The iQOO Z11 is slated to launch in China later this month. The smartphone has been teased with its design, and key details confirmed. The upcoming Z11 is expected to be an affordable alternative to the iQOO Z11 Turbo, which debuted in China earlier this January. Then there’s the iQOO Z11x, which launched in India last month. As the iQOO Z10 is available in India, we expect its successor, the iQOO Z11, to arrive here too. Ahead of its debut, the iQOO Z11 Turbo has surfaced on Geekbench with details about its chipset and performance.
A new Vivo smartphone with the model number V2551A has appeared on Geekbench. The model number is associated with the upcoming iQOO Z11 smartphone. The Geekbench listing gives us an idea of the Z11’s chipset and also its early performance assessment. Based on the listing, the smartphone is running an octa-core chipset (1×3.4GHz + 3×3.2GHz + 4×2.2GHz) with a maximum clock speed of 3.40 GHz. The architecture suggests it’s the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 SoC, a new 4nm chipset announced in early 2026 for flagship-level gaming and performance.
The Geekbench numbers show 6795 multi-core and 1717 single-core scores for the iQOO Z11 Turbo. The multi-core score is particularly high, suggesting efficient multitasking capabilities of the smartphone. This is something we’ll be able to determine properly when the phone is official and proper reviews are done.
The iQOO Z11 is also spotted with 16GB RAM, which could be the top-end variant for the phone.
In terms of design, the iQOO Z11 looks quite different from its predecessor, the Z10. iQOO has replaced the circular camera module with a more trendy and minimalist square-shaped camera island. The iQOO Z11 is also teased to launch as a “performance and endurance superhero”. It’s confirmed to house a large 9,020mAh battery with 90W fast charging support. The handset will get a 6.83-inch OLED display with a 165Hz refresh rate.
These specs do suggest a performance-focused approach for the iQOO Z11, which has been what the Z-series phones represent. The highlights of the Z11 will be its large battery, chipset, and high refresh rate display. The smartphone should appeal to buyers looking for a gaming phone or one that can handle intensive tasks. Although an India debut isn’t confirmed yet, iQOO is expected to bring the phone here too. So, the iQOO Z11 would be worth waiting for, especially if you’re in the market for an upper mid-range phone.
