware, faster storage, improved multimedia features, and a more versatile camera system. The overall package feels more refined and balanced rather than specialized.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G offers better value for buyers prioritizing battery life and gaming endurance on a tighter budget. Meanwhile, the Poco X8 Pro feels worth the extra money for users wanting a more premium, complete smartphone experience with stronger cameras and flagship-style performance.</p>



<p><strong><em>Disclaimer:</em></strong><strong><em><br></em></strong><em>Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, launch timing, and applicable taxes. Always check whether the listed price is for a China unit or a global/international variant when purchasing.</em></p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>The iQOO Z11 5G stands out primarily because of its enormous 9020mAh battery, which completely changes day-to-day usability. Long gaming sessions, travel, streaming, and multitasking become far less stressful when battery anxiety is nearly removed. The 144Hz AMOLED panel and 32MP 4K selfie camera also give it a distinctive edge in specific areas.</p>



<p>The Poco X8 Pro feels more balanced and premium overall. Features like UFS 4.1 storage, Dolby Vision support, aluminum frame, ultrawide camera, and advanced video recording capabilities create a more flagship-inspired experience. It may not dominate a single category as aggressively as the iQOO, but it performs strongly across nearly every department.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO Z11 5G is the better choice for battery-focused power users, gamers, and buyers wanting maximum hardware value at a lower price. Poco X8 Pro, however, feels like the more complete smartphone overall with stronger performance, better cameras, and a more polished multimedia experience. The final choice depends on whether endurance or refinement matters more.</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>The OnePlus Nord CE 6 and iQOO Z11 5G both target users who want premium-style hardware without stepping into flagship pricing. Both devices carry IP68/IP69 protection, stereo speakers, AMOLED panels, and modern flat-frame styling, making them feel more expensive than their segment suggests. The Nord CE 6 leans slightly toward a cleaner and more minimal look, while the iQOO Z11 appears a bit more aggressive and performance-focused in its design language. Both phones also feel durable enough for daily heavy use, which is becoming increasingly important in this price category.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>The Nord CE 6 offers a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate, 3840Hz PWM dimming, and up to 3600 nits peak brightness. The iQOO Z11 counters with a slightly larger 6.83-inch AMOLED panel, 1B colors, 5000 nits peak brightness, and 144Hz refresh rate. Both displays are sharp and fluid, but the iQOO panel looks slightly more vibrant outdoors and during HDR playback. The OnePlus display, however, feels a touch more balanced and easier on the eyes during extended use.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 takes a narrow win for display brightness and multimedia punch, while the Nord CE 6 feels more refined overall in everyday visual tuning.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>Both smartphones use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset paired with Adreno 810 graphics, so real-world performance is naturally close. Everyday tasks, multitasking, social media usage, and gaming run smoothly on both devices. The OnePlus Nord CE 6 appears slightly more optimized in animations and app transitions, giving it a polished feel during prolonged use. Meanwhile, the iQOO Z11 benefits from higher memory options, including a 12GB RAM variant that may appeal to power users and gamers.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>Battery life is where these phones separate themselves. The Nord CE 6 packs a huge 8000mAh battery with 80W charging and reverse wired charging support. The iQOO Z11 pushes things even further with a massive 9020mAh silicon-carbon battery and faster 90W charging. Both comfortably deliver multi-day endurance, but the iQOO simply feels built for users who hate carrying chargers. Bypass charging on both devices is also a useful addition for gaming sessions.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 wins this round due to its larger battery and faster charging, though the Nord CE 6 still delivers excellent efficiency and smoother software behavior.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>The OnePlus Nord CE 6 uses a 50MP main sensor with OIS and supports 4K recording alongside 1080p at up to 120fps. The iQOO Z11 also includes a 50MP OIS-enabled primary camera, but with a larger 1/1.95-inch sensor that can capture slightly better low-light detail and dynamic range. In daylight, both phones produce sharp and colorful images, though OnePlus tends to tune colors more naturally. The iQOO, meanwhile, adds extra contrast and saturation that may appeal more to social media users.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>Both devices feature 32MP selfie cameras capable of 4K video recording. Skin tones and edge detection are reliable on both, but the Nord CE 6 appears slightly more consistent in indoor lighting. Video stabilization also feels a bit smoother during handheld recording. The iQOO selfie camera is sharper at times, though it occasionally leans toward aggressive processing.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 offers stronger hardware on paper, especially for low-light photography, but the Nord CE 6 delivers a more balanced and dependable camera experience overall.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>The OnePlus Nord CE 6 is around $330 or roughly ₹30,000, while the iQOO Z11 is exnear $300 or around ₹31,000, depending on the RAM variant. Despite the slightly lower global pricing, the iQOO actually sits very close to the Nord CE 6 in the Indian market. This creates an interesting situation because both devices target almost identical buyers.</p>



<p>In terms of value, the iQOO Z11 stands out immediately due to the larger battery, brighter display, NFC support, and potentially stronger gaming-oriented appeal. The Nord CE 6, however, justifies its pricing through cleaner software polish, balanced camera tuning, and a more refined overall user experience. The difference ultimately comes down to whether raw specifications or long-term usability matters more.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 delivers better hardware value for money, while the Nord CE 6 feels like the safer all-around choice for users prioritizing software refinement and consistency.</p>



<p><strong><em>Disclaimer:</em></strong><strong><em><br></em></strong><em>Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, launch timing, and applicable taxes. Always check whether the listed price is for a China unit or a global/international variant when purchasing.</em></p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>OnePlus Nord CE 6 focuses on balance. It combines a smooth AMOLED display, dependable cameras, a large battery, and a polished software experience into a package that feels practical for long-term use. It is the kind of smartphone that quietly performs well across every category without heavily specializing in one area.</p>



<p>iQOO Z11 5G, on the other hand, pushes specifications aggressively. A massive 9020mAh battery, brighter display, NFC support, and larger memory options make it extremely attractive for gamers, heavy users, and multimedia-focused buyers. The device clearly prioritizes endurance and power efficiency, and that approach works well in this segment.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>OnePlus Nord CE 6 is the better-balanced smartphone for users wanting refinement and consistency, while the iQOO Z11 5G is the stronger pick for pure value, battery life, and hardware-focused performance. Both are excellent mid-range options, but the iQOO Z11 feels slightly more ambitious overall.</p>

Actual performance, camera results, battery life, and overall experience may vary depending on real-world usage, software updates, and individual preferences.</em></p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oneplus-ace-6-ultra/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra</a> fits into this list as the brand’s more gaming-focused alternative to the OnePlus 15. It is currently aimed at the Chinese market, but its hardware makes it one of the strongest esports phones in OnePlus’ lineup.</p>



<p>The phone uses the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset, up to 16GB LPDDR5X Ultra RAM, and up to 1TB UFS 4.1 storage. It has a 6.78-inch 1.5K BOE AMOLED display with up to a 165Hz refresh rate.

With the official launch just around the corner, the company has been slowly revealing almost everything about the phone.

<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="881" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--1024x881.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T launch date-" class="wp-image-738101" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--1024x881.jpg 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--300x258.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--768x661.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--1536x1322.jpg 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--696x599.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--1068x919.jpg 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--1920x1652.jpg 1920w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date--488x420.jpg 488w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-launch-date-.jpg 2000w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T </figcaption></figure></div>



<p>So here’s everything you need to know about the iQOO 15T before its launch.&nbsp;</p>



<h3><strong>2K display with high refresh rate</strong></h3>



<p>On the front, the iQOO 15T will feature a 6.82-inch flat display with a 2K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. The panel uses an 8T LTPO structure and BOE’s Q10+ substrate, which should help with smoother refresh rate switching and better power efficiency.</p>



<p>The display is also described as a high-end “Everest” flat screen with very thin bezels and a 2K resolution.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The phone also supports advanced gaming features like 2K resolution combined with 144fps frame interpolation, depending on the title and optimisation.</p>



<h3><strong>Dimensity 9500 and Q3 gaming chip&nbsp;</strong></h3>



<p>At the core of the device is the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/13/iqoo-15t-launch-date-confirmed/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dimensity 9500 chipset</a> from MediaTek. This is paired with iQOO’s self-developed <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/14/iqoo-15t-teased-with-q3-e-sports-chip-full-scene-ray-tracing-2k-144fps-gameplay/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Q3 gaming chip</a>, designed to handle heavy graphics workloads and gaming optimisation.</p>



<p>Together, the system is tuned for sustained performance rather than short bursts. iQOO claims the phone can maintain near full-frame gaming performance for long periods while keeping power consumption under control, even in demanding games like Genshin Impact.</p>



<p>The Q3 chip also enables features like full-scene ray tracing, super-resolution rendering, and smoother frame generation. In supported games, users may even get 2K resolution combined with 144fps output. The iQOO 15T will run OriginOS 6 based on Android 16.</p>



<p>As is common in flagships now, the iQOO 15T uses a silicon-carbon battery of 8000mAh. Despite the large capacity, the phone still supports 100W fast wired charging. iQOO also includes a system called Global Direct Drive Power Supply 2.0, which helps reduce heat when the phone is charging and gaming at the same time.</p>



<h3><strong>Cameras</strong></h3>



<p>For cameras, the iQOO 15T introduces a major upgrade for the brand. It will feature a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/15/iqoo-15t-8000mah-battery-100w-charging-200mp-camera-confirmed/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">200-megapixel main rear camera</a>, which is the first time such a high-resolution sensor is used on an iQOO flagship.</p>



