iQOO Z11 is tipped to launch in India around June 15, 2026, featuring a massive 9020mAh battery.
Unlike the China model, the Indian variant will likely switch to the efficient Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset.
Key highlights include a 1.5K 144Hz AMOLED display, 90W fast charging, and a surprisingly slim 8.25mm profile.
iQOO’s Z series has always had a strong following. The latest buzz started after tipster Abhishek Yadav shared the launch timeline, and the news has since been picked up by multiple tech outlets. iQOO Z11 is coming to India very soon. This could be an interesting mid-range launch, especially because the India variant appears to differ from the China model.
If you’ve been waiting for the next iQOO Z phone and your top priorities are a massive battery and a smooth display, this leak is worth paying attention to. Let’s see what exactly is known based on the leak and the information received officially.
iQOO Z11 India Launch Timeline
What is known now about the launch timeline is very clear. Tipster Abhishek Yadav (@yabhishekhd) has said, iQOO Z11 may launch in India around June 15, 2026. The official date is not yet confirmed, but the teasers and pre-orders are very likely to start in late May or early June.

The Z11 will feature Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 SoC paired with the Adreno 810 GPU and will run Android 16 out of the box. It will be priced under ₹30,000.
Although this smartphone was launched in global markets such as Malaysia on May 6, 2026. According to previous reports, this global variant will be seen in India, so the target of a mid-June launch seems realistic.
iQOO Z11 Global Variant Specifications (which will come to India)
The version that is coming to India is the global version. The expected specs of the global variant have largely surfaced. It has some special highlight features, such as:
- Display: 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED panel, 144Hz refresh rate, with 5000 nits peak brightness support.
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 (with Adreno 810 GPU) – This is the biggest change from the China version. However, the Chinese version has the 8500 chipset which is more powerful than this Snapdragon chip.
- Battery: 9020mAh silicon-carbon cell, 90W fast charging support. The phone is only 8.25 mm thick and weighs about 213 grams. Despite the large battery, the phone is expected to remain relatively slim even with such a large battery.
- Camera: 50MP primary sensor (Sony IMX882, with OIS) + 2MP depth sensor on the rear and a 32MP front selfie camera.
- RAM and storage: 8GB/12GB LPDDR4X RAM + 256GB UFS 3.1 storage.
- Other: Android 16 out of the box (OriginOS 6 / Funtouch OS on top), vapor chamber cooling system, IP68/IP69 rating, side-mounted fingerprint sensor and more.
This version was originally launched in Malaysia (model number Vivo I2512), and is expected to come with the same specs in India.
China Version vs Global/India Variant
This is basically a different variant from the iQOO Z11 launched in China on March 26, 2026. Same series phones, but some changes have been made for the global market. The biggest difference is in the processor – the China version had the MediaTek Dimensity 8500, while the Global/India version will have the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4.
Most of the rest of the hardware (battery capacity, display size, charging speed) has been kept almost the same, but some optimizations (network bands, software tuning) may differ in the global version.
For now, the launch date is still based on leaks, so it’s better to wait for official confirmation. But if these details turn out to be accurate, the iQOO Z11 could become a strong battery-focused option in India’s mid-range segment.
