Back in August, Vivo revealed the iQOO 5. The iQOO series is a gaming sub-brand of Vivo. iQOO’s flagship series always comes with a flagship chipset. In the iQOO 5 series, the phone comes with a Snapdragon 865 chipset.
Today, a new mysterious device from Vivo has been spotted on the famous Chinese 3C certification. The device has a model number V2049. As per our reports, it seems to be the upcoming flagship series device from iQOO, which may be called iQOO 7.
In the 3C Certification, it is mentioned that the device would support a maximum of 120W charging. The device uses the same charger that was launched with the iQOO 5 series. The charger supports charging in different modes: 10W (5V, 2A), 18W (9V, 2A), 33W (11V, 3A), 55W (11V, 5A), and 120W (20V, 6A).
As the company claims, this 120W charger can charge 50% of the battery in 5 minutes, while for a full charge, it takes 15 minutes (tested on a 4000mAh battery). It is expected that the iQOO 7 series will feature a bigger battery, such as 4500mAh or 5000mAh.
It is also expected that the new generation of the iQOO series may feature the Snapdragon 888 chipset, as this series usually features Qualcomm’s flagship chipsets. The Snapdragon 888 is an octa-core chipset based on 5nm production. The chipset also features Cortex-X1 Super Core.
