iQOO 15 unboxed ahead of launch, charging speed downgrade confirmed | Infinium-tech

iQOO will unveil the iQOO 15 at an event in Shenzhen, China on October 20. The brand recently shared some images of the iQOO 15, revealing its color options and giving us a fair idea of ​​the design of the smartphone. Now, the iQOO 15 has appeared in an unboxing video posted by AnTuTu on Weibo, giving us a closer look at the flagship.

We’re looking at the Chinese iQOO 15 Legend Edition, and the video is in Chinese, which we don’t understand, but non-Chinese speakers can still glean some information.

The iQOO 15 comes in a black retail box, and its rear panel, covered with AG frosted glass and has an AF coating, has the iQOO logo with “Monster Inside” text and a blue-red design that symbolizes iQOO’s partnership with BMW M Motorsport for its Legend Edition.

You can also notice that the back panel of the iQOO 15 is flatter than its predecessor, the iQOO 13. The camera island on the back houses three cameras, and its design is similar to the iQOO 13, but the LEDs are now placed around the island ring.

iQOO 15 color options

The iQOO 15 features a punch-hole display on the front, and you can also see antenna lines on the frame of the phone, confirming a metal build. On the right frame of the iQOO 15 is the power button and volume rocker, and at the bottom is the USB-C port, flanked by a microphone, a speaker grill, and a SIM card slot. There’s another speaker at the top, which is joined by a secondary mic and an IR blaster.

The retail box includes a high-quality protective case, and we may see other color models bundled with color-matched cases, which would be nice since the iQOO 13 came with a transparent case.

That said, one thing we find disappointing is that the iQOO 15 will come with a 100W flashcharger, which suggests that the smartphone will have a maximum charging speed of 100W – which is a downgrade compared to the iQOO 13’s 120W charging speed.

trusted tipster digital chat station The iQOO 15 was previously said to feature 100W wired charging, and the inclusion of a 100W power adapter in the phone’s retail package pretty much confirms this. However, it is worth mentioning that the iQOO 15 is rumored to have a 7,000 mAh battery, which if true, would be a welcome upgrade as the global and Chinese models of the iQOO 13 came with a 6,150 mAh battery, while the Indian variant had a 6,000 mAh battery.

You can watch the unboxing video below.

iQOO hasn’t shared a detailed specs sheet of the iQOO 15, but it has confirmed that the smartphone will come with a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, freshly unveiled OriginOS 6, a 6.85″ 144Hz 2K display, and a Q3 gaming chip. Additionally, the iQOO 15 is expected to have IP68 and IP69 ratings and support wireless charging. Has been confirmed.