<p>This main camera uses a large sensor and supports CIPA 4.5-level stabilisation, similar to what is found in some Vivo imaging-focused flagships. It also supports 4x lossless zoom, which should help maintain detail when cropping or zooming into images.</p>



<p>Along with the main sensor, the phone also includes a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera. On the front, there is a 16-megapixel selfie camera.</p>



<p>The camera system also supports full focal-length portrait photography and AI-based image enhancements. While iQOO is still clearly a performance-first brand, this setup shows it is also trying to improve its imaging capabilities.</p>



<h3><strong>Design and build</strong></h3>



<p>In terms of design, the iQOO 15T follows the styling of the iQOO 15 Ultra. It comes with a square camera module that has a transparent-inspired look.</p>



<p>The phone will be available in three colour options: Qingyun, Track Edition, and Legend Edition. It weighs around 216 grams, depending on the variant, and measures roughly 8.25mm to 8.4mm in thickness.</p>



<p>Despite the large battery, iQOO has managed to keep the design relatively slim for a device in this category.</p>



<p>The phone also includes practical hardware features like a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, a metal frame, and IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance ratings.</p>



<h3><strong>Price </strong></h3>



<p>There is still no official pricing for the iQOO 15T. However, based on its specifications, it is expected to sit in the upper-premium segment in China.</p>



<p>Global availability is also unclear at the moment. iQOO has not confirmed whether the device will launch outside China.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iQOO</a> announced the iQOO Z11 smartphone in March. Two months later, we are hearing news of the iQOO Z11 Lite. The smartphone has now surfaced on Geekbench, giving an early look at some of its hardware.</p>



<h2><strong>iQOO Z11 Lite Geekbench run</strong></h2>



<p>The phone is listed with the model number I2510 and has managed 549 points in the single-core test and 1,776 points in the multi-core test. These are not flagship-level numbers, which is no surprise, since the Z Lite series usually targets the budget and lower mid-range segment.</p>



<p>The benchmark listing also reveals that the device is powered by an octa-core chip. Two of the cores are clocked at 2.40GHz, while the other six run at 2.00GHz. Geekbench also mentions the Mali-G57 MC2 GPU, which hints that the processor in question is the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-Z11-Lite-Geekbench.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO Z11 Lite Geekbench" class="wp-image-738609" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-Z11-Lite-Geekbench.jpg 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-Z11-Lite-Geekbench-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-Z11-Lite-Geekbench-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-Z11-Lite-Geekbench-696x464.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-Z11-Lite-Geekbench-630x420.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></figure></div>



<p>Interestingly, its predecessor, the iQOO Z10 Lite 5G, also uses the same SoC. Another detail shown in the listing is 8GB of RAM, and the phone is also said to run on Android 16.</p>



<p>This is not the first time the phone has appeared in the leak cycle. Earlier, the same model was spotted on the Bluetooth SIG database, where its name and 44W wired fast charging support were confirmed. It was also seen on the BIS certification site in India, which confirms that the phone is meant for the Indian market.</p>



<p>The Z10 Lite launched at a starting price of Rs 9,999, so we expect its successor to launch in a similar ballpark. Especially given that both share the same chipset. We will keep you in the loop if we get any new updates.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo/">iQOO</a> is starting to reveal more details about the upcoming iQOO Pad6 Pro, and the company is putting a heavy focus on gaming performance ahead of the tablet’s May 20 launch in China.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="768" height="1024" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-768x1024.jpg?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-738479" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-225x300.jpg 225w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-696x928.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-1068x1424.jpg 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-scaled.jpg 1920w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33ur7ci7j32bc334qv5-315x420.jpg 315w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></figure></div>



<p>One of the biggest claims so far is support for 13 native 4K games, which is still relatively uncommon on Android tablets. According to iQOO, some shooting games can run at up to 4K resolution and 144fps in the company’s Monster+ mode, while certain open-world titles support up to 2.7K at 120fps. As always, actual gameplay performance will likely vary depending on the title, but the specs are clearly aimed at mobile gamers who want something beyond standard tablet gaming.</p>

<p>The display itself also looks fairly impressive on paper. The Pad6 Pro features a large 13.2-inch 4K LCD panel with a 144Hz refresh rate, up to 1200 nits brightness, and Dolby Vision support. Between the high resolution and refresh rate alone, the tablet seems positioned somewhere between a gaming device and a portable media machine.</p>



<p>Powering the device is the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset paired with up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. iQOO is also highlighting a large internal cooling system to help sustain performance during longer gaming sessions. The company even claims AnTuTu scores exceeding 4.44 million points, although benchmark numbers do not always translate directly into real-world experience.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="768" height="1024" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-768x1024.jpg?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-738476" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-225x300.jpg 225w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-696x928.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-1068x1424.jpg 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-scaled.jpg 1920w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/007B27Qzgy1id33za6hvdj32bc3341ky-315x420.jpg 315w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></figure></div>



<p>Battery life could end up being another major selling point here. The Pad6 Pro packs a massive 13,000mAh battery with support for 90W fast charging, which should at least help offset the power demands of a large high-refresh-rate 4K display. Audio also seems to be part of the package, with an 8-speaker setup designed for a more immersive gaming and media experience.</p>



<p>While the hardware shares a lot in common with the Vivo Pad6 Pro, iQOO appears to be marketing this version more aggressively toward gamers and performance-focused users. The tablet will reportedly launch in color options including Crystal Gray and Silver Wing.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/13/iqoo-15t-launch-date-confirmed/">iQOO 15T</a> is equipped with the largest battery in the flagship lineup — an ultra-slim 8,000mAh battery paired with 100W fast charging. It supports Global Direct Drive Power Supply 2.0, which helps reduce heat while gaming and charging simultaneously. The durable high-capacity single-cell battery is designed to deliver all-day battery life, from morning classes to bedtime.</p>



<p>Moving on to the optics, the iQOO 15T will, for the first time on an iQOO flagship phone, feature a 200-megapixel large-sensor super main camera capable of delivering highly detailed shots even when zooming in. It also supports the same CIPA 4.5 professional-grade stabilisation found on Vivo’s imaging flagship phones, along with 4x lossless zoom for clearer shots at both short and long distances. Other features include full focal-length portrait photography and AI-powered imaging tools.</p>



<p>Recent reports have revealed that the iQOO 15T will feature a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens alongside the primary camera, as well as a 16-megapixel front-facing camera. The device will ship with OriginOS 6-based Android 16.</p>



<p>On the front, the iQOO 15T will feature a 6.82-inch 2K flat display with support for a 144Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it will be <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/13/iqoo-15t-launch-date-confirmed/">powered by the Dimensity 9500 Monster Edition</a> chipset for improved gaming performance. The inclusion of the self-developed <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/14/iqoo-15t-teased-with-q3-e-sports-chip-full-scene-ray-tracing-2k-144fps-gameplay/">Q3 e-sports chip</a> will enable full-scene ray tracing, super 2K resolution, and 2K + 144fps gaming in select titles. At present, there is no clarity on whether the iQOO 15T will launch in markets outside China.</p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="968" height="259" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-79.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-738369" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-79.png 968w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-79-300x80.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-79-768x205.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-79-696x186.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 968px) 100vw, 968px" /></figure>



<p>It was <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/21/iqoo-16-settles-with-165hz-screen-200mp-or-50mp-main-camera-still-undecided/">reported last month</a> that iQOO has yet to finalize the iQOO 16’s primary camera and is currently AB testing 200-megapixel and 50-megapixel options. In today’s leak, the tipster stated that the engineering prototype of the device is equipped with a 50-megapixel primary camera featuring a large 1/1.3-inch sensor, paired with a periscope telephoto camera that uses a medium-sized sensor.</p>



<p>The tipster did not mention anything about the iQOO 16’s ultra-wide camera. However, it appears that the device may continue to feature triple 50-megapixel cameras on the back.</p>



<p>Under the hood, the iQOO 16 will feature the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8-elite-gen-6-pro">Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro</a> (tentative name), which is said to carry the part number SM8975. On the display front, the device is expected to feature a 6.85-inch Samsung display with <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/04/iqoo-16-2k-display-leak/">a 2K resolution</a> and a 165Hz refresh rate.</p>



<p>At present, there is no concrete information about the iQOO 16’s battery capacity. However, it is likely to feature a battery larger than 8,000mAh. The device is expected to run Android 17 with OriginOS 7 layered on top. Its base variant with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage may cost around <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/04/oneplus-16-iqoo-16-and-redmi-k100-pro-all-tipped-to-launch-at-higher-starting-prices/">5,000 Yuan (~$730)</a>.</p>

<p>The upcoming <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/13/iqoo-15t-launch-date-confirmed/">iQOO 15T</a> has now been officially confirmed for a May 20, 2026 launch in China at 19:00 local time. One of the biggest highlights is the new Dimensity 9500 &#8220;Monster Edition&#8221; chip, which was co-developed with MediaTek. <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo/">iQOO</a> says the chip works together with its self-developed &#8220;Monster super-core engine&#8221; to improve gaming performance, with the company claiming a 34% boost in frame-rate stability.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="611" height="815" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-14-121639.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-738239" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-14-121639.png 611w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-14-121639-225x300.png 225w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-14-121639-315x420.png 315w" sizes="(max-width: 611px) 100vw, 611px" /></figure></div>



