India, Aug. 24 -- The iQOO is shaping up to be one of the most closely watched gaming-focused flagship smartphone of 2026, but Indian buyers may have to wait a little longer for an official announcement. iQOO has not confirmed the phone's India launch date, price or specifications yet, while multiple leaks suggest that the company is preparing major upgrades in performance, display, camera and battery.

Recent reports point to a possible China launch around September or October 2026, followed by India debut around November or December. However, rising memory and component costs have also created uncertainty around the phone's India availability and final price.
