With the end of the new phone trend in the first half of this year, more and more people are now focusing on the next generation of new phones in the second half. Recently, news about the iQOO new phone, iQOO 13, has been exposed online, and from the parameters, the "thirteen delicacies" law has also been proven in iQOO.
As the highest-end product series under iQOO, the digital series models have always been favored by many consumers due to their excellent performance, especially in terms of product strength and performance. With the continuous exposure of a large amount of product-related information for the subsequent model iQOO 13 in this series, sources have also revealed further details about this model, including screen configuration.
Recently, it was noticed that a digital blogger revealed that the iQOO 13 series will adopt a 1.5K straight screen and a 2K curved screen design, with the screen supply chain covering both domestic and Samsung.
The blogger further revealed that after successfully popularizing super-fast charging technology, the iQOO 13 series has once again led the trend by popularizing ultra-large battery capacity, with both models being dual-chip e-sports flagships.
In terms of appearance, it is said that iQOO 13 is expected to use a combination of metal frame and glass body and may support ultrasonic under-screen fingerprint recognition.
Amidst the heated discussions among netizens, the blogger also revealed that since the domestic solution for wide-area ultrasonic fingerprint technology is not yet mature, and the cost of choosing the Qualcomm solution is high, iQOO 13 has chosen a domestic single-point ultrasonic fingerprint solution with a conventional large screen size to meet users' needs for fast unlocking and convenient operation.
It is worth mentioning that the iQOO 13 series will be equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen4 platform, and will also feature 3X periscope telephoto, single-point ultrasonic under-screen fingerprint, IP68 dustproof and waterproof protection, and a built-in extra-large X-axis linear motor.
From the configuration, iQOO 13 will be the most powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen4 straight screen phone, with screens, performance, and periscope all arranged.
It is reported that the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen4 farewells the Arm architecture and adopts the self-developed Nuvia architecture, forming a new dual-cluster eight-core CPU architecture solution, which will be a significant change in the history of Qualcomm Snapdragon 5G SoC.
At the same time, the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 will adopt TSMC's second-generation 3nm process technology, with comprehensive performance targeting Apple's A18 Pro.
Another noteworthy point is that there are reports that the iQOO 13 series will only have one standard version,取消了Pro版机型.
Because according to previously revealed information and the configurations of the iQOO 13 leaks, due to the poor sales of the iQOO 12 Pro and the conflict between its pricing and the vivo X100 series, the iQOO 13 series may only have one product, with a speculated price range between the iQOO 12 and the iQOO 12 Pro.
According to convention, iQOO 13 will be one of the first Snapdragon 8 Gen4 terminals, and the new product will be released in Q4 of this year.
In terms of other configurations, iQOO 13 will be equipped with a 100W fast charger and an ultra-large capacity battery. Based on the 5000mAh capacity battery of the previous generation iQOO 12, it is expected that the battery of the new generation iQOO 13 will be further increased and exceed 5000mAh.
In addition, the overall imaging configuration of the iQOO 13 series will continue to be upgraded, not only retaining the telephoto lens but also further upgrading the main camera size, gradually moving towards an all-round flagship positioning.
Here, Mingmei Infinite summarizes the past leaked information about iQOO 13 as follows:
SoC: Snapdragon 8 Gen 4
Screen: 2K LTPO conventional narrow-edged large-size straight screen, current engineering model uses BOE X substrate
Fingerprint: Single-point ultrasonic fingerprint recognition
Imaging: 3x periscope telephoto, with the possibility of downgrading
Vibration motor: AAC ESA1016
Battery: 6000mAh+, wireless charging is not supported for the time being
Body: Metal frame, glass body, IP68 dustproof and waterproof
Others: Some classic designs are retained
For comparison, the current iQOO 12 phone adopts a straight screen design and offers three color options: Legend Edition, Race Edition, and Flame Edition.
The iQOO 12 comes standard with the self-developed e-sports chip Q1, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, using a 6.78-inch 2800×1260 OLED straight screen with Visionox 8T light-emitting material, supporting a 144Hz refresh rate, a battery capacity equivalent to 5000mAh, and a rear camera system consisting of a 50-megapixel 1/1.3-inch main camera with pursuit of light + a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto lens with 100X digital zoom + a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens.
In addition, from the parameters, the newly exposed phone hardly has any shortcomings in terms of hardware configuration. If the price is competitive enough, it is expected to become a new generation of cost-effective flagship device.
Finally, if the leaked information is true, then the iQOO 13 will have a significant improvement in overall strength compared to the previous generation, and the 2K straight screen solution is rare in the current domestic mobile phone market. If iQOO really intends to do so, it is believed that the iQOO 13 in the second half of the year will have very strong competitiveness among a range of standard models.
