A few weeks ago, the vivo sub-brand iQOO began hinting at its upcoming launch in Malaysia. Last week, as we correctly predicted, the business confirmed that it will make its debut in Malaysia with the iQOO 11 5G, a smartphone in the number series that is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. The iQOO 11 5G will make its Malaysian premiere on December 2 at the iQOO 11 5G Experience Day event, according to a recent announcement from iQOO.
The 4-hour long event will commence at 6 PM local time, when iQOO will unveil the iQOO 11 5G, the country’s first smartphone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. However, the vivo X90 Pro+, which will go on sale in China later today, will be the first Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 smartphone in the globe. The iQOO 11 5G, however, may end up becoming the first smartphone using Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 outside of China.
The iQOO 11 5G’s specifications haven’t been released yet, but in the media invite that was sent to us, iQOO referred to it as the “king of gaming smartphones.” The iQOO 11 5G’s gaming capabilities are unknown. But it’s likely that the In-Display Monster Touch, which was previously seen on the iQOO 7 Legend, iQOO 9, and iQOO 9T, will be present.
However, iQOO has already advertised the iQOO 11 5G on social media as being a smartphone with the “fastest refresh rate” and “strong battery life.” According to leaked information, the iQOO 11 5G will include a 6.78″ 1,440p, 144Hz screen and a 5,000 mAh battery with 120W charging. Additionally, it might be equipped with the vivo V2 chip, which will initially appear in the vivo X90 series.
The iQOO 11 5G’s design has also not yet been made public by iQOO. However, the business has officially announced BMW M Motorsport as its premium partner, so you can anticipate an edition of the iQOO 11 5G with a white rear panel and red, black, and blue stripes to symbolize BMW Motorsport.
You can anticipate additional information about the iQOO 11 5G from iQOO Malaysia as the launch is still over a week away. The iQOO 11 Pro, which we exclusively reported last week will include the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, 6.78″ E6 AMOLED display, Android 13, and the vivo V2 chip, will likely be released alongside the iQOO 11 next week, although it’s not clear if that will be the sole smartphone. In India, it might debut in January.
