The next iteration of the 2024 flagship iQOO 13, the iQOO 15 is already confirmed to launch soon in China. However, this time around, it will not be alone. Early reports indicate an "Ultra" and a "compact" member making their way to the 15 family.
The arrival of the iQOO 15 Ultra was floating around the rumour mill for quite sometime now. However, according to tipster Experience more, iQOO is also prepping a more compact 15 series flagship that will launch in addition to the standard iQOO 15 and the beefed up iQOO 15 Ultra.
This means that the compact smartphone will sit in between the two iQOO devices, out of which the iQOO 15 is already confirmed to arrive in China.
While the name of this compact device is yet to surface, the leaker says it will feature a small flat display. It could be a 6.3-inch OLED panel. As for the other details, they are also yet to emerge since this is the first time we are hearing about this compact iQOO 15 series smartphone. So, expect more information to surface leading up to the launch.
The reason is, the launch of the unnamed smartphone is still a few months away. Experience More claims that both the 15 Ultra and the compact 15 will launch sometime in the first half of 2026. This means that the iQOO 15 will launch first sometime in August 2025.
With that said, talking about the iQOO 15 series, both the base 15 and the 15 Ultra are expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 processor. We can expect the same SoC to power the compact flagship as well.
Apart from this, early specification leaks indicate a 6.85-inch QHD+ 144 Hz LTPO OLED screen for both smartphones. A smaller screen with the same range of specifications can make its way to the compact 15. The trio will likely feature an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner underneath.
There are also whispers of a triple 50 MP rear camera setup with the iQOO 15 series. It will include a 50 MP 3x periscope telephoto mid-sized sensor along with a main and ultra-wide angle lens. Will the compact iQOO 15 get the same treatment? Now, that is the question.
