Anvinraj Valiyathara — Sun, 10 Oct 2021 04:58:42 +0000

Last month, iQOO announced the iQOO Z5 5G smartphone in China and India. Reports have claimed that China will soon receive another Z-series handset called the iQOO Z5x. The alleged Z5x has appeared in the database of the TENAA certification platform with full specifications and images.

A Vivo phone with V2131A has bagged approval from the TENAA authority. It can be said based on a recently seen IMEI database listing that this device may release in the Chinese market with the iQOO Z5x moniker. The listing reveals that the handset measures 163.95 x 75.30 x 8.5mm and weighs 169 grams. The handset is fitted with a 6.58-inch TFT panel with a top-center positioned 8-megapixel selfie camera.

The rear panel of the device is a 50-megapixel + 2-megapixel dual-camera system. The phone runs on Android 11 OS. It is powered by a 2.4GHz octa-core processor and a 4,880mAh rated battery. The 3C certification of this model revealed that it may ship with a 44W fast charger.

iQOO Z5x leak reveals Dimensity 900, 44W fast charging

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Sun, 03 Oct 2021 04:27:32 +0000

iQOO is reportedly working on the iQOO Z5x smartphone, which is likely to go official this month. Last week, a product page went live on the Chinese retailer site, JD.com. The listing did not reveal anything on the specs of the device. However, an IMEI database listing of an upcoming Vivo phone with model number V2131A revealed that it may debut in the market with the iQOO Z5x moniker. Now, a Chinese tipster has revealed some information on the chipset and fast charging capabilities of the Z5x.

According to the tipster, the iQOO Z5x will be powered by the Dimensity 900 chipset and 44W fast charging. This is not really new information since that the V2131A was spotted with the Dimensity 900 SoC at the Play Console last month. The presence of the D900 suggests that the Z5x could be positioned lower than the iQOO Z5, which was recently announced in markets like China and India. While the Z5x is expected to arrive in China, it is unclear whether it will be also landing in India.

V2131A at Play Console

The V2131A has received approval from the 3C authority of China. The 3C listing shows that it is a 5G-ready device, and its retail package may include a 44W fast charger. There is no word on the battery size of the device.

The Play Console listing revealed that the iQOO Z5x’s display could be equipped with a centrally positioned punch-hole. It remains to be seen whether it houses the same 6.67-inch IPS LCD FHD+ 120Hz panel that was made available on the iQOO Z5. The rumor mill is yet to spill information on its cameras. The Z5x is expected to arrive with 8 GB of RAM and Android 11 OS.

Leaker reveals iQOO Z5 will have a pro version

Habeeb Onawole — Sat, 02 Oct 2021 15:35:51 +0000

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.

The Play Console listing further revealed that it will carry support for Full HD+ resolution and boot to Android 11 OS. The Dimensity 900 chipset will be present under the hood of the device along with 8 GB of RAM.

V2131A at Play Console

The V213A smartphone was spotted with a V2130A Vivo phone with identical specs at the Play Console. The V2130A is speculated to debut as the Vivo S10e in China. It is yet to be confirmed whether the other specs of the V213A are identical to the S10e.

In related news, the recently certified iQOO phone with the V2136GA/A model number is rumored to launch as a Neo branded phone in China this month. It is expected to come with specs like a 6.56-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with an in-screen fingerprint scanner, a 3GHz octa-core processor, up to 12 GB of RAM, up to 512 GB of storage, Android 11 OS, a 16-megapixel front camera, a 48-megapixel + 13-megapixel + 13-megapixel triple camera unit, and a 4,500mAh dual-cell battery with 120W fast charging support.

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.
