Performance and Gaming: Designed for Power and Cooling

Under the hood, the iQOO 15 runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset (3nm), paired with up to 16GB LPDDR5X Ultra Pro RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage. With custom optimizations from Qualcomm, the device has achieved 4.38 million points on AnTuTu 11 — making it one of the highest-performing Android devices available.

For gamers, the integrated Q3 gaming chip enables native 2K gaming at 144 FPS, and supports seven official titles with super-resolution and frame interpolation.

To handle heat, the iQOO 15 includes the industry’s largest 8000mm² VC cooling system with 200 million nano-graphene oxide particles. Even during a one-hour Genshin Impact session, the back temperature reportedly remained below 39.3°C.

It also features dual-axis Warhammer MAX vibration motors, 1511 War Drum Master speakers, and synchronized lighting effects for an immersive experience.

For selfies, there’s a 32MP front-facing camera.
With advanced imaging algorithms and NICE image enhancement technology, iQOO claims the device delivers cinematic-level clarity and color accuracy.

Design: Sleek, Premium, and Comfortable

The iQOO 15 is available in Lingyun, Legendary Edition, Track Edition, and Wilderness colorways. Its AG micro-matte back finish with an AF coating ensures a smooth grip. The energy halo light strip below the camera module gives it a futuristic touch while enhancing aesthetics.

The phone’s wide R-angle design makes it comfortable for extended horizontal gaming sessions.

Battery: Massive 7000mAh with Ultra-Fast Charging

Powering the iQOO 15 is a 7000mAh single-cell Blue Ocean battery based on 4th-gen silicon anode and 2nd-gen semi-solid-state technology. It supports 100W wired fast charging and 40W wireless fast charging, compatible with PD and PPS standards.

The battery is optimized for low-heat gaming and longer lifespan, thanks to iQOO’s direct-drive power supply technology that reduces charging stress during gameplay.
