iQOO, vivo’s performance-driven sub-brand, is once again shaking up the mid-range segment in India with the highly anticipated launch of the iQOO Z10R. Landing on July 29th via Amazon.in and iQOO’s eStore, this smartphone is poised to redefine expectations, blending “flagship-grade touches” with an aggressive price tag, all while running the latest Android 15 straight out of the box!
A Display That Curves to Impress
Right off the bat, the iQOO Z10R demands attention with its stunning 6.77-inch Full HD+ quad-curved AMOLED display. In a world where premium screens often come with premium price tags, iQOO is bringing this immersive experience to the masses. Boasting a buttery-smooth 120Hz refresh rate, vibrant HDR10+ support, and an incredible 1800 nits peak brightness, your content, games, and daily scrolls will look nothing short of spectacular. Plus, with SCHOTT Xensation α glass protection, it’s built to withstand the rigors of everyday life.
Performance That Packs a Punch (and Stays Cool)
Under the hood, the iQOO Z10R is powered by the 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7400 chipset. This octa-core powerhouse, clocked at up to 2.6GHz, is designed for efficient yet robust performance, making it a solid choice for everything from demanding games to seamless multitasking. And don’t worry about breaking a sweat, because iQOO has equipped the Z10R with a substantial 13,690mm² graphite cooling system and 10 temperature sensors to keep things running optimally even when pushed to their limits.
You’ll also get generous memory configurations, with options up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM (expandable with an additional 12GB of virtual RAM) and up to 256GB of UFS 2.2 storage, ensuring plenty of space for all your apps and media.
Capture Every Moment, From Every Angle
For the aspiring content creators and selfie enthusiasts, the iQOO Z10R doesn’t disappoint. It features a capable dual-camera setup on the rear, headlined by a 50MP Sony IMX882 primary sensor with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), ensuring your shots are crisp and clear, even in challenging conditions. The 32MP front-facing camera is equally impressive, supporting 4K video recording at 30fps – perfect for high-quality vlogs and video calls. Adding to its photographic prowess is the innovative “Aura Light” for enhanced low-light portraits and a suite of AI-powered features like AI Erase 2.0, Photo Enhance, and AI Screen Translation.
Built Tough, Charges Fast, and Keeps You Going
Durability is a key highlight for the iQOO Z10R. It boasts IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance, meaning it can handle splashes and even a dunk. Furthermore, it meets MIL-STD-810H military-grade durability standards and has an SGS five-star anti-fall certification, giving you peace of mind.
Keeping the lights on is a massive 5700mAh battery that promises over a day of heavy usage. And when you do need a top-up, the 44W FlashCharge technology will get you to 50% in a mere 33 minutes, with a full charge taking just over an hour. It even supports reverse wired charging for those emergency power-sharing moments.
Flagship Touches, Mid-Range Price
Beyond the core specs, the iQOO Z10R sweetens the deal with a host of features typically found on more expensive devices:
- In-display fingerprint sensor for seamless security.
- Dual stereo speakers for an immersive audio experience.
- Bypass Charging for cooler gaming sessions.
- Full 5G connectivity with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4.
