The iQOO 15 Ultra finally has a launch date. The brand also confirmed earlier reports that the phone would feature shoulder triggers.
The news follows several leaks about the phone, which is said to be a gaming-focused model. Now, ahead of its launch on Wednesday next week, the company shared that the phone would indeed have anti-sweat shoulder triggers, giving users a console-like experience for faster reaction times for action games. According to the company, the triggers will be touch-sensitive, offer haptic feedback, and use a 600Hz sampling rate. The phone is also expected to house a cooling fan system placed next to its camera island. It is rumored to measure 17mm in diameter and 4mm in thickness.
The company earlier revealed the phone’s futuristic design, which will be offered in 2077 Streamer Orange and 2049 Cold Blue colors.
In addition to a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, the handheld is believed to be coming with a flagship independent graphics chip, a 6.85″ 2K 144Hz LTPO OLED with Low-Temperature Polycrystalline Oxide tech and an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, a triple 50MP camera setup with a Sony IMX882 periscope unit with 3x optical zoom, a 7000mAh+ battery, and 200W wired and wireless charging support. The iQOO 15 Ultra is also believed to prioritize productivity, which could mean it will be equipped with features like generative AI and more.
