iQOO announced the iQOO Z5 in September in China and India. Last week, it unveiled the iQOO Z5x handset in China. There have been reports that the iQOO Z5 series has a Pro version waiting in line to go official. A Chinese tipster has now claimed that the device that was expected to launch as the iQOO Z5 Pro has been rebadged as the iQOO Neo6 SE.+

The tipster further claimed that that the Neo6 SE could be powered by the Snapdragon 778G+ mobile platform, which was recently announced by Qualcomm. She did not share any information on the other specs of the Neo6 SE but claimed that it will be available in three colors.

iQOO is also speculated to announce another model called the iQOO Neo5s by mid-November. The device is expected to arrive with a 6.56-inch curved edge screen powered by an independent display engine. It is expected to carry support for a 120Hz refresh rate. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform. The device is expected to come with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of built-in storage.

Leaker reveals iQOO Z5 will have a pro version

The iQOO Z5 is the latest smartphone from the Vivo sub-brand, iQOO. After launching in China last week, the phone was announced in India a few days ago. New info has revealed that the manufacturer will launch a pro version of the phone.

A pro model of the iQOO Z5 is reported to be in development

This is a bit of a surprise as the iQOO Z series hasn’t had a pro model since its debut in May 2020. Even the iQOO Z3 didn’t get an x-model like its predecessor, the iQOO Z1. Although, it has been reported that there will be an iQOO Z5x. As a matter of fact, a listing for the phone has appeared on the Chinese retail website, Jingdong.

The news about the iQOO Z5 Pro comes from the Chinese leaker that goes by @Arsenal on Weibo. Save for mentioning that the iQOO Z5 will have a pro version, the leaker didn’t reveal any more details about the smartphone. Nevertheless, we have a few speculations.

The iQOO Z5 Pro will surely pack significant upgrades when compared to the iQOO Z5, so we should see a more powerful chipset inside it such as the Snapdragon 870 chipset or the Dimensity 1100 or Dimensity 1200. We can also expect upgrades in the camera department and maybe even an AMOLED display and support for a much faster charging technology than the 44W the iQOO Z5 offers.

The iQOO Z5 has a 6.67-inch FHD+ LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It is powered by the Snapdragon 778G and is available with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. There is a 64MP main sensor on the back of the phone along with an 8MP ultrawide angle camera, and a 2MP depth sensor. For selfies and video calls, it has a 16MP camera in front. The phone has its fingerprint scanner on the side and packs a 5000mAh battery.

The iQOO Z5x will also have an FHD+ display but it swaps the Snapdragon 778G for the Dimensity 900 5G chipset. It has also been reported that it supports 33W fast charging.

iQOO Z5 series roundup: Specs, Price, Variants, & More – What to Expect!

Zohaib Ahmed — Wed, 22 Sep 2021 13:09:16 +0000

iQOO is gearing up to launch the successor to its Z3 series that was released back in April. The successor comes in the form of the iQOO Z5 series comprised of iQOO Z5, iQOO Z5 Pro, and iQOO Z5x, although the names of the individual devices haven’t been confirmed as of yet. What is confirmed though is that the iQOO Z5 will be coming with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset paired with a UFS 3.1 storage and LPDDR5 RAM, the power to which will be fed via a 5,000mAh battery.

Design & Display

A recently surfaced image of the iQOO Z5 Pro reveals that the device has a punch-hole display aligned to the center. As for the rear, you get a fairly sizeable camera module that is not unlike the ones found on other recent offerings from both iQOO and Vivo.

IQOO Z5 will be sporting an LCD panel that delivers a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixel, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate. The display will also have a DCI-P3 color gamut and support HDR10.

Cameras on the iQOO Z5 series

The iQOO Z5 has been officially confirmed to come with a 64-megapixel primary shooter (Samsung GW3). However, the auxiliary camera setup of the device is still under wraps. There are talks of it inheriting the same 64-megapixel (main) + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple camera unit from the iQOO Z3 5G though. The selfie camera is likely to have a 16-megapixel sensor.

The iQOO Z5’s camera samples suggest that it will be good at capturing shots in any lighting conditions. But of course, actual performance in the hands of the buyers will vary.

Other Specifications

iQOO has already confirmed that the Z5 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 778G chipset, LPDDR5 RAM, and UFS 3.1 storage. The 5,000mAh battery will support 44W rapid charging.

A tipster had claimed that the device may come with Gorilla Glass 5 protection on the front, AG frost polycarbonate panel as the rear, and an aluminum alloy middle frame. The handset will offer other features like a side-facing fingerprint scanner, iQOO UI-based Android 11 OS, Hi-Res Audio, Hi-Res Audio Wireless, rotor motor, and VC cooling for heat dissipation.

Other features include a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, stereo speakers, 3.5mm headphone jack, and 5G connectivity.

Pricing & Availability

iQOO had recently revealed that it would launch the iQOO Z5 in China on September 23. Soon after, the brand confirmed a September 27 launch date for India.

Not many details are currently at hand about the pricing and storage variants, although the Z5 is expected to carry a price tag of around Rs 30,000 (~$407) in India. A tipster had also stated that the device may come in 8 GB/12 GB RAM variants and 128 GB/256 GB storage choices.

iQOO Z5 Pro will be the first-ever ‘Pro’ model in the Z series

Sudarshan Ravichandran — Tue, 07 Sep 2021 14:54:46 +0000

A new vivo group smartphone has been listed on TENAA. The same handset has been also spotted on the IMEI database. The two listings don’t say much about the device, except for its model number, branding, and cellular connectivity options.

iQOO Z3

The vivo group phone that has been found on TENAA and IMEI database has model number V2148A. As per the latter, the device will go official as iQOO Z5 Pro. Whereas, the former says that the smartphone will have support for 5G, in addition to 4G, 3G, and 2G.

Last month, the vanilla model of this handset called iQOO Z5 meant for India was also spotted on the IMEI database. This phone has model number I2018.

Unfortunately, apart from the above-mentioned information, we know nothing about these smartphones. But we can tell that these devices will replace the iQOO Z3.

The first iQOO Z series phone dubbed as iQOO Z1 was launched in May 2020. It was soon followed by a new model called iQOO Z1x a couple of months later.

Interestingly, the brand skipped iQOO Z2 and released iQOO Z3 in March 2021. Unlike the older models, this one also made its way to India a few months back in June.

Now, the company is all set to introduced iQOO Z5 and iQOO Z5 Pro by omitting the ‘4’ moniker as it is considered an omen in China. Also, this is the first time Z series will be getting a Pro variant.
