iQOO 15 Gears Up to Redefine Flagship Power This November
iQOO is ready to shake the premium smartphone space once again. The iQOO 15, set to launch in India this November, is shaping up as one of the most performance-driven flagships of 2025. With a design built for raw power and high-end gaming, the device is eyeing users who refuse to compromise on speed, display quality, or endurance.
Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Takes the Lead
The iQOO 15 will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, the newest in the Elite series. Known for its energy efficiency and heat management, this processor is tuned for high performance and multitasking. Accompanying it is iQOO’s Q3 gaming chip, focused on optimizing frame rates and reducing latency during play. This combination aims to deliver a smoother gaming and multitasking experience than any of its peers in this segment.
Immersive Display Crafted for Power Users
On the front, the iQOO 15 flaunts a 6.85-inch 2K LTPO AMOLED display. It supports a 144Hz adaptive refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and an impressive 6000 nits of peak brightness. The panel is designed with Samsung’s latest M14 material, ensuring better accuracy and lower power consumption. Whether gaming, editing videos, or streaming HDR content, the screen promises stunning clarity with reduced motion blur and superior eye comfort.
Staying Cool Under Pressure
Performance means little without stability. To handle sustained load, iQOO integrates its 8K Ice Dome vapor cooling system. It disperses heat across a large surface area, helping the processor run efficiently even during extended usage. Early reports claim a 47% improvement in heat control compared to the last generation, giving the iQOO 15 an edge for long sessions of gaming, video recording, and live streaming.
Battery That Lasts and Charges Fast
The iQOO 15’s 7,000mAh battery backs its flagship ambitions with robust endurance. The phone will support 100W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging. The company’s Direct Drive Power 2.0 technology ensures lower heat loss during charging, keeping energy use effective. This means less plug time and more performance time, ideal for those who live on speed.
Photography That Matches Performance
For photography lovers, the iQOO 15 will feature a 50MP triple camera setup with an IMX9 primary sensor, a ultra-wide lens, and a periscope telephoto lens offering up to 100x digital zoom. The main sensor will capture detailed shots in dynamic light, while its smarter AI algorithms will tune colors and exposure for a more natural look. On the front, a 32MP camera ensures crisp selfies and clear video calls.
Built for the Modern Flagship Race
The iQOO 15 doesn’t hold back in design either. The smartphone carries an aerodynamic look with a circular rear camera ring lit by an RGB glow and a sleek matte back. It comes with IP68/IP69 protection, making it resistant to water and dust. An ultrasonic fingerprint scanner embedded under the display ensures fast and secure access.
Who Should Be Concerned?
The iQOO 15’s arrival will put OnePlus 15, Galaxy S25, and Xiaomi 15 Ultra on alert. While Samsung may hold an edge in camera technology, iQOO’s promise of speed and efficiency appeals to a different audience—gamers, tech enthusiasts, and professionals who demand sustained performance. Its balance of power and stability might make it one of the most compelling all-rounders of the season.
