iQOO 13 is all set to debut in India next month, featuring two of the four colour options initially launched in China. This high-end smartphone, equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and a customizable Halo Light feature, is expected to arrive in India with the same specifications as its Chinese counterpart.
On Tuesday, the company announced that the iQOO 13 will be available in India in two colour options: Nardo Grey and Legend Edition. The Legend Edition showcases a white rear panel with three colour accents. These colourways mirror the design of the models launched in China last month.
While the Nardo Grey and Legend Edition have been confirmed for the Indian market, it remains uncertain whether the other two colour options available in China—Isle of Man and Track Edition—will be released globally, including in India.
The iQOO 13 boasts impressive specifications, including a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, a dedicated Q2 gaming chipset, and up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM. It features a 6.82-inch 2K (1,440 x 3,168 pixels) BOE Q10 8T LTPO 2.0 OLED screen with a 144Hz refresh rate. For photography enthusiasts, the device offers a triple rear camera setup, with three 50-megapixel sensors for primary, telephoto, and ultrawide shots. Additionally, a 32-megapixel front camera caters to selfies.
The smartphone supports up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage and includes a customizable “Energy Halo” LED light around the rear camera island, offering multiple dynamic effects and colour combinations. With IP68 and IP69 ratings, the phone ensures dust and water resistance. Connectivity features include 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, GPS, and a USB Type-C port. Security is enhanced with an in-display fingerprint scanner, and the device is powered by a 6,150mAh battery supporting 120W wired fast charging.
