It seems that iQOO is going to launch its premium smartphone very soon. Recently, information about an iQOO phone has surfaced, which has been talked about MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 chipset and a large battery. According to a post shared by tipster Digital Chat Station, this phone may have a battery of about 8000mAh capacity. Now many are asking whether this will actually be the iQOO 15T or part of some other series. And so far, no official information has come to light about this phone.
Key Specifications (Based on Leak)
According to the leak, the phone will have a 6.83-inch flat OLED display with 2K resolution. It is likely to have a 144Hz refresh rate and an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. The MediaTek Dimensity 9500 may be used as the processor. It is manufactured on TSMC’s 3 nanometer process and is a powerful gaming processor.
In terms of battery, it is a single cell unit with a rated capacity of 7845mAh and may be presented as 8000mAh in marketing.
The camera setup may include a 200MP primary sensor with OIS. There is talk of IP68 and IP69 ratings for durability, along with the possibility of using a metal frame. These specs could take the phone closer to the flagship level, although the full configuration is not yet confirmed.
Naming Confusion: iQOO 15T or Neo Series?
There is some confusion over the name of the phone. Some comments have referred to it as the iQOO 15T, while others say it could be part of the Neo 11 series. Earlier reports had mentioned a built-in cooling fan with the iQOO 15T, but Digital Chat Station has denied that feature in this leaked device. That’s why the name is still uncertain. Both the 15 series and the Neo series have different positioning in iQOO’s lineup, so the final name will be clear at the time of launch.
Expected Launch Time!
According to the leak, the phone could launch in the Chinese market in May 2026. No global launch date is known yet. iQOO is generally known for performance-focused phones, and they are experimenting more with MediaTek’s flagship processors using chipsets like the Dimensity 9500. Many phones in the market have seen 6000 to 10000mAh batteries currently, so if a battery of this size is true, it would be a significant point.
However, all the information is still based on leaks, so the specs, pricing, and other features may change, which will be confirmed only after the official announcement. It is better to wait for the official announcement of iQOO. If the leak turns out to be accurate, this device could become one of the most interesting performance-focused phones of 2026.
