Vivo’s sub-brand iQoo is planning to getting ready to launch the 15R smartphone in the Indian market later this month. Before the phone arrives, the company has started to reveal its main features and design. A dedicated microsite has been updated to confirm that the iQOO 15R will have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series chipset.
Weeks prior to the iQOO 15R’s launch in India, the Vivo sub-brand iQOO provided teasers regarding its design and features. There will be a Dark Knight colour option for the smartphone. A new microsite on Amazon says that there will also be a blue option, but the name of this colour has not yet been revealed. The device is set to be out on February 24.
A square-shaped module with rounded corners on the back of the phone holds a dual rear camera setup, as shown in the official teaser. This design is reminiscent of the iQOO 15. The back panel also has a checkered pattern and a grey finish that changes colour.

The phone is rumoured to be a rebranded version of the China-exclusive iQOO Z11 Turbo. A 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 144 Hz is one of the things that are expected. The iQOO 15R might have an IP68 + IP69 designation for water and dust resistance. It might also include up to 16GB of LPDDR5x Ultra RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset is probably going to be there.
It should have a dual rear camera system with a 200-megapixel main camera and an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera, as well as a 32-megapixel front camera. The smartphone may also include a 7,600 mAh battery that enables 100 W wired fast charging.

The iQOO Z11 Turbo includes an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner to increase user security. This sensor is a way to confirm someone’s identity. OriginOS, which launched on the iQOO 15 flagship phone in November, is expected to power the device.
The iQOO Z11 Turbo was released in China, and the base model with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage costs CNY 2,699 (which is equivalent to Rs 35,999).
