iQOO 16 Will Feature Flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro Chip and Samsung Display, Tipster Claims
iQOO 16 will be launched with the unreleased Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset from Qualcomm, a tipster claims. The SoC is rumoured to be built on a 2nm process and is expected to succeed Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC. Moreover, the leaker claims that the Vivo sub-brand will equip the purported iQOO 16 with a 2K Samsung display. Its predecessor, the iQOO 15, was launched in India in November last year with the Samsung M14 8T LTPO display. The smartphone is powered by Qualcomm’s 3nm octa core Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.
