The I2603 model number has been doing the rounds for a while now. It first appeared in an IMEI database and later turned up on the Bluetooth SIG certification website, where it was listed as the iQOO Z12 Lite 5G. Neither listing revealed its specifications, but they did indicate that iQOO was working on the handset.

Earlier reports also pointed to a 6.77-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate on the iQOO Z12 Lite 5G. The phone is also tipped to have a 50-megapixel primary rear camera, a 2-megapixel secondary sensor and a 16-megapixel front camera. However, we do not yet know if these specifications will apply to the purported Z12 SE 5G variant.

The iQOO Z12 Lite 5G is expected to succeed the iQOO Z11 Lite 5G, which launched in India in July. The current model was initially available in 4GB + 128GB and 6GB + 128GB variants, followed by a 4GB + 64GB option priced at Rs. 19,499 on Amazon.
