iQOO is reportedly planning to expand its Z11 lineup in India once again. After introducing the iQOO Z11x 5G and the recently launched Z11 Lite, the Vivo sub-brand is now preparing to bring the standard iQOO Z11 to the country. As the name suggests, the iQOO Z11 will sit above the Z11x and Z11, offering a more premium experience and hardware.
iQOO Z11 India launch tipped
The iQOO Z11 is expected to debut in August, according to a report by Gadgets360. The handset is also tipped to arrive with the new MediaTek Dimensity 7500 Turbo chipset, making it the first smartphone in India to use the platform. This could be the main difference between the iQOO Z11 in China and India. The iQOO Z11 launched in China with the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 processor. The handset is also expected to feature a 3D curved display, which would be different from the flat panel on the Z11 Chinese variant.
iQOO Z11 specifications (expected)
If iQOO retains most of the Chinese hardware, then we can expect a 6.83-inch 1.5K (2800×1260 pixels) AMOLED display with a 165Hz refresh rate and HDR support. The phone also packs a massive 9,020mAh battery with 90W fast charging support, a 50MP primary camera with OIS, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 16MP selfie camera.
The Chinese variant starts at CNY 2,299 (Rs 32,600 approx) for the 8GB + 256GB model. India pricing remains under wraps, though the device is expected to compete in the upper mid-range segment.
The upcoming Z11 could appeal to users looking for long battery life, fast charging, and a smooth high-refresh-rate display in the mid-range segment. However, you may want to wait for the official India launch to confirm pricing, software features, and whether the battery and camera specifications remain unchanged from the Chinese model.