<p>The phone also includes iQOO’s new Q3 e-sports gaming chip, which enables features like full-scene ray tracing, 2K super-resolution, and simultaneous 2K + 144FPS gaming in supported titles. As usual, real-world performance will matter more than marketing numbers, but iQOO is clearly pushing the device as a serious gaming-focused flagship.</p>



<p>On the front, the iQOO 15T is expected to feature a large 6.82-inch 2K flat display with 8T LTPO technology and a 144Hz refresh rate. The panel also supports full-screen always-on display functionality and hardware-based circular polarization for improved eye comfort.</p>



<p>The design appears a bit more experimental compared to previous iQOO phones as well. Official teasers show a transparent-style rear camera module that the company refers to as a “futuristic” design.</p>



<p>Battery life could end up being another major selling point. iQOO says the 15T packs the largest battery ever used in one of its flagship phones, coming in at 8000mAh while still maintaining a relatively slim body.</p>



<p>For cameras, the device is confirmed to use a 200MP main sensor with CIPA 4.5-level stabilization, along with support for 4x lossless zoom and up to 40x hybrid zoom.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="852" height="480" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/videoframe_25397.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-738240" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/videoframe_25397.png 852w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/videoframe_25397-300x169.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/videoframe_25397-768x433.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/videoframe_25397-696x392.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/videoframe_25397-746x420.png 746w" sizes="(max-width: 852px) 100vw, 852px" /></figure>



<p>There is still no official word on pricing yet, but with the combination of high-end gaming features, a large 2K display, and an unusually massive battery, the iQOO 15T is shaping up to be one of the more interesting Android flagships launching in China this month.</p>

<h3><strong>iQOO 15T specifications (rumored)</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="640" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-1024x640.png?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T" class="wp-image-737804" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-1024x640.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-300x188.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-768x480.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-696x435.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-1068x668.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-672x420.png 672w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T.png 1470w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T</figcaption></figure>



<p>As per the China Telecom listing, the iQOO 15T will house a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/04/iqoo-15t-key-specs-leak/">6.82-inch OLED screen</a>, which, according to other <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/08/new-iqoo-15t-leak-reveals-three-editions-confirms-flagship-specs/">reports</a>, will offer a 2K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. On the front, it will feature a 16-megapixel selfie camera, while the back panel will house a 200-megapixel + 50-megapixel dual-camera setup.</p>



<p>The images available in the listing reveal a flat display and a raised <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/06/iqoo-15t-image-surfaces-ahead-of-expected-launch-this-month/">square-shaped camera module</a> on the back. The rest of the design appears minimalist.</p>

<p>The iQOO 15T will be powered by the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/dimensity-9500">Dimensity 9500</a>, which is listed as model number MT6993 in the China Telecom listing. It will come preloaded with Android 16, which will have a layer of OriginOS 6 on top.</p>



<p>According to Digital Chat Station’s recent Weibo post, the iQOO 15T will debut with a special “Monster” edition of the Dimensity 9500 chipset, paired with the company’s self-developed Q3 gaming chip. The post further claims that the device delivered strong gaming performance during early testing.</p>

<p>According to the shared benchmark details, the iQOO 15T achieved an average frame rate of 60.2fps while running Genshin Impact for 30 minutes at 60fps+ extreme settings in a 26-degree room temperature environment. The test also reportedly recorded a 1% low frame rate of 57.8fps, a minimum frame rate of 58fps, and an average power consumption of 4.99W</p>



<p>Coming back to the China Telecom listing, it also reveals May 20 as the iQOO 15T’s release date. The said event will also see the arrival of other devices, such as the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/07/iqoo-15t-pad-6-pro-tws-5i-pre-orders-china/">iQOO Pad 6 Pro and TWS 5i earbuds</a>.</p>



<p>It will arrive in multiple configurations, including 8GB+256GB, 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+256GB, and 16GB+512GB. It will pack a massive 8,000mAh battery with support for 100W wired charging. Reports suggest that it may lack wireless charging support. </p>

<p>According to the tipster, the upcoming <a href="https://wwww.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-neo-12">iQOO Neo 12</a> may feature a 2K+ resolution display and the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8-elite-gen-5">Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5</a> chipset. The leak also suggests that iQOO is currently evaluating two cooling approaches for the device, including an external accessory-based cooling solution and an active cooling system integrated into the phone.</p>



<p>At present, iQOO is teasing the iQOO 15T flagship phone, which will launch later this month in China. Reports have revealed that it will feature a 6.83-inch AMOLED screen offering a 2K resolution along with a 144Hz refresh rate. It will have a 16-megapixel front camera and a 200-megapixel + 50-megapixel dual-camera setup on the back.</p>



<p>Under the hood, the iQOO 15T will feature the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/dimensity-9500">Dimensity 9500</a> chip and an 8,000mAh battery with 100W wired charging, but it will lack wireless charging support. The phone will arrive in multiple configurations, such as 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+256GB, 16GB+512GB, and 16GB+1TB.</p>



<p>The 15T will come with other features, such as an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor, a metal middle frame, and an IP68/69-rated dust and waterproof chassis. It is expected to arrive in three shades, namely Qingyun, Legend, and Track Edition.</p>

<p>The upcoming iQOO 15T has surfaced in another round of leaks ahead of its expected launch in China later this month. </p>



<p>A new tip from known leaker <em>Digital Chat Station </em>reconfirms several key specifications of the device, including its display, battery, cameras, and charging support.</p>



<h2><strong>iQOO 15T Specifications (Rumored)</strong></h2>



<p>According to the latest leak, the iQOO 15T has cleared all the required certifications for release in the mainland. </p>



<p>The phone is tipped to feature a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/04/iqoo-15t-key-specs-leak/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">6.83-inch 2K OLED flat display</a> with a 144Hz refresh rate. On the front, the smartphone may include a 16-megapixel selfie camera, while the rear is expected to house a dual-camera setup with a 200-megapixel primary sensor and a 50-megapixel secondary camera.</p>



<p>Powering the phone will be the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MediaTek Dimensity </a><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2025/09/23/mediatek-dimensity-9500-specs-benchmarks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">9500</a> chipset, an 8000mAh battery, and 100W charging support.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="768" height="1024" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-768x1024.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T teaser" class="wp-image-737492" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-225x300.jpg 225w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-696x928.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-1068x1424.jpg 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-315x420.jpg 315w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser.jpg 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T&#8217;s teaser</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>New is the detail that the phone will launch in five variants, including 12GB + 256GB, 12GB + 512GB, 16GB + 256GB, 16GB + 512GB, and a top-end 16GB + 1TB variant.</p>



<p>The leak also mentions three editions of iQOO 15T — Qingyun, Legend, and Track Edition. If we take cues from the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/vivo-iqoo-13/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iQOO 13</a>, the Legend model likely features BMW W Motorsport branding on a white back panel. Whereas the Track Edition could be a sleek, dark, racing-inspired option. </p>



<p>Other tipped features include a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, full-level water resistance, and a metal middle frame.</p>



<p>Earlier leaks additionally suggested support for 8K video recording, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, IP68 and IP69 ratings, and an X-axis linear motor. However, iQOO has not officially confirmed the full specifications yet.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="516" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T image" class="wp-image-737435" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image.jpg 516w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image-258x300.jpg 258w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image-361x420.jpg 361w" sizes="(max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T&#8217;s leaked image</figcaption></figure></div>

<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo/">iQOO</a> has officially launched the new Z11 and Z11x in Malaysia, bringing the standard model outside China for the first time. And looking at the specs, battery life is very clearly the main focus here.</p>



<p><strong>iQOO Z11 specifications:</strong></p>



<p>The regular iQOO Z11 is the more premium of the two, and honestly, the first thing most people will notice is the massive 9,020mAh battery. That’s unusually large even by current standards. What’s interesting is that iQOO still managed to keep the phone relatively slim at 8.25mm and reasonably manageable at 213g. Charging goes up to 90W, and there are a few extra battery-related features as well, including bypass charging and long-term battery health protection.</p>

<p>The phone also gets a large 6.83-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. Brightness can apparently hit 5,000 nits in certain conditions, though as usual, that number likely applies to small HDR highlights rather than full-screen use.</p>



<p>Under the hood is Qualcomm’s <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2025/08/20/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-launched/">Snapdragon 7s Gen 4</a> chip, replacing the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/01/15/mediatek-dimensity-8500-launch-specs-features/">Dimensity 8500</a> used in the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/26/iqoo-z11-launch-china-9020mah-battery-165hz-display-dimensity-8500/">Chinese variant</a>, paired with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. Benchmark comparisons from NanoReview <a href="https://nanoreview.net/en/soc-compare/qualcomm-snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-mediatek-dimensity-8500">suggest</a> the Dimensity 8500 delivers noticeably stronger CPU and GPU performance.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="906" height="880" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-dimensity-8500-nanoreview.jpg?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-737557" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-dimensity-8500-nanoreview.jpg 906w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-dimensity-8500-nanoreview-300x291.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-dimensity-8500-nanoreview-768x746.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-dimensity-8500-nanoreview-696x676.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/snapdragon-7s-gen-4-vs-dimensity-8500-nanoreview-432x420.jpg 432w" sizes="(max-width: 906px) 100vw, 906px" /></figure></div>



<p>iQOO is also using a fairly large vapor chamber cooling setup here, likely because the phone is being positioned partly toward mobile gamers. The cameras are decent on paper, though clearly not the main selling point. You get a 50MP Sony IMX882 primary camera, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 32MP front camera with 4K recording support.</p>



