In February, iQOO unveiled three flagship phones, such as the iQOO 9 SE 5G, iQOO 9 5G, and iQOO 9 Pro 5G. It appears that the company is not done yet with the iQOO 9 series. A new report by PassionateGeekz claims that the company is planning to launch another device named the iQOO 9T. The publication has come across an IMEI database listing of an iQOO phone heading to the Indian market. Its model number is I2021. The listing reveals that its final marketing is iQOO 9T. Unfortunately, there is no information on the specifications and launch timeline for the device.
The iQOO 9T could be iQOO’s weapon to take
on the likes of affordable flagships such as the OnePlus 10 Pro and Realme GT
Neo3 that are soon to launch in India. There is a possibility that it could be
a rebranded version of one of the recent iQOO phones, which debuted in China
recently. A recent report revealed that an iQOO phone with an I2022 model
number was approved by the BIS authority of India. It is believed to be the
Indian variant of the iQOO Neo6, which debuted earlier this month in China.
The iQOO Neo6 comes with a 6.62-inch
AMOLED panel that offers a Full HD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and an
under-display fingerprint scanner. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset powers the
device with up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM. It offers up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1
storage.
The iQOO Neo6 has a 16-megapixel camera
for selfies. Its back panel has an OIS-enabled 64-megapixel main camera, a
12-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 2-megapixel depth assist lens. The phone
runs on the Android 12 OS and has a 4,700mAh battery that supports 80W fast
charging. The device carries a starting price of 2,799 Yuan in the home market.
