The iQOO 15R has officially launched in India, marking the debut of a high‑performance smartphone that pairs flagship‑class internals with one of the largest batteries in its segment.
The iQOO 15R was officially unveiled on 24 February 2026 in India, with pre‑bookings beginning the same day and sales set to start from 3 March 2026 via Amazon, the brand’s online store, and select offline retailers.
A standout feature of the 15R is its huge 7,600 mAh battery, one of the largest ever seen in mainstream Android phones. The cell supports 100 W wired fast charging and bypass charging reducing heat and enabling shorter top‑up times. Despite its size, the phone maintains a relatively slim profile around 7.9 mm.
Powering the device is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, built on a 3 nm process, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage for smooth performance and gaming. The 6.59‑inch 1.5K AMOLED display offers a 144 Hz refresh rate and up to 5000 nits peak brightness for vivid visuals.
The camera setup includes a 50 MP Sony LYT‑700V main sensor with OIS, an 8 MP ultra‑wide lens, and a 32 MP front camera. The phone runs Android 16 with OriginOS 6 and comes with four years of OS updates and six years of security patches.
Additional highlights include IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance, Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, an in‑display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, stereo speakers, and advanced cooling for gaming stability.
