The iQOO 13 is slowly revealing its features and details. Recently, we caught a glimpse of its elegant design, which includes a flat screen and very thin bezels. A leak from SmartPrix indicates that it might be launched in India on December 5th.
Launch Details
While it is unclear if this date applies to a global release or if China will see it first, iQOO appears to want to minimize the wait for its international fans regarding the new flagship phone.
Key Specifications
Let’s dive into what we’ve learned so far. Inside, the iQOO 13 is expected to be powered by the new Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, along with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. It has also been spotted on Geekbench with this configuration, achieving scores that surpass even the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s overclocked 8 Elite chip.
From a software perspective, the device is likely to run on the freshly launched Android 15-based OriginOS 5.
Camera and Display Features
In terms of camera capabilities, it is anticipated that the iQOO 13 will feature a triple 50MP camera setup on the back, which includes a primary sensor, an ultrawide lens, and a telephoto lens.
The display might be the highlight, as iQOO has confirmed that the iQOO 13 will utilize BOE's advanced Q10 panel. This promises a 2K resolution and a fluid 144Hz refresh rate. The Q10 display is also said to offer higher brightness, increased longevity, and less color deviation than its rivals.
Battery Life and Design
Additionally, the phone is rumored to be powered by a 6150mAh battery, which is expected to support 100W PPS and PD charging. There are also rumors of an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance, and the device may feature a metal frame along with a stylish "Halo" light strip.
Regarding the cost, earlier reports indicated that the iQOO 13 might start at approximately Rs 55,000 in India.
