Vivo sub-brand, iQOO is expected to launch its latest flagship 9 series of smartphones in India soon. In the latest development, 91mobiles has leaked some of the key specifications and pricing details of the country-specific vanilla iQOO 9 model. Accordingly, the handset will come with a Snapdragon 888+ 5G chipset, a 6.5-inch display, a 48MP triple rear camera setup, and a 4,350mAh battery.
The iQOO 9 will feature a punch-hole design with slim bezels, curved edges, and an in-display fingerprint sensor. On the rear, there will be a triple camera module.
