Insight into iQOO 12 series pricing
Presented in the screenshot above, the iQOO 12 series will commence at a price of 4,299 Yuan (~$590) and will be up for grabs from Nov. 14 onwards. Reports indicate that the base model of the iQOO 12 will boast 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. Consequently, the displayed price is likely tailored for the 12GB+256GB variant of the iQOO 12.
This revelation on pricing has ignited substantial curiosity among internet users. Certain individuals have raised doubts, hinting that this pricing could be a deliberate misdirection to mask the genuine cost of the new device. Nonetheless, it seems plausible that the price is accurate since the Xiaomi 14’s 12GB+256GB variant also aligns with the same price point.
For those uninformed, Vivo’s parent brand, iQOO, is gearing up to introduce the Vivo X100 series in China on Nov. 13. Vivo has officially disclosed that the base model of the Vivo X100 will ship with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage, tagged at a starting price of 3,999 Yuan (~$550). A point of reference reveals a similar pricing structure for Xiaomi 14's entry-level model, offering 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage.
While the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro are set to house the Dimensity 9300 chipset, the iQOO 12 and 12 Pro will showcase the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.
