The promotional image confirmed that the Indian variant of the iQOO 15 will be powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset and will run on Android 16-based OriginOS 6 out of the box.

The upcoming Chinese variant of the iQOO 15 is confirmed to come with an upgraded Q3 gaming chip and support 144fps gameplay at 2K. The handset will feature an 8K vapour chamber (VC) Dome cooling system as well. The new design of the cooling unit is said to use a double layer of high-conductivity graphite, claiming to offer 47 percent better cooling than the previous version. The iQOO 15's VC heat sink is over three times larger than that in the iPhone 17 Pro Max, according to details shared by an iQOO employee.

The iQOO 15 is set to feature a 6.85-inch 2K 8T LTPO Samsung "Everest" panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and up to 6,000 nits of peak local brightness. The device will support wireless charging and pack a battery exceeding 7,000mAh. It will come with an IP69 rating for dust and water protection and include a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for biometric security.
