Full Details
iQOO 15 features a 6.85-inch QHD+ flat OLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate, ensuring smooth visuals and crisp clarity. The display also has LIPO tech for slimmer bezels all around. The new display boasts top-of-the-line specifications with LTPO OLED technology. The display will also have a 6000-nit peak brightness. The display is supplied by Samsung, and it is said that this is Samsung’s most premium display ever, so users can expect exceptional display quality from the iQOO 15.
Under the hood, the smartphone will be powered by the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. iQOO is also bringing its self-developed Q3 chip to enhance graphics processing, frame rates, and overall efficiency.
Battery capacity is also impressive, with leaks suggesting a massive 7000mAh battery paired with 100W fast charging and support for 40W wireless charging.
On the imaging side, iQOO 15 will be a big upgrade compared to its predecessor, mainly because this generation has added a periscope sensor. The device will feature a triple camera setup with a 50MP main camera, a 50MP UW, and a 50MP 3x periscope sensor. Given that iQOO is Vivo’s sub-brand, we can expect the same flagship imaging algorithms from iQOO 15 as Vivo’s flagship phones.
The other highlights of the smartphone include an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, IP 68 dust and waterproof rating, and for the very first time in India, an iQOO phone will come with OriginOS 6 out of the box with 5 years of major Android updates and 7 years of security patches.
