After a flurry of endless teasers and buildups, iQOO has finally decided to treat Indian fans with the all-new iQOO 15R. This is the first-ever R-branded iQOO smartphone and is aimed to be a compact flagship killer with the latest Snapdragon processor, over 7,000mAh battery and a capable dual camera setup.
iQOO 15R Specifications and Features
Right off the bat, the immediately noticeable aspect of the iQOO 15R is its design. This is the first R-branded iQOO phone and it resembles the minimal and clean look of the iQOO 15. However, it comes inside a compact and palm-friendly glass and aluminium sandwich.
Moreover, since the phone is a rebrand of the iQOO Z11 Turbo, it comes with the same porthole-style dual camera design with concentric rings around the lenses. There is also a pill-shaped dual-tone LED flash beside the squircle camera island. It comes in two shades, a minimal all-black Dark Knight option and an eye-catcy Triump Silver option with a nice checkerboard pattern at the back.
All in all, there is no doubt that the iQOO 15R is one of the well-designed iQOO phones in 2026. However, that is not all.
