Reports have emerged revealing that iQOO is working on a new smartphone called the iQOO Z9. The name and model number of the device was confirmed via a Bluetooth SIG listing, and since then, more details about its specs and features have also surfaced.
iQOO Z9 Spotted on BIS Database
Now, the device has been spotted on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) database, hinting at the fact that the device could launch in India soon. While details about its name and specifications remain undisclosed, it has the same I2302 model number revealed earlier through the Bluetooth SIG listing. The Bluetooth SIG listing confirmed that the phone will be launching with Bluetooth 5.3 as well as 5G connectivity.
Possible Upgrades and Conflicting Reports
Other than that, a leak by tipster Digital Chat Station states that the phone could feature an OLED panel with a 1.5K resolution, a significant upgrade from the previous Z8 series, which had an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is said to be powered by the SM7550 Snapdragon chip, confirming the use of the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset. However, there are conflicting reports about the chipset, with a previous claim suggesting testing with the Density 8300 chipset.
The leak also suggests a 6,000mAh battery for the iQOO Z9, although there is no information about its fast-charging capabilities.
