iQOO India has confirmed the India launch of its upcoming flagship smartphone – the iQOO 15, set for 26th November, following its debut in China last week. Earlier, Nipun Marya, CEO of iQOO India, confirmed that the company’s next flagship will arrive in India shortly after its China launch. The iQOO 15 will be among the first smartphones in the country to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC.
The iQOO 15 will be the first iQOO phone to ship with the new software out of the box – OriginOS 6, based on Android 16, the company’s latest operating system, announced globally earlier this week. The new OS focuses on fluid performance, natural design, and deep AI integration, offering a smoother, more responsive experience.
