IQoo, the sub-brand of Vivo, has officially confirmed that it will launch its latest performance-focused smartphone iQoo 13 in India in December 2024. The official news comes from iQoo’s X Page (formerly Twitter). However, the brand has not revealed a launch date, but we should know the exact date in the coming weeks.
iQoo 13 has already debuted on October 30 in China. So there won’t be a big difference spec-wise except for the UI – the global variant will ship with Funtouch OS instead of Origin OS. Coming to the color options, the iQoo 13 homepage is already live on Amazon India, which confirms the color options.
the iQoo 13 will be offered in Legend (with the BMW tricolor pattern) and Alpha colors. However, there is no word on other color options. For example, the iQoo 13 is offered in China in four colors: white, green, gray and black. On the other hand, in India, the homepage currently only displays two color options.
The iQoo 13 landing page on Amazon has confirmed several features of the Indian variant, including the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, control screen and touchscreen Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, Q2 chipset developed by iQoo , and an LTPO AMOLED screen with 2K resolution and 144Hz refresh rate.
Another new feature is the Halo light placed around the camera module of the iQoo 13. As for the specifications, they are practically identical to those of the Chinese version. You will get a triple rear camera setup consisting of a 50MP primary sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. A 32-megapixel selfie camera sits on the front for selfies and video calls.
The device will feature a 6,150mAh battery with 120W wired fast charging support. However, this time again there is no wireless charging support for the Chinese variant, and we can expect the same for the Indian variant.