<p><strong>iQOO Z11x specifications:</strong></p>



<p>The Z11x sits lower in the lineup but keeps a surprisingly similar overall approach. It swaps the AMOLED panel for a 6.76-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and uses MediaTek’s Dimensity 7400-Turbo chipset instead. Battery capacity drops to 7,200mAh, though that’s still a large capacity for a smartphone in 2026.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-1024x576.jpg?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-737556" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-300x169.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-696x392.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d-746x420.jpg 746w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/1dd9802e18b6a6ce0df6b3324658945d.jpg 1500w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure></div>



<p>Charging is reduced to 44W, but the phone still keeps the IP68 and IP69 ratings. Camera hardware includes a 50MP Sony IMX852 main sensor, a 2MP depth camera, and a 32MP selfie shooter.</p>



<p><strong>Pricing and availability:</strong></p>



<p>Pricing in Malaysia for the standard Z11 starts at RM1,899 for the 8GB + 256GB version, while the 12GB + 256GB model is priced at RM2,199. The Z11x starts at RM1,299 for the 8GB + 128GB variant, while the 256GB version comes in at RM1,599.</p>



<p>Both phones are already available through the company’s official website in Malaysia. As part of a limited 10-day launch offer, the base variants are currently discounted to RM1,599 for the Z11 and RM1,099 for the Z11x.</p>

<p>Starting today, <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">iQOO</a> has started receiving pre-orders for its upcoming flagship smartphone, the iQOO 15T, in China. Alongside the phone, the company has also opened reservations for the iQOO Pad 6 Pro tablet and iQOO TWS 5i earbuds.

<h3><strong>iQOO 15T: What to expect</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1080" height="1440" data-id="737492"  src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T teaser" class="wp-image-737492" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser.jpg 1080w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-225x300.jpg 225w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-696x928.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-1068x1424.jpg 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-teaser-315x420.jpg 315w" sizes="(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T&#8217;s teaser</figcaption></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="516" height="600" data-id="737435"  src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T image" class="wp-image-737435" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image.jpg 516w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image-258x300.jpg 258w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image-361x420.jpg 361w" sizes="(max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T&#8217;s leaked image</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p>The teaser image shared by iQOO highlights the slim profile of the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15t">iQOO 15T</a> and hints at a large rear camera module. The company is also offering multiple pre-order benefits in China, including extended warranty support, battery-related benefits and trade-in offers. Apart from this, the teaser does not confirm hardware specifications yet.</p>



<p>However, known tipster Digital Chat Station recently <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/06/iqoo-15t-image-surfaces-ahead-of-expected-launch-this-month/">shared an alleged image</a> of the phone’s rear panel, suggesting that the iQOO 15T may borrow its design language from the iQOO 15 Ultra. The image revealed a square camera module paired with a flat metal frame. On the front, the smartphone is expected to offer a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/04/iqoo-15t-key-specs-leak/">6.83-inch 2K flat display</a> with a 144Hz refresh rate and an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner.</p>



<p>The iQOO 15T is also tipped to arrive with MediaTek’s upcoming Dimensity 9500 chipset, which is expected to be based on TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process. In terms of optics, leaks suggest a 200-megapixel Samsung HP5 primary camera with OIS support and full-pixel autofocus.</p>



<p>The device is also rumoured to support 8K video recording. Battery details point towards an 8,000mAh unit with support for 100W wired fast charging. Other expected features include Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, IP68 and IP69 ratings, and an X-axis linear motor.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO Pad 6 Pro, TWS 5i incoming</strong></h3>

</figure>



<p>Alongside the smartphone, iQOO has also teased the iQOO Pad 6 Pro in a green color option. The teaser image confirms a slim design with a circular dual-camera setup at the back. The company is also promoting accessory and exchange-related offers for early buyers.</p>



<p>As per <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/28/iqoo-15t-pad-6-pro-neo-11-series-specifications-leaked/">recent reports</a>, the tablet may feature a 13.2-inch 4K LCD display and could run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. It is also expected to offer up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage, along with a 13,000mAh battery supporting 90W fast charging. This device is likely to be similar to the Vivo Pad 6 Pro, which debuted in March in China.</p>



<p>The iQOO TWS 5i earbuds have also surfaced through official teaser images, revealing an in-ear design with stem-style earbuds and a black-and-gold charging case. The teaser mentions up to 50 hours of battery life and 42ms low-latency gaming mode.</p>



<p>At present, there’s no telling whether these devices will be released globally.</p>

<p>iQOO 15T has been in the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/05/04/iqoo-15t-key-specs-leak/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">rumor mills</a> for a while now. A new rumor today is giving us a first look at the device, or more like a part of it. </p>



<p>Reliable insider <em>Digital Chat Station (DCS)</em> from Weibo shared a back image of the iQOO 15T showing the square camera module. The device, at least from what’s visible in the leak, borrows heavily from the brand’s Ultra series design language.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="516" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 15T image" class="wp-image-737435" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image.jpg 516w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image-258x300.jpg 258w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/iQOO-15T-image-361x420.jpg 361w" sizes="(max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px" /></figure></div>



<p>The camera module has two visible lenses along with the flashlight, while the rim has a knurled texture. The device has metal frames confirmed by the antenna lines, while this seems to be the silver shade of the iQOO 15T. </p>



<p>On the front, the leak hints at a 6.83-inch flat display with a 2K resolution. The tip also claims a 144Hz refresh rate, which is the same as the iQOO 15 Ultra. The camera module is led by a 200-megapixel main sensor, which <em>DCS</em> is the first for any iQOO flagship. However, details about its other rear cameras remain under wraps</p>



<h2><strong>What else can you expect?</strong></h2>



<p>There are also early expectations around performance and battery. Previous rumors suggest the device may run on a<a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Dimensity 9500</a> chipset and could include a large 8000mAh battery with support for 100W fast charging.</p>



<p>Apart from this, iQOO is also expected to announce a flagship tablet called the iQOO Pad 6 Pro. The phone and tablet could launch together, likely this month.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The large-screen device is said to feature a 13.2-inch LCD screen with support for 4K resolution, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5chip, 16GB of RAM, 612GB of storage, and a 13,000mAh battery with 90W fast charging support. It may come in three shades: Man Dao, Grey Crystal, and Silver Wing.</p>

<p>AnTuTu’s latest Android performance rankings for April are in, and not much has changed from last month. The same phones are at the top with <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iQOO</a> still leading the pack with iQOO 15 Ultra.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15-ultra/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iQOO 15 Ultra</a> is the best performing phone for April with a score of 4,126,940. Close behind is the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iQOO 15</a> with 4,102,621. Both devices rely on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip with 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, and are tuned aggressively for performance with a good thermal management.&nbsp;</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTUTU-flagship-phone-ranking-April.jpg?x44794" alt="AnTUTU flagship phone ranking April" class="wp-image-737151" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTUTU-flagship-phone-ranking-April.jpg 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTUTU-flagship-phone-ranking-April-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTUTU-flagship-phone-ranking-April-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTUTU-flagship-phone-ranking-April-696x464.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTUTU-flagship-phone-ranking-April-630x420.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></figure></div>



<p>Right behind them is the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/zte-nubia-red-magic-11-pro-plus/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Red Magic 11 Pro+</a>, scoring 4,098,742. It uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 too, but has 24GB RAM paired with 1TB storage.&nbsp;</p>



<p>What stands out more broadly is the chipset split. Out of the top ten Android phones this month, nine are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Ultra Gen5. The only exception is the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oneplus-ace-6-ultra/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra</a>, which uses MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 and ranks sixth in the chart.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Compared to March, the overall structure hasn’t changed dramatically. The iQOO 15 Ultra was already in first place then, even posting a slightly higher score of 4,174,911. Devices like the Red Magic 11 Pro+ and iQOO 15 were also present in the upper tier, though their positions have adjusted slightly.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>AnTuTu mid-range phones and tablets ranking for April</strong></h2>



<p>The mid-range, or what AnTuTu classifies as “sub-flagship,” tells a different story. Here, MediaTek has a stronger foothold. The <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/vivo-iqoo-z11/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iQOO Z11</a> leads this category with 2,323,047 points, powered by the Dimensity 8500. It’s followed by the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/honor-power-2/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Honor Power2</a> and <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oppo-k15-pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Oppo K15 Pro</a>, both also running on Dimensity chips.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTU-mid-range-phone-ranking-April.jpg?x44794" alt="AnTuTU mid-range phone ranking April" class="wp-image-737152" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTU-mid-range-phone-ranking-April.jpg 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTU-mid-range-phone-ranking-April-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTU-mid-range-phone-ranking-April-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTU-mid-range-phone-ranking-April-696x464.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTU-mid-range-phone-ranking-April-630x420.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></figure></div>



<p>On the tablet side, performance is increasingly mirroring flagship phones. The Vivo Pad 6 Pro takes the top spot with a score of 4,095,813. It’s followed by the Legion Tablet Y700 5th Generation and the Oppo Pad 5 Pro. All three use the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip.&nbsp;</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTu-tablet-ranking-April.jpg?x44794" alt="AnTuTu tablet ranking April" class="wp-image-737153" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTu-tablet-ranking-April.jpg 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTu-tablet-ranking-April-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTu-tablet-ranking-April-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTu-tablet-ranking-April-696x464.jpg 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/AnTuTu-tablet-ranking-April-630x420.jpg 630w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></figure></div>



