The iQOO 15 is just days away from its official unveiling in China, and the brand has dropped a new wave of confirmations that make this flagship one of its most ambitious yet. From IP69 durability to a massive 7,000mAh battery with wireless charging, the iQOO 15 looks set to redefine performance smartphones in 2025.
IP68 and IP69 Protection
For the first time in the iQOO series, the flagship will carry both IP68 and IP69 certifications. This dual rating makes the iQOO 15 resistant not only to dust and water immersion but also high-pressure water jets — a rare level of durability for a gaming- and performance-focused phone.
Ultrasonic Fingerprint Scanner With Wet Touch
The device debuts a next-gen ultrasonic fingerprint scanner that works even with wet fingers. Faster and more reliable than before, this small but impactful upgrade tackles a common frustration faced by smartphone users.
Wireless Charging and Bigger Battery
The iQOO 15 will also support wireless charging for the first time in the lineup. It’s paired with a battery rumored to exceed 7,000mAh, backed by iQOO’s Global Direct Drive Power Supply 2.0, which is designed to reduce heat buildup and extend battery lifespan — especially during prolonged gaming or media streaming.
Performance and Display
Under the hood, the iQOO 15 packs Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Performance is paired with a stunning 6.85-inch Samsung LTPO AMOLED “Everest” display, boasting:
– 2K resolution
– 144Hz adaptive refresh rate
– 3,200Hz touch response rate
– Up to 6,000 nits peak brightness in select scenarios
Other Features and Connectivity
– USB-C with USB 3.2 support
– Enhanced gaming optimizations unique to iQOO’s performance flagship devices
With rumors pointing to an October 15 launch date, the iQOO 15 is shaping up to be one of the most durable and high-performance smartphones of the year.
