A month ago, we reported that Vivo had applied for some new trademarks, including the iQOO U trademark. Recently, the company officially confirmed its first U series smartphone, the iQOO U1. Its model number is Vivo V2023A, and it has been revealed on Geekbench and many other sites.
All the specifications of this phone are now available on the official website. It features a 6.53-inch single-punch-hole LCD display with a resolution of 2340 x 1080 and a 19.5:9 screen ratio. The screen-to-body ratio is 90.72%, with a slightly thick bottom bezel. The phone measures 162.05 x 76.61 x 8.46 mm and weighs about 190g.
The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 720G, an octa-core processor based on the 8nm process with an Adreno 618 GPU. The chipset is excellent for gaming and multitasking at the mid-range level. The phone uses a 4500 mAh lithium-ion battery and an 18W dual-engine charger.
The renders show a shiny back cover with the iQOO logo. The phone has a micro USB port for charging purposes and a 3.5mm headphone jack on the bottom.
The phone features a triple camera module (48MP, 2MP, 2MP) arranged vertically in a rectangular bump. There is also an LED flash below the rear camera. It also has an 8MP front camera. There is also a side fingerprint scanner on the lock button.
The phone is available in three variants: 6GB RAM with 64GB ROM for $171, 6GB RAM with 128GB ROM for $200, and 8GB RAM with 128GB ROM for $230. It uses UFS 2.1 storage and LPDDR4X memory.