<p>Looking back at March, the tablet category has seen a small shift at the top, with Lenovo’s Legion tablet previously holding first place. Now, Vivo has moved ahead, though the overall performance range remains largely similar.</p>

<p>A couple of new flagship phones, including the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">iQOO</a> 15T, are expected to hit the Chinese market this month. It is speculated that it may rival the likes of the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra and Redmi K90 Max in its home market. Recently, tipster Digital Chat Station shared key details about the iQOO 15T, and now a new leak has emerged, revealing a few more details about it.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO 15T specifications tipped</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="233" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-1024x233.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-737131" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-1024x233.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-300x68.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-768x175.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-1536x349.png 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-696x158.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10-1068x243.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/image-10.png 1562w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T key specs tipped</figcaption></figure>



<p>Starting from the front, the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15t">iQOO 15T</a> will reportedly pack a massive 6.82-inch AMOLED panel delivering a 2K resolution along with a 144Hz refresh rate. Like its rivals, the 15T is said to feature the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">Dimensity 9500</a> chipset.</p>



<p>It is no slouch in the battery department, as it is said to pack a huge 8,000mAh battery. While it is expected to support 100W wired charging, it will reportedly lack wireless charging.</p>



<p>For photography, it will feature a 200-megapixel Samsung HP5 primary camera. However, details about its other rear cameras remain under wraps. The handset is also said to feature a metal frame.</p>



<p>Apart from this, iQOO is also said to be working on a new Neo 11 series phone for the Chinese market. While its specifications are yet to be revealed, it is said to be an incremental upgrade over the existing model.</p>



<p>Apart from these phones, iQOO is also expected to announce a flagship tablet called the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/28/iqoo-15t-pad-6-pro-neo-11-series-specifications-leaked/">iQOO Pad 6 Pro</a>.

<p>Flagship smartphones in this price range are no longer just about specs; they’re about personality and priorities. The Oppo Find X9s Pro and iQOO 15 take two very different approaches despite sitting at a similar price point in India. One leans heavily into camera innovation and a refined, compact feel, while the other pushes raw power, display tech, and performance-focused features. This comparison matters for buyers who want clarity between a balanced flagship experience and a spec-driven powerhouse, especially when both options look equally compelling on paper.</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>The Oppo Find X9s Pro leans toward a compact flagship approach with a refined, premium build and strong IP ratings, making it feel more manageable and comfortable for daily use. The iQOO 15, on the other hand, takes a bolder route with a larger footprint, premium materials, and even a color-changing rear panel option that adds visual flair. Both devices offer solid durability, but the iQOO feels more experimental, while the Oppo feels more polished and practical.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>The Oppo features a sharp LTPO AMOLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and good peak brightness, delivering smooth visuals and balanced colors. However, the iQOO 15 pushes things further with higher resolution, significantly higher peak brightness, and support for Dolby Vision and advanced HDR formats. This results in a more immersive and vibrant viewing experience, especially for streaming and gaming.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Oppo Find X9s Pro is better suited for those who prefer a compact, balanced flagship feel. The iQOO 15 stands out for display excellence and visual impact, making it the more immersive option overall.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>The Oppo Find X9s Pro runs on the Dimensity 9500, delivering flagship-level performance with strong efficiency and smooth multitasking. It feels fast and reliable for most users. The iQOO 15, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, clearly targets peak performance with higher clock speeds and a more powerful GPU. This translates into better sustained gaming performance and future-proofing. The difference is noticeable under heavy workloads, where the iQOO pulls ahead.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>Both phones pack large silicon-carbon batteries, but Oppo slightly edges ahead in capacity. Still, iQOO compensates with faster 100W wired charging and useful features like bypass charging, which is especially beneficial for gamers. Oppo’s wireless charging is faster, making it more convenient for mixed usage. Each takes a different approach—one prioritizes endurance, the other flexibility and speed.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO 15 is the stronger performer with better raw power and charging versatility. The Oppo Find X9s Pro remains a solid choice for balanced performance and slightly better battery endurance.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>The Oppo Find X9s Pro takes a bold approach with dual 200MP sensors, focusing heavily on detail, zoom clarity, and advanced imaging features like Hasselblad tuning. It delivers a more “flagship camera-first” experience with strong computational photography. The iQOO 15 uses a triple 50MP setup with a periscope lens, offering consistent performance across all lenses. While it may not match Oppo’s sheer resolution, it provides reliable color balance and versatility. Oppo feels more experimental and premium, while iQOO feels controlled and consistent.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>Both devices feature similar 32MP selfie cameras with 4K video support. The output is sharp and usable in most lighting conditions, with minimal difference between the two. Oppo’s tuning may lean slightly toward richer tones, while iQOO keeps things more neutral.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Oppo Find X9s Pro is the better choice for those who prioritize high-resolution photography and advanced camera features. The iQOO 15 delivers dependable, all-round camera performance without pushing extremes.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>The Oppo Find X9s Pro is priced at around $870 (₹73,000), while the iQOO 15 comes in at about $600 (₹73,000). Despite the large gap in USD pricing, both devices fall into a similar price bracket in India due to regional pricing differences, taxes, and market strategies. This makes the comparison more interesting, as buyers in India are essentially choosing between two differently positioned flagships at the same cost.</p>



<h3><strong>Value for Money</strong></h3>



<p>At this price point, the iQOO 15 offers exceptional value with a more powerful chipset, superior display, and faster charging. It feels like a performance-focused flagship at a competitive price. The Oppo Find X9s Pro justifies its pricing through premium camera hardware, compact design, and a more refined overall experience. It appeals more to users who prioritize photography and usability over raw specs.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO 15 delivers better value on paper, especially for performance-focused users. The Oppo Find X9s Pro feels worth it for those who prioritize camera innovation and a more balanced flagship experience.</p>



<p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong> While the iQOO 15 and OPPO Find X9s Pro share an identical base launch price of ₹72999 in India, their market positioning differs. The iQOO 15 is frequently available at a lower effective price through aggressive bank offers and discounts, whereas the OPPO Find X9s Pro often maintains its premium pricing and scales significantly higher for top-tier storage variants. Actual prices may vary based on retailer, current promotions, and specific model configurations.</p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>Oppo Find X9s Pro stands out with its dual 200MP camera system, Hasselblad enhancements, and compact flagship approach. It feels like a device designed for photography enthusiasts who also want a manageable form factor. The iQOO 15, meanwhile, focuses on raw power, next-gen display technology, and gamer-friendly features like bypass charging. Its feature set feels more aggressive and performance-driven.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15 is the better choice for most users, offering stronger performance, a superior display, and better overall value at the same ₹73K price point. The Oppo Find X9s Pro still stands out for its advanced camera system and more refined, compact feel, but unless photography is the top priority, the iQOO 15 makes more sense as a complete and future-proof flagship. </p>

Actual performance, camera results, battery life, and overall experience may vary depending on real-world usage, software updates, and individual preferences.</p>

<p>The global version of the iQOO Z11 has now surfaced on its first benchmark, and it looks a bit different from the one that launched in China.</p>



<p>A new Geekbench listing for the device, carrying the model number I2512, confirms that the phone will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 globally. Its <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/vivo-iqoo-z11/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chinese counterpart</a> uses a MediaTek Dimensity 8500 chip instead. </p>



<h2><strong>What the Geekbench listing reveals</strong></h2>



<p>The listing confirms the chip identity through the CPU and GPU combo. The chipset is built around an octa-core CPU configuration consisting:</p>



<ul><li>1 core clocked at 2.71GHz</li><li>3 cores at 2.40GHz</li><li>4 cores at 1.80GHz</li></ul>



<p>Graphics duties are handled by the Adreno 810 GPU, paired with 12GB of RAM. The device is also listed as running Android 16.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="496" height="600" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Global-iQOO-Z11-Geekbench.jpg?x44794" alt="Global iQOO Z11 Geekbench" class="wp-image-736907" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Global-iQOO-Z11-Geekbench.jpg 496w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Global-iQOO-Z11-Geekbench-248x300.jpg 248w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Global-iQOO-Z11-Geekbench-347x420.jpg 347w" sizes="(max-width: 496px) 100vw, 496px" /></figure></div>



<p>In terms of raw numbers, the phone posts a single-core score of 1,214 and a multi-core score of 3,091 on Geekbench.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Despite the chipset, the global model may share the same battery and charging specs. The Chinese Z11 packs a massive 9,020mAh unit. It also supports 90W wired charging and includes features like reverse charging.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>Certifications hint at a wider launch</strong></h2>



<p>The global iQOO Z11 has already appeared on multiple certification platforms, including Indonesia’s SDPPI and Thailand’s NBTC. These are usually early signs that a launch isn’t too far off.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="499" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-1024x499.png?x44794" alt="iQOO Z11" class="wp-image-732262" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-1024x499.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-300x146.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-768x374.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-1536x749.png 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-696x339.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-1068x521.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-862x420.png 862w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855-533x261.png 533w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-27-014855.png 1666w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO Z11 (China)</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>What’s missing, at least for now, is any listing in India. That could mean a delayed rollout, or simply that iQOO is prioritizing other devices first. There’s also the possibility that the company is spacing out releases to avoid overlap with upcoming Vivo-branded phones.</p>



<p>Either way, the Geekbench adds another piece to the puzzle. The global iQOO Z11 is on the way. It just might not be the same phone that debuted in China.</p>

