iQOO 13 specifications (expected)
The upcoming iQOO 13 is anticipated to come equipped with the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, offering a seamless performance along with up to 16GB of RAM and a spacious 512GB of storage. Impressively, it outperformed the Galaxy S25 Ultra's overclocked 8 Elite chip in a Geekbench test.
On the software front, the iQOO 13 is expected to run on the Android 15-based OriginOS 5 operating system, which recently made its official debut. In terms of photography, the phone is likely to feature a triple 50MP camera setup including a main sensor, an ultrawide lens, and a telephoto lens.
However, the most noteworthy feature of the iQOO 13 might be its display. iQOO has confirmed that the phone will boast BOE's latest Q10 panel, offering a stunning 2K resolution and an impressive 144Hz refresh rate. The Q10 display is also reported to deliver higher brightness, a longer lifespan, and lower colour deviation compared to its competitors.
Additionally, the iQOO 13 is rumoured to be powered by a substantial 6150mAh battery with support for 100W PPS and PD charging. Leaks also suggest that the phone may come with an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, a metal frame, and a "Halo" light strip for added style.
