iQOO is one of those Chinese smartphone OEMs that is rapidly expanding its smartphone product portfolio in India and across the globe with new devices.

The upcoming mystery handset by iQOO bears the V2197A model number on both certification websites. Thanks to the listing, the specification details of the unidentified iQOO handset have been revealed. What else the leaks have revealed? Read on for the details:
New iQOO Phone Gets Certified Via 3C, TENAA: Design, Specifications Revealed
As mentioned above, a mystery iQOO handset with the V2197A model number has received certification via both 3C and TENAA in China. While the exact moniker of the upcoming iQOO series phone is not mentioned on either of the certification website, the design language, as well as the key features, have been listed.
The leaked images of the unknown iQOO phone on TENAA show a basic front panel with a waterdrop notch display. The bezel profile is hardly visible, but it seems to be narrow on the sides and thicker on the chin. This upcoming iQOO smartphone will come with 164 x 75.84 x 8.25mm dimensions and will weigh 193 grams (approx.) as per the certification website.
If we speak of the leaked spec sheet, the latest iQOO phone is listed with an LCD display with a 6.51-inch screen size. The display will feature standard 720p HD+ resolution and 20:9 aspect ratio. We already have mentioned the use of the teardrop notch instead of a modern punch-hole camera cutout.
The TENAA listing doesn’t reveal the exact chipset name as well that will be driving this rumored iQOO handset. It also reveals an octa-core processor with a clock speed of 2.2GHz. While it is not yet confirmed if it will be a MediaTek or Qualcomm chipset powering this handset, the possibilities of former are likely as per the leaks.
The TENAA website listing further mentioned triple RAM and dual storage options. This upcoming iQOO phone will be packed with 4GB/6GB/8GB RAM, while the storage options tipped are 128GB/256GB. We might also see expandable microSD card support.
iQOO will be using a dual-lens camera module on its next Android mobile phone. According to TENAA, the setup used will be a 13MP main lens aided by a 2MP secondary sensor (possibly depth lens). The selfie snapper will also be basic, i.e, 8MP.
Coming to the 3C certification listing of the mystery iQOO phone, an 18W fast charging support is tipped. The battery capacity will be 4,910 mAh (rated) as per TENAA. Rumors are rife that this iQOO phone will be launched under the iQOO “U” series. But no concrete source has backed this information yet.
The leaks further hint at a June 18 launch date for the mystery iQOO handset. We are still waiting for some authentic details on the same. Nevertheless, looking at the leaked spec-sheet, this upcoming iQOO phone is expected to be a mid-ranger with an affordable price tag. It would be interesting to see how soon it enters the Indian market.