<p>Last month, a leak revealed that <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">iQOO</a> could be working on two flagship phones powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite and Dimensity 9500 chipsets. At the time, it was speculated that these devices could be part of the Neo 11 series. However, newer leaks have suggested that the brand’s next flagship phone will be called the iQOO 15T. Now, a new Weibo post from reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has surfaced, shedding more light on the company’s upcoming devices for the Chinese market.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO 15T and iQOO Pad 6 Pro specifications leaked</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="403" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239-1024x403.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-736519" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239-1024x403.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239-300x118.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239-768x302.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239-696x274.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239-1068x420.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-239.png 1157w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO Neo 15 and Pad 6 Pro details leaked</figcaption></figure>



<p>According to information shared by the tipster, iQOO could unveil the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15t">iQOO 15T</a> as early as May in China. The leak suggests that the smartphone may feature a large 6.82-inch flat display with a 2K resolution. It is also tipped to be powered by the upcoming MediaTek <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">Dimensity 9500</a> chipset.</p>



<p></p>



<p>For photography, the device could include a 200-megapixel camera. In the comments section of the post, the tipster further claimed that the iQOO 15T may pack an 8,000mAh battery.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="183" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241-1024x183.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-736522" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241-1024x183.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241-300x54.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241-768x138.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241-696x125.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241-1068x191.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-241.png 1156w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>The same leak also revealed details about the upcoming iQOO Pad 6 Pro tablet. The device is said to feature Qualcomm’s <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8-elite-gen-5">Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5</a> chipset paired with up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. It may arrive with a massive 13.2-inch 4K LCD display and could house a 13,000mAh battery with support for 90W fast charging.</p>



<p>The tablet is also tipped to feature an eight-speaker setup for an enhanced multimedia experience. The leak mentions that the device may be offered in multiple color options, including Man Dao, Grey Crystal, and Silver Wing editions.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO Neo 11 series in the works</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="142" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240-1024x142.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-736521" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240-1024x142.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240-300x41.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240-768x106.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240-696x96.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240-1068x148.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-240.png 1164w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>In addition, the tipster hinted that the iQOO Neo 11 series may arrive later than the iQOO 15T. While specific details about the Neo 11 lineup remain under wraps, the leak suggests that the series could bring minor iterative upgrades over its predecessor. There is a possibility that this device could feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a 6.83-inch 2K LTPS display with support for a 165Hz refresh rate, and an approximately 8,000mAh battery. The final moniker of this device remains unclear, so it is yet to be seen whether it will be called the iQOO Neo 11S or Neo 11 Pro.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">iQOO</a> is reportedly working on a new flagship phone powered by the Dimensity 9500 chip for the Chinese market. While there is no clarity on the phone’s final moniker, it is said that it could be an iQOO 15 series device. Today, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station shared a new Weibo post revealing details about the alleged device.</p>



<h3><strong>Key details leaked </strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="360" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-1024x360.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-736082" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-1024x360.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-300x106.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-768x270.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-696x245.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-1068x376.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191-1194x420.png 1194w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-191.png 1529w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>According to the leak, the device could be the final sub-brand model in its lineup to adopt the new flagship processor. While it <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/25/iqoo-neo-11-pro-pro-plus-2k-display-leak/">appears to be a Neo 11 series phone</a>, people in the comments section are claiming it could launch as the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/08/iqoo-15t-with-built-in-cooling-could-be-in-works/">iQOO 15T</a>. But a recent report claimed that the iQOO 15T will have a built-in cooling fan, but DCS has denied the inclusion of this feature on the iQOO phone that he leaked today. Therefore, readers are advised to wait for further reports for more details about the device.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="172" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-1024x172.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-736083" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-1024x172.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-300x50.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-768x129.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-1536x258.png 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-696x117.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192-1068x179.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-192.png 1578w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="354" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-1024x354.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-736084" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-1024x354.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-300x104.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-768x265.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-1536x531.png 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-696x240.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-1068x369.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193-1216x420.png 1216w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-193.png 1563w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>According to the leak, the device could be the final sub-brand model in its lineup to adopt the new flagship processor. While it <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/25/iqoo-neo-11-pro-pro-plus-2k-display-leak/">appears to be a Neo 11 series</a> phone, some users in the comments section speculate that it could launch as the iQOO 15T. However, a recent report claimed that the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/08/iqoo-15t-with-built-in-cooling-could-be-in-works/">iQOO 15T would feature a built-in cooling fan</a>, a detail that Digital Chat Station has reportedly denied for the device mentioned in today’s leak. Therefore, readers are advised to wait for further reports for more clarity about the handset.</p>



<p>On the front, the device is expected to feature a 6.83-inch flat OLED panel with a 2K resolution and an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor. It is also tipped to pack a massive single-cell battery with a rated capacity of 7,845mAh, which could be marketed as an 8,000mAh battery.</p>



<p>For durability, the device is expected to feature a metal middle frame and carry IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance. The tipster also claims the phone may include a 200-megapixel primary camera, although the camera specifications are reportedly not finalized yet. The handset is currently expected to debut in May.</p>



<p>Since it features the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/dimensity-9500">Dimensity 9500</a> chipset, it is expected to rival devices such as the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/redmi-k90-max">Redmi K90 Max</a> and the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oneplus-ace-6-ultra">OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra</a>, which are also rumored to use the same chip.</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max focuses on durability and practicality with Dragon Crystal Glass, strong water resistance (IP66/IP68/IP69), and a functional dual-material back option. It feels rugged and purpose-built rather than flashy. iQOO 15, on the other hand, leans more premium with a cleaner finish, an optional glass back, and a unique color-changing panel that adds visual personality. Both use aluminum frames, but iQOO’s finish feels slightly more refined, while Redmi’s build feels tougher and more utility-driven.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max pushes a 165Hz AMOLED panel with Dolby Vision and extreme brightness, making it excellent for gaming and outdoor visibility. iQOO 15 counters with a sharper 2K LTPO AMOLED, richer color depth (1B colors), and better brightness scaling. The lower refresh rate is offset by smarter LTPO optimization.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15 wins for display sharpness and premium feel, while Redmi K90 Max stands out for durability and ultra-smooth visuals.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max uses the Dimensity 9500, which is highly efficient and tuned for sustained performance, especially in gaming scenarios. iQOO 15’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is clearly more powerful, delivering higher peak performance and better GPU output. In real-world usage, iQOO feels faster in heavy tasks, while Redmi remains consistently stable under load. That difference becomes noticeable during long gaming sessions or multitasking.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi dominates with a massive 8550mAh battery, easily lasting well beyond a day. Charging is fast at 100W, with added reverse wired and wireless charging flexibility. iQOO 15 offers a smaller 7000mAh battery but compensates with 100W wired and 40W wireless charging, plus bypass charging for gamers. The endurance gap is noticeable, but iQOO offers more versatility.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15 wins on raw performance, but Redmi K90 Max clearly leads in battery life and long-term endurance.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max keeps things simple with a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP secondary lens. It performs well for everyday photography but lacks versatility. iQOO 15 offers a much more advanced triple 50MP setup, including a periscope telephoto with 3x optical zoom and a capable ultrawide. This gives it a clear edge in zoom, detail, and creative flexibility. The difference is noticeable when switching between focal lengths.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi’s 20MP selfie camera is decent and consistent for casual use. iQOO steps ahead with a 32MP sensor and 4K video support, delivering sharper and more detailed selfies. It feels more aligned with premium expectations.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15 wins comfortably with a more versatile and flagship-level camera system, while Redmi K90 Max focuses on basic reliability.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>Redmi K90 Max is priced at around $415 (₹35,000), while iQOO 15 sits significantly higher at about $600 (₹73,000). The gap is substantial and clearly positions these devices in different value brackets. Redmi targets performance and battery-focused buyers on a tighter budget, while iQOO aims at premium flagship users.</p>



<h3><strong>Is the Price Justified?</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max offers exceptional value with its massive battery, high refresh rate display, and strong performance. It feels like a power-user device at a mid-range price. iQOO 15 justifies its cost with a superior processor, better display resolution, advanced cameras, and longer software support. The higher price reflects a more complete flagship experience.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max is the better value-for-money option, while iQOO 15 justifies its price with premium features.</p>



<p><em>Disclaimer:</em><strong><br></strong><em>Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, and applicable taxes.</em></p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>Redmi K90 Max stands out with its massive battery, 165Hz display, and robust durability features, making it ideal for heavy users and gamers who prioritize endurance. iQOO 15 differentiates itself with a powerful Snapdragon chipset, an advanced triple camera system, a 2K LTPO display, and longer software support. It feels more future-proof and well-rounded overall.</p>



<h3><strong>Specs Winner vs Real-World Value</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15 clearly wins on specs with a stronger chipset, better cameras, and a sharper display, but that doesn’t automatically make it the better choice for everyone. Redmi K90 Max costs almost half yet still delivers strong performance, a much larger battery, and solid everyday usability. The gap in real-world experience isn’t as big as the price difference suggests, which is why Redmi often feels like the smarter buy, while iQOO 15 makes more sense for those who want a complete flagship experience without budget concerns.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>Redmi K90 Max is the smarter choice for value, battery life, and sustained performance. iQOO 15 is better suited for users seeking flagship-level performance, camera versatility, and a more premium overall experience.</p>



