The iQOO 15 Pro, expected to launch in late 2025, is already creating buzz in the tech world. Recent leaks suggest that the upcoming flagship smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 processor and feature a massive 7,000mAh battery.
In an interesting twist, iQOO is skipping the number 14 in its product lineup, jumping directly from iQOO 13 to iQOO 15 due to Chinese cultural beliefs—where the number 4 is often avoided because it sounds like the word for "death" in Mandarin.
iQOO 15 Pro: Expected Features & Specs
1. Power & Performance
Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 (Expected to launch alongside the phone in Q4 2025)
RAM & Storage: Likely to feature LPDDR5X RAM & UFS 4.0 storage for ultra-fast performance
Software: Expected to run OriginOS/Funtouch OS based on Android 15
With iQOO’s history of high-performance gaming phones, the iQOO 15 Pro could be one of the first devices to debut with Qualcomm’s cutting-edge chipset.
2. Massive 7,000mAh Battery & Fast Charging
One of the biggest highlights of the iQOO 15 Pro could be its 7,000mAh battery, a major upgrade over its predecessor. While official details on charging speeds are not available, reports suggest that the phone could offer at least 120W fast charging—similar to or even faster than the iQOO 13.
3. Stunning 2K OLED Display with 144Hz Refresh Rate
Display Type: 2K OLED panel
Refresh Rate: 144Hz for ultra-smooth gaming & scrolling
Screen Design: Likely to feature a flat display instead of a curved one
Unlike many flagships that favor curved screens, iQOO may stick to a flat display—a preference for many users who dislike accidental touches and screen distortions.
4. Improved Camera with Periscope Telephoto Lens
Periscope Telephoto Lens for Enhanced Zoom: A major upgrade over the iQOO 13
Ultra-Wide & Primary Sensors: Expected to receive upgrades for better low-light photography
While the standard iQOO 15 might not get the premium camera setup, the iQOO 15 Pro is rumored to bring back the periscope telephoto lens, a feature last seen on the iQOO 12.
5. Ultrasonic In-Screen Fingerprint Sensor
The iQOO 15 Pro is expected to retain an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, offering faster, more secure unlocking compared to optical sensors.
A Flagship to Watch in 2025?
While these details are based on leaks, the iQOO 15 Pro is shaping up to be an exciting flagship with a powerful chipset, massive battery, high refresh rate display, and premium camera upgrades. With iQOO’s track record of delivering top-tier performance at competitive prices, the iQOO 15 Pro could be one of the most exciting smartphone releases of 2025.
