Xiaomi 15 is expected to be the first device to run Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, but several other brands are also vying for this distinction. One of them is iQOO, which is rumored to introduce the 8th Gen 4 in its upcoming iQOO 13 smartphone.

Today, a tipster from Digital Chat Station shared on Weibo that the engineering sample of iQOO 13 is currently being tested with an OLED 8T LTPO flat panel display with a resolution of 2800 x 1260 pixels or 1.5K.

As mentioned earlier, the phone will be powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 paired with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The leak also hints at a large battery for the device but does not reveal its exact size.

Another advisor Smart Pikachu It was previously reported that iQOO 13 will have a 6,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support. The previous model, the iQOO 12, has a 5,000mAh battery, so this is a nice increase in battery capacity.

The iQOO 13 series will also include a Pro model that is said to have a curved panel with higher 2K resolution. It’s likely to have the same chip as the vanilla model, but we’re yet to get details on other aspects of the device.

While there is no specific mention of the launch date of the iQOO 13 series in the leaks, it seems unlikely that it will be released before the expected release of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in October 2024. We will definitely keep you updated on any new details. This is about smartphones.