<p><strong>Disclaimer: </strong>This comparison is based on the specifications provided and is intended for general informational purposes. Actual performance, camera results, battery life, and overall experience may vary depending on real-world usage, software updates, and individual preferences.</p>

<p>Earlier today, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/21/iqoo-16-settles-with-165hz-screen-200mp-or-50mp-main-camera-still-undecided/">shared</a> a Weibo post revealing the key specifications of what appears to be the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-16">iQOO 16</a>. Now, a new leak has surfaced, revealing the first details about the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-16-ultra">iQOO 16 Ultra</a>.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO 16 Ultra’s first details emerge</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="226" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-1024x226.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-735569" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-1024x226.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-300x66.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-768x170.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-1536x339.png 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-696x154.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156-1068x236.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-156.png 1543w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO 16 Ultra&#8217;s first details emerge</figcaption></figure>



<p>According to tipster Smart Pikachu, <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category./iqoo">iQOO</a> is expected to follow a dual-variant strategy, including a standard version and a gaming-focused variant. The latter is likely to debut as the iQOO 16 Ultra and could feature a built-in cooling fan, aimed at enhancing sustained performance during gaming. The leak also hints that new gaming accessories are currently in development, further strengthening the brand’s focus on performance-centric devices.</p>



<p>To recall, the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15">iQOO 15</a> and <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15-ultra">iQOO 15 Ultra</a> offered largely similar specifications, with the Ultra variant differentiating itself through a larger battery and a gaming-oriented design, including an integrated fan. There is a strong possibility that iQOO could follow a similar approach with the iQOO 16 and 16 Ultra, reserving the more aggressive gaming features for the Ultra model.</p>



<h3><strong>iQOO 16 specifications (rumored)</strong></h3>



<p>As per Digital Chat Station, the iQOO 16 is expected to feature a 6.85-inch flat display supplied by Samsung Display, possibly using a power-efficient Pol-less panel. The screen is being tested with a 165Hz refresh rate and is likely to support 2K resolution, indicating a strong emphasis on high-performance visuals.</p>



<p>On the performance side, the device is tipped to be powered by the upcoming <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8-elite-gen-6-pro">Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro</a> (SM8975) chipset. This next-generation processor is expected to deliver significant improvements in both efficiency and gaming capabilities.</p>



<p>For photography, prototype units are said to include a periscope telephoto camera, while the primary camera is currently under evaluation between a 200-megapixel sensor and a 50-megapixel sensor, with the possibility of a larger sensor size. The setup may also include a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.</p>



<p>Notably, the upcoming <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/oneplus-16">OnePlus 16</a> is expected to be a key rival, with similar specifications such as a 165Hz 1.5K OLED panel, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset, and a 200-megapixel triple camera system. Both devices are expected to debut in China around October.</p>

A new report might finally settle that debate.</p>



<p>Fresh details from a reliable tipster, <em>Digital Chat Station</em>, reveal a handful of specifics around the phone’s chipset, display, and camera setup. And things are still being decided. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="900" height="224" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/iQOO-16-leak.jpg?x44794" alt="iQOO 16 leak" class="wp-image-735531" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/iQOO-16-leak.jpg 900w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/iQOO-16-leak-300x75.jpg 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/iQOO-16-leak-768x191.jpg 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/iQOO-16-leak-696x173.jpg 696w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></figure></div>



<p>According to the leak, the iQOO 16 could be powered by Qualcomm’s SM8975 chip, which is expected to debut as the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8-elite-gen-6-pro" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro</a>. It aligns with earlier reports suggesting the device will land as the top model in iQOO’s lineup, likely launching in China later this year.</p>



<h2><strong>iQOO 16 Specifications</strong></h2>



<p>Up front, the phone is said to feature a 6.85-inch 2K display with a flat panel. The screen is described as an SDC “Pol-less” panel, shorthand for Samsung Display’s newer tech that replaces the traditional polarizer layer with a color filter structure to boost brightness while improving power efficiency.</p>



<p>As for that refresh rate? The tipster pins it at 165Hz, not the previously rumored 185Hz. That’s still a step up from the 144Hz panel on the iQOO 15, and likely more than enough for even the most demanding mobile gamers.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="640" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-1024x640.png?x44794" alt="iQOO 15 Ultra" class="wp-image-724918" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-1024x640.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-300x188.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-768x480.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-696x435.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-1068x668.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1-672x420.png 672w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/iQOO-15-Ultra-1.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15 Ultra</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>The camera story, however, seems a bit less settled. The latest leak suggests the current engineering unit includes a mid-range periscope telephoto camera, rather than a top-tier zoom system. </p>



<p>There’s also some indecision around the main shooter. iQOO is reportedly testing two configurations: one featuring a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/08/the-iqoo-16-and-oneplus-16-could-both-jump-to-200mp-main-cameras/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">200-megapixel sensor</a>, and another pairing a 50-megapixel sensor with a larger physical size. </p>



<p>As usual, it’s unclear which direction will make the cut for the final hardware. The trade-off between resolution and sensor size suggests iQOO is still fine-tuning its priorities.</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>Both phones use a glass front with a plastic frame and back, but the OnePlus Nord 6 feels slightly more refined due to its Crystal Guard protection and cleaner finish. It also adds MIL-grade certification alongside IP68/IP69K, giving it a more rugged, confidence-inspiring appeal. The iQOO Z11 is still solid and durable, but it leans more toward a practical build rather than a premium-feel focus. Subtle design polish on the Nord 6 makes it feel a bit more flagship-like in daily use.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>Both devices offer AMOLED panels with a 165Hz refresh rate, making scrolling and gaming extremely smooth. The iQOO Z11 pushes ahead in peak brightness with up to 5000 nits, making it better suited for harsh outdoor usage. However, the Nord 6 counters with better HDR tuning, higher PWM dimming, and slightly more balanced color output. The viewing experience feels more consistent and less aggressive on the eyes over long usage.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The iQOO Z11 wins on raw brightness, but the Nord 6 delivers a more polished and comfortable display experience overall.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>The OnePlus Nord 6 clearly leads with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, which is closer to flagship-level performance. It handles gaming, multitasking, and heavy workloads more effortlessly. The iQOO Z11’s Dimensity 8500 is powerful for its segment, but it doesn’t match the sustained performance or GPU strength of the Nord 6. Over time, the Nord 6 feels more future-proof and stable under load.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>This is where the iQOO Z11 shines. With a massive 9020 mAh battery and faster 90W charging, it is built for endurance. The Nord 6 still impresses, especially in India, with its 9000 mAh battery, but its 80W charging is slightly slower. The Nord adds bypass charging, which gamers may appreciate, but the Z11’s sheer capacity makes it a battery monster.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>Nord 6 wins in performance, while iQOO Z11 dominates battery life. The better choice depends on whether power or endurance matters more.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>Both phones feature a 50 MP main sensor with OIS, delivering similar baseline image quality in good lighting. However, the Nord 6 includes an 8 MP ultrawide lens, making it more versatile for landscapes and group shots. The iQOO Z11 lacks a proper ultrawide, which limits flexibility. Image processing on the Nord 6 also feels slightly more refined, with better color consistency and HDR balance.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>The Nord 6 takes a clear lead with a 32 MP selfie camera that supports 4K video recording. It captures sharper images and offers better detail for video calls and content creation. The iQOO Z11’s 16 MP front camera is decent but feels more basic, especially with limited video capability. The difference becomes noticeable for social media users.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The Nord 6 is the clear winner in cameras thanks to better versatility and a stronger selfie setup.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>The OnePlus Nord 6 is priced around ₹39,000, while the iQOO Z11 comes in significantly lower at about ₹31,000. This creates a noticeable ₹8,000 gap, placing them in slightly different value brackets. The Nord 6 positions itself as a near-flagship experience, while the Z11 focuses on aggressive pricing with strong core specs.</p>



<h3><strong>Is the Price Justified?</strong></h3>



<p>The Nord 6 justifies its higher price with a better chipset, stronger cameras, a cleaner UI experience, and more premium tuning overall. It feels like a long-term investment. On the other hand, the iQOO Z11 offers exceptional value for money, especially with its massive battery and capable performance. It delivers more hardware per rupee, even if some features are trimmed.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>For value seekers, the iQOO Z11 is hard to beat. For a more complete and premium experience, the Nord 6 justifies its higher price.</p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>The OnePlus Nord 6 stands out with its Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip, better camera system, higher-end display tuning, and features like bypass charging and advanced connectivity options. It feels more balanced and flagship-inspired.</p>



<p>The iQOO Z11, meanwhile, focuses on delivering maximum battery capacity and strong performance at a lower price. Its brightness levels and large battery make it ideal for heavy users who prioritize endurance above everything else.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The OnePlus Nord 6 is the better all-rounder with stronger performance, cameras, and polish. The iQOO Z11 is the smarter budget pick with unmatched battery life and solid everyday performance. The final choice depends on whether a premium experience or maximum value matters more.</p>

<h2><strong>Design and Display</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Build and Feel</strong></h3>



<p>OnePlus Nord 6 uses a practical approach with a plastic frame and back, but adds durability perks like IP68/IP69K and even MIL-grade certification. It feels sturdy and purpose-built rather than premium. iQOO 15R, on the other hand, leans into a more flagship-like design with a glass or fiber back and an aluminum frame, giving it a more refined in-hand feel. The difference is noticeable, iQOO feels more premium, while Nord feels more rugged and functional.</p>



