Recently, iQOO hinted at the upcoming release of a new smartphone, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+, in China. Although the company has showcased its design, details about the specifications and launch date remain undisclosed. However, some insights from Chinese insiders provide an idea of what to anticipate with this device.
Key Specifications of the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ (Speculated)
According to leaks, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ is expected to be a step-up from the Z9 Turbo, which was launched earlier this year. The Z9 Turbo came with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor and a 6,000mAh battery. In contrast, the Z9 Turbo+ is rumored to house a Dimensity 9300+ chipset and a larger 6,400mAh battery. Like its predecessor, the Plus version is anticipated to include 80W fast charging support.
Despite the increase in battery capacity, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ will reportedly maintain the sleek dimensions of its predecessor, with a thickness of 7.9mm. The weight is expected to slightly rise from 195 grams to 199 grams. The new Plus variant will replace the independent Turbo graphics chip and single-frequency GPS found in the Z9 Turbo with iQOO’s proprietary Q1 gaming chip and dual-frequency GPS support. Other specifications of the Z9 Turbo+ might largely mirror those of the Z9 Turbo. Reports suggest it will be unveiled on September 24.
Display and Camera Features
The Z9 Turbo+ is expected to sport a 6.78-inch flat OLED display offering a 1.5K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and an in-screen fingerprint sensor. It will likely operate on OriginOS 4, built on Android 14.
For photography, the Turbo+ may include a 16-megapixel front camera. Its rear camera setup is speculated to feature a 50-megapixel main sensor and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens. The device might be priced at approximately 2,000 Yuan (~$282) in China.
