The iQOO 11 has officially won the race to be the first Android smartphone to make the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor international today (December 8, 2022). Like its Pro sibling, it combines this new top-end SoC with new UFS 4.0 storage and cutting-edge LPDDR5X RAM; however, it is the only member of its series to debut both inside and outside China today (December 8, 2022). It also boasts fast 120W charging for a 5,000mAh battery in both regions.
The iQOO 9 and 9 Pro have just launched as 2 of the most powerful Android smartphones of 2022 thus far - albeit in China only. Now, the OEM has announced that it is coming to another market in which it has become quite active: India. Then again, they may or may not come with all their top specs on arrival.
The 9 and 9 Pro are iQOO s latest flagship smartphones. They add the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, the latest E5 AMOLED display tech and a world-first outing of the 50MP ISOCELL GN5 sensor to their line s hallmark 120W charging and BMW-themed finish. Then again, this generation has left the brand s historical reputation for flagship-killing prices behind.
