iQOO Z10 4G has been launched in Russia, with a Snapdragon chipset. The smartphone has been listed on the company's website in the country with a design that resembles another Vivo handset. This comes after the iQOO Z10 Lite 5G was unveiled in India in June. The Indian variant dual rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary shooter and a 2-megapixel secondary lens. The new model launched in Russia supports 4G connectivity. Both handsets have a 6,000mAh battery, with different charging speeds.
iQOO Z10 4G price starts at RUB 16,999 (roughly Rs. 18,700) in Russia for the base model with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, while the 256GB storage variant costs RUB 18,499 (roughly Rs. 20,300). The handset is available in Taiga (Green) and Glacier (White) colour options (translated from Russian). There's also no word from the company on when (or whether) the handset will be introduced in other markets, including India.
The dual-SIM iQOO Z10 Lite 4G runs on Funtouch OS 15 based on Android 15. The phone sports a 6.67-inch (1,080×2,400 pixels) AMOLED display with a refresh rate that ranges between 60Hz and 120Hz, up to 1,200nits peak brightness, and 394ppi pixel density. It is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 685 chipset, built on a 6nm process. It also has IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.
The Vivo-sub brand has equipped the iQOO Z10 Lite 4G with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 256GB of UFS 2.2 onboard storage. The handset is also equipped with a 6,000mAh battery with 44W charging support, which is faster than the 5G variant of the handset.
For optics, the iQOO Z10 Lite 4G features a 50-megapixel primary camera with an f/1.8 aperture, and an unspecified 2-megapixel secondary camera with an f/2.4 aperture.
