Following an earlier report that it was canceled, a tipster in China claims that the iQOO 15 Mini is still scheduled for a debut in April next year.
The phone’s development was earlier rumored to have been halted in China, though no specific reasons were provided. Now, Smart Pikachu says otherwise, teasing that the compact model could still be introduced in 2026.
In line with this, the tipster reiterated earlier leaks about the phone, noting that it features a MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chip, a metal frame, a 7000mAh battery, and a display with an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.
As noted in the past, the phone is also believed to be coming with a compact 6.3″ 1.5K display, a built-in fan, and even gaming triggers.
