The iQOO 15 is set to launch in India and global markets on November 26. The phone was earlier introduced in China in October. Ahead of its India debut, a tipster has leaked the expected pricing and RAM variants of the device. He also claimed that the smartphone briefly appeared on Amazon India, revealing key details before the listing was removed.
The iQOO 15 will launch in India on November 26, 2025, as confirmed by the brand ahead of its global debut. The flagship phone is set to follow its strong China launch and will arrive with top-tier hardware, including the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, a 6.85-inch 2K display, and a powerful 7,000mAh battery. iQOO is also opening pre-bookings before launch, signalling high demand for the device.
Tipster Abhishek Yadav posted on X that the iQOO 15 was spotted on Amazon India. According to the leak, the 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant will cost Rs 72,999. The higher-end 16GB RAM + 512GB model is tipped to be priced at Rs 79,999.
The pricing marks a major jump from the previous generation. The iQOO 13 launched in India at Rs 54,999 for the 12GB + 256GB model, while the 16GB + 512GB variant costs Rs 59,999.
The leaked listing also showed two colour options: Alpha and Legend.
Most features of the Indian variant are expected to match the Chinese model. The iQOO 15 in China runs on the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset paired with a Q3 gaming processor. It offers up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, and comes with OriginOS 6 based on Android 16.
The device features a large 6.85-inch 2K display with a 144Hz refresh rate. It supports up to 2,600 nits peak brightness, 2,160Hz PWM dimming, and DC dimming. It also includes an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor for faster unlocking.
The iQOO 15 packs a triple-camera system with a 50MP primary camera, a 50MP periscope telephoto lens, and a 50MP ultrawide camera. On the front, it carries a 32MP selfie shooter.
The device comes with a massive 7,000mAh battery. It supports 100W wired charging and 40W wireless charging, making it one of the fastest-charging phones in its segment.
The smartphone also includes a 14,000mm² vapour chamber for heat dissipation and holds IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.
Industry observers say the iQOO 15 marks the brand’s shift into the ultra-premium gaming flagship category in India. With a price point close to Rs 80,000, iQOO appears ready to challenge top-end models from Samsung, OnePlus, and Xiaomi.
The combination of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a dedicated gaming chip, a huge vapour chamber, and a 7,000mAh battery signals a new strategy: focusing on professional-level gaming performance rather than only mainstream flagship features.
Analysts say this could position iQOO as a strong competitor in India’s fast-growing gaming smartphone market. The official launch on November 26 will confirm how aggressively the brand plans to take on the high-end segment.
