OnePlus 16, iQOO 16, Redmi K100 Pro Max Tipped to Launch at Higher Prices This Year
Upcoming flagship phones from OnePlus, iQOO, and Redmi may launch at higher prices, according to tipster Digital Chat Station. Models such as the OnePlus 16, iQOO 16, and Redmi K100 Pro Max could start at around CNY 5,000 (roughly Rs. 66,000) for the 12GB + 256GB variant. These devices are expected to use next-generation chips like the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 or MediaTek Dimensity 9600. Higher production costs, including expensive 2nm wafers from TSMC and rising memory prices, may drive the increase. Some brands may also reserve 2nm chips for premium models.
