Affirming speculations lurking in the rumor mill, this would be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 octa-core processor. This would be coupled with equally impressive 12GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage. So, iQOO enters the 12GB RAM club with another Chinese entrant, i.e. Lenovo Z5 Pro GT. Even the upcoming Plus variant of Samsung Galaxy S10.
This raw and powerful device is likely to be fueled by a mammoth 4000mAH battery. Once discharged, you might be able to charge it with a state-of-the-art 44W FlashCharge brick. Vivo also offers USB-C port with this device.
Unlock it and we might be welcomed by Android Pie as its successor is still underway. The image also hints at Super-HDR support for better video experience. Contrary to most Chinese companies, iQOO would come with NFC support. Alas, we couldn’t decide where is iQOO is going with the 4D terminology.