<h3><strong>Display Quality</strong></h3>



<p>Nord 6 pushes a 165Hz AMOLED panel with strong brightness and excellent HDR tuning, making it very fluid and vibrant. iQOO 15R counters with a slightly lower 144Hz refresh rate but significantly higher peak brightness and better PWM dimming, which improves eye comfort. In real-world use, iQOO’s panel looks more polished, while Nord’s feels faster and more aggressive.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15R wins on premium feel and display refinement, while Nord 6 appeals more to users who value durability and ultra-smooth scrolling.</p>



<h2><strong>Specifications Including Battery</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Performance</strong></h3>



<p>Nord 6 is powered by Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, delivering flagship-level performance with strong efficiency and stable gaming. However, iQOO 15R steps ahead with the newer Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, bringing a clear boost in raw power and future-proofing. The difference may not always be obvious in daily use, but under heavy gaming or multitasking, iQOO feels sharper and faster.</p>



<h3><strong>Battery and Charging</strong></h3>



<p>Nord 6 stands out massively with a huge battery, especially the India variant, offering exceptional endurance. Charging is decent but not class-leading. iQOO 15R uses a slightly smaller battery but compensates with much faster 100W charging, making it more convenient for quick top-ups. Nord focuses on longevity, while iQOO prioritizes speed.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15R wins on performance and charging speed, but Nord 6 is clearly better for long-lasting battery life and endurance-focused users.</p>



<h2><strong>Camera</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Main and Secondary Lenses</strong></h3>



<p>Both phones feature a 50MP main sensor with OIS, but iQOO 15R uses a larger sensor, which gives it an edge in detail, dynamic range, and low-light shots. The ultrawide cameras are similar on paper, though iQOO’s processing feels slightly more refined. Nord 6 still delivers consistent and reliable results, but iQOO images tend to look more flagship-like.</p>



<h3><strong>Selfie Camera</strong></h3>



<p>Both devices offer 32MP front cameras with 4K video support. Nord 6 includes PDAF, which helps with sharper focus in selfies and videos. iQOO delivers good output, but Nord feels more dependable for consistent front camera results, especially in motion scenarios.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>iQOO 15R wins overall with better main camera performance, while Nord 6 holds a slight advantage in selfie reliability and focus consistency.</p>



<h2><strong>Pricing</strong></h2>



<p>OnePlus Nord 6 is priced at around ₹39,000 ($460), while iQOO 15R comes in higher at approximately ₹45,000 ($530). The gap is noticeable, especially in the mid-premium segment, where pricing heavily influences decisions.</p>



<h3><strong>Is the Price Justified?</strong></h3>



<p>Nord 6 offers excellent value with a massive battery, high refresh rate display, and solid performance at a lower price. It feels like a well-balanced package for most users. iQOO 15R justifies its higher price with a more powerful chipset, better build quality, faster charging, and a more refined display experience. The premium is not excessive, but it is clearly targeted at performance-focused buyers.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>Nord 6 is the better value-for-money option, while iQOO 15R justifies its higher price with stronger flagship-level upgrades.</p>



<p><em>Disclaimer:</em><strong><br></strong><em>Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, and applicable taxes.</em></p>



<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>



<p>Nord 6 stands out with its massive battery, ultra-smooth 165Hz display, and durability-focused design, making it ideal for heavy users and long sessions. iQOO 15R differentiates itself with next-gen performance, premium materials, brighter display, and faster charging, giving it a more flagship-like appeal overall.</p>



<h3><strong>Verdict</strong></h3>



<p>The choice depends on priorities. Nord 6 feels more practical and endurance-focused, making it perfect for users who want longevity and smooth daily performance at a lower price. iQOO 15R, however, is the better pick for those who want cutting-edge performance, a premium feel, and faster charging. It delivers a more complete flagship experience, while Nord delivers smarter value.</p>



<p><strong>Disclaimer: </strong>This comparison is based on the specifications provided and is intended for general informational purposes. Actual performance, camera results, battery life, and overall experience may vary depending on real-world usage, software updates, and individual preferences.</p>

<p>Vivo has almost wrapped up its Android 16-based OriginOS 6 rollout and has already started working on Android 17. In fact, the company has already released Android 17 beta builds for a few devices via the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/07/vivo-launches-android-17-developer-preview-supported-devices-and-installation-steps/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Developer Preview program</a>.</p>



<p>Now that Android 17 betas are out for Vivo phones, you may be wondering if your Vivo or iQOO phone is eligible for the Android 17 upgrade. We’ve included the complete list in this post. Review it below to find out if yours made the cut.</p>



<p>Note that Vivo hasn’t officially announced the list yet. So, this one is based on the current update policy and the company&#8217;s past track record.</p>

<p>If you can spot your Vivo or iQOO phone on the list above, it’s almost certain to receive the Android 17 update once the rollout begins, which will likely come with the OriginOS 7 skin at the top.</p>



<p>Many Vivo phones lack a clear software update policy. For these devices, it’s hard to know if they will be upgraded to Android 17. So, to keep the list as accurate as possible, we didn&#8217;t include devices we weren’t confident about, but they might still have a chance. So, if your device isn’t on the list, it’s best to wait until the official list is released.</p>

<p>As for Vivo’s Android 17 Developer Preview program, it’s currently open for Vivo X300 Pro and iQOO 15, with no official confirmation about its expansion to more devices. Meanwhile, Google continues to refine Android 17 to prepare for a stable release around June 2026. It has already released three betas, and as a result, the upcoming Android OS has reached platform stability.</p>

<h3><strong>iQOO 16’s chipset revealed</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="280" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-1024x280.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-733974" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-1024x280.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-300x82.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-768x210.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-1536x421.png 1536w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-696x191.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-1068x292.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58-1534x420.png 1534w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-58.png 1596w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p>Reports have revealed that Qualcomm’s next-generation 2nm chip will arrive in two versions. While the official monikers are yet to be confirmed, these chipsets are tentatively dubbed the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 (SM8950) and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro (SM8975), respectively.</p>



<p>As mentioned above, DCS claims that the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-16">iQOO 16</a> will be powered by the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/tag/snapdragon-8-elite-gen-6-pro">Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro</a>. The tipster also suggests that the device will feature a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/04/iqoo-16-2k-display-leak/">2K Samsung display</a> with a flat design and a very high refresh rate. A recent report revealed that the screen may support a <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/30/iqoo-16-185hz-samsung-display-specs-leak/">165Hz or 185Hz refresh rate</a>.</p>



<p>The rest of the iQOO 16’s specifications are also expected to be powerful, according to the tipster, but they remain under wraps. Since it is expected to debut later this year, it may come preloaded with OriginOS 7 based on Android 17.</p>



<p>The same source recently revealed that its rear camera setup will be headlined by <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/08/the-iqoo-16-and-oneplus-16-could-both-jump-to-200mp-main-cameras/">a 200-megapixel main camera</a>. This sensor will be joined by a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.</p>



<p>Its base model is expected to feature a 12GB + 256GB configuration. With the rise in memory costs, this variant <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/04/oneplus-16-iqoo-16-and-redmi-k100-pro-all-tipped-to-launch-at-higher-starting-prices/">could be priced at 5,000 Yuan</a>, which is approximately $730.</p>



<p>In related news, iQOO is expected to launch the iQOO 15T by mid-2026 in China. One of the major highlights of this phone is that it may come equipped with <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/04/08/iqoo-15t-with-built-in-cooling-could-be-in-works/">a built-in cooling fan</a>.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/category/iqoo">iQOO</a> appears to be working on a new performance-focused flagship, as a new leak hints at another model in the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-15">iQOO 15</a> series.

<h3><strong>iQOO 15T moniker and expected launch timeframe</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="776" src="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-1024x776.png?x44794" alt="" class="wp-image-733842" srcset="https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-1024x776.png 1024w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-300x227.png 300w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-768x582.png 768w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-696x528.png 696w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-1068x810.png 1068w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-554x420.png 554w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48-80x60.png 80w, https://www.gizmochina.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image-48.png 1380w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>iQOO 15T could in works</figcaption></figure>



<p>A Weibo post by tipster Digital Chat Station suggests that the new device could be called the iQOO 15T. It is expected to borrow certain high-end features from the Ultra model, including a built-in cooling fan.</p>



<p>This move indicates that iQOO may be looking to bring advanced thermal management to more accessible devices. In terms of timeline, the iQOO 15T is likely to launch before the iQOO 16, which is expected to debut in China around October. This places the possible arrival of the 15T somewhere in mid-2026.</p>



<p>Apart from the iQOO 15T, the brand is also said to be working on the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/2026/03/25/iqoo-neo-11-pro-pro-plus-2k-display-leak/">Neo 11 and Neo 11 Pro</a>. These devices are expected to feature a 6.83-inch 2K OLED display and could be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite and Dimensity 9500 chipsets, respectively. They may pack batteries of up to 8,000mAh and include a metal middle frame along with an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor, suggesting a focus on both performance and build quality.</p>



<h2><strong>iQOO 16: What’s known so far</strong></h2>



<p>As for the <a href="https://www.gizmochina.com/product/iqoo-16">iQOO 16</a>, early reports indicate that it may arrive with a 2K Samsung display supporting refresh rates of up to 165Hz or even 185Hz. The device is also expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset. In terms of cameras, it could include a 200-megapixel primary sensor, accompanied by a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.</p>



<p>It is advisable to take this leak with a pinch of salt and wait for more reports to confirm the iQOO 15T’s existence.</p>
