The upcoming iQOO 15 Ultra is nearing its launch in China, with the company building anticipation through official teasers and feature reveals.
Slated to debut in the first week of February, the flagship smartphone has had several key specifications confirmed by iQOO, especially regarding its advanced display technology. Simultaneously, a leaked hands-on video has surfaced, giving a first glimpse of the phone’s physical design and hinting at performance-focused hardware.
Here’s everything known so far about the iQOO 15 Ultra’s design, display, and expected specifications.
Display
In an official post on Weibo, iQOO revealed that the iQOO 15 Ultra will come equipped with a 2K resolution 8T LTPO OLED display. This advanced panel will support up to 144Hz refresh rate, and use M14 luminescent material, designed for better brightness and efficiency.
According to the company, the panel will deliver:
- Up to 8,000 nits peak brightness
- 508 ppi pixel density
- 2160Hz PWM dimming for reduced eye strain
- Dolby Vision support for enhanced HDR content
- 118% P3 colour gamut coverage (iQOO’s widest so far)
Interestingly, iQOO also claims this display is 44% more energy-efficient than the one found in the previous iQOO 13. However, the exact display size has not yet been confirmed by the company.
Design
A hands-on video, leaked by Weibo user Tech Xiaobu, has allegedly shown the upcoming iQOO 15 Ultra from various angles. The handset appears with a silver finish and features a visible heat vent on the left side, likely for an active cooling system. This vent supports the previously teased Ice Dome Air Cooling System, which suggests that thermal management will be a major focus.
The phone also appears to feature:
- Two shoulder trigger buttons – ideal for gaming
- Triple rear camera setup inside a square-shaped module
- Metal frame with flat edges
- Power button and volume rocker on the right side
These gaming-centric hardware elements signal iQOO’s intent to position the device as a high-performance flagship aimed at power users and mobile gamers.
Colours
The iQOO 15 Ultra will be available in two futuristic colour variants:
- 2049 (Silver)
- 2077 (Black)
These naming schemes align with the device’s gaming and sci-fi-themed design ethos.
Specifications (Expected)
While iQOO has confirmed only a few details so far, several specifications have been tipped by leaks and insider sources. Here’s what is expected under the hood:
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Processor | Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (Elite Gen) |
| Fabrication | 3nm process |
| Battery Capacity | 7,400mAh |
| Wireless Charging | 100W |
| Cooling System | Ice Dome Air Cooling (active fan) |
| Gaming Chip | Q3 custom gaming chip |
| Display Size | 6.85 inches (unconfirmed) |
If accurate, this makes the iQOO 15 Ultra one of the largest batteries and fastest wireless charging combos seen in a flagship device to date.
Launch Details
The iQOO 15 Ultra is officially set to launch in China in early February at 7 PM local time (4:30 PM IST). iQOO has not confirmed availability in global markets yet, but previous models in the series have seen limited international release.
With its gaming-ready features, flagship processor, and advanced OLED panel, the iQOO 15 Ultra looks ready to challenge the best in the ultra-premium Android segment.
