The post iQOO 11 Launched in India: SD8 Gen 2, 144Hz 2K Display, 120W Charging, and More appeared first on Gizmochina.

Two 11 series flagships made their debut in just a month: the OnePlus 11 and the iQOO 11. And they are actually sold in the same price range. They are flagship phones, but not premium ones: more like flagship killers. However, they still come with several premium specifications, including very advanced displays and cameras. Given that their prices do not differ so much, a lot of people are wondering which of these phones is the best. That is exactly the reason why we are coming to help. Here you can find a comparison between the main specifications of the OnePlus 11 and the iQOO 11. Note that the iQOO 11 also comes in a Pro variant, while the OP 11 does not. However, the Pro variant is much better than both as it is a top-tier flagship phone, so we won’t include it in this comparison.

OnePlus 11 vs Vivo iQOO 11

Design

Which design should you prefer? It is mostly a matter of taste. Personally, I would go for the OnePlus 11 because its design is more original. It comes with a circular camera module, unlike a lot of phones out there equipped with a square-shaped camera module. Further, it is slightly more compact than its rival and it has a premium glass back. On the other hand, you should note that the iQOO 11 comes in a special color variant dedicated to BMW M Motorsport: it is very suggestive with its vertical stripe reminiscent of a sports car. So if you love cars, then you may prefer this phone to the OnePlus flagship.

Display

The display found on the iQOO 11 is actually better than the one found on the OnePlus 11. It is an AMOLED panel able to show up to one billion colors with a diagonal of 6.78 inches, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3200 pixels, a 144 Hz refresh rate (it is an adaptive refresh rate thanks to the LTPO 4.0 technology), HDR10+ certification, a peak brightness of 1,800 nits, and an in-display fingerprint reader. The OnePlus 11 has an AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ certification, a peak brightness of 1,300 nits, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. You can clearly see from the specifications which one is the best.

Specs & Software

With these two phones, you can actually get the same hardware department. They are fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform built with a 4 nm production process and sporting an octa-core architecture. The chipset is composed of a Cortex X3 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.2 GHz, two Cortex A715 cores, two Cortex A710 cores, three Cortex A510 cores, and an Adreno 740 GPU. Alongside the SoC, there are up to 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 4.0 native storage. The iQOO 11 comes in more configurations (including one with UFS 3.1 native storage), but the highest-end configuration is the same. These devices run Android 13 out of the box with highly customized user interfaces on top: OxygenOS and Funtouch OS / OriginOS, respectively.

Camera

The most advanced camera belongs to the OnePlus 11. It has a triple rear camera composed of a 50 MP Sony IMX890 main sensor with OIS, a 32 MP telephoto shooter with 2x optical zoom, and a 48 MP ultrawide lens, all with the Hasselblad optimizations inside. With the iQOO 11, you can still get a 50 MP main camera with OIS, but the secondary sensors are inferior: there is a 13 MP telephoto lens and an 8 MP ultrawide sensor.

Battery

The battery capacities of these two phones are the same and they are supposed to offer a similar battery life. But the iQOO 11 is able to charge quicker because it supports 120W fast charging instead of just 100W.

Price

The iQOO 11 starts from about $558/€520, while the OnePlus 11 begins at $659/€614. Which one would you pick?

iQOO recently launched the iQOO 11 series in China. There are two devices in the series – iQOO 11 and iQOO 11 Pro. Out of the two, the vanilla model went on sale a few days back in the Chinese market. The iQOO 11 is also officially launching in India on January 10. Although the company has not made any announcements to suggest that the 11 Pro model will be coming anytime soon, fans of the brand will not be disappointed with this device as it shares most of the specifications with the Pro model.

Now, MySmartPrice has revealed the performance of the iQOO 11 on the AnTuTu benchmark. The publication claims that the matrics were obtained from an industry source. Let’s check out the performance of the device.

A screenshot reveals that the iQOO 11 5G manages to score 1,323,820 points overall on the AnTuTu benchmark. This score leaves the current top-ranking Asus ROG Phone 6 behind by more than 200,000 points. This is most likely thanks to the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset at the heart of the iQOO 11. Taking a closer look at the benchmark, the CPU performance hasn’t improved by that much compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, however, the GPU performance has taken a massive leap as we can see that the iQOO 11 scored 607,822 points in the GPU test compared to the 474,844 points of the current no.1 ROG Phone 6.

Additionally, AnTuTu evaluated the device’s RAM and user experience, awarding 2,44,782 and 2,00,229 points, respectively. What’s also interesting is that the chip remained quite cool during the benchmarking process, with peak temperature hitting 31.9 degrees Celsius.

As per teasers and leaks, the lineup consists of two models, namely Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro. Both will have a similar design, however, the vanilla variant will be smaller and sport a flat display instead of a curved panel like the pro version.

The duo will be IP68-rated for dust and water resistance. They will have support for 67W (standard)/120W (pro) wired charging, 50W wireless charging, and 10W reverse wireless charging.

iQOO 11 Series and iQOO Neo 7 SE

The iQOO 11 series and iQO Neo 7 SE were scheduled to launch on December 2. But unfortunately, the event has been now delayed and the new launch date is yet to be announced. The devices will likely debut next week.

According to official teasers and leaks, the iQOO 11 family will consist of iQOO 11 and iQOO 11 Pro. They will look similar with one major difference. The pro model will flaunt a curved display instead of a flat screen like the regular model.

Huawei Enjoy 50z and Nova 10 SE

Huawei scheduled a press conference in China for December 2. This event has been postponed, just like the previously discussed two events. There’s no new date announcement from the company yet but it will most probably take place next week.

The company has confirmed to unveil two handsets at this event, namely Huawei Enjoy 50z and Huawei Nova 10 SE. Both of them are already official in global markets. The former goes by Huawei Nova Y61.

iQOO has been preparing for the launch of its upcoming iQOO 11 series of smartphones in the global market. Hinting towards the same, an upcoming iQOO 11 device has now been spotted on the NBTC certification ahead of its official launch. The device with the model number I2212 has been spotted on the NBTC certification. The device is said to be no other than the unreleased iQOO 11 device. Unfortunately, the certification doesn’t confirm anything about the smartphone.

China and Malaysia will soon host the launch of iQOO 11. The business has announced that its top-tier smartphone would debut in the two nations on December 2. The iQOO 11 Pro 5G will probably also be released by the company at the same time. The characteristics and features of the vanilla model have already begun to be teased by iQOO prior to the formal launch. The iQOO 11 Pro 5G is covered in relatively little detail. The Pro model has not yet been confirmed by the teasers. The gadget has been discovered on the Bluetooth SIG website in the interim.

It is worth mentioning that the smartphone was previously spotted on the Indian BIS certification as well. This confirms that the brand is surely working on the Indian launch of the devices and we may get to see an official announcement regarding the same in the upcoming weeks. We expect the devices to be launched somewhere around the starting months of 2022 i.e. Jan or Feb. Most probably, the device will launch in the month of Jan itself. However, all of this stands out to be an expectation so you can take the information with a pinch of salt!

Apart from this, there isn’t much else we can say about the next gadget. So, we advise you to hold off until the official announcement. That will put all of our questions to rest and provide comprehensive information about the device.
