vivo Malaysia has officially launched its latest performance flagship smartphone, the iQOO 15, bringing a powerhouse of specifications identical to its global and China-released counterparts.
The launch of the iQOO 15 solidifies its position as a top-tier performance flagship, simultaneously achieving significant leaps in imaging capabilities and industrial design.
The device’s rear cover utilizes an AG micro-frosted process combined with an AF coating treatment, offering a refined, delicate tactile feel. Its large-radius design, paired with the iconic Monster Halo energy ring light strip, gives the whole device a visually rich, layered effect.
At the heart of the display experience is the Samsung 2K M14 LEAD™ OLED flagship screen, co-developed by iQOO and Samsung. This panel incorporates the latest M14 light-emitting material and advanced 2K LEAD™ OLED technology, achieving an astounding local peak brightness of 6,000 nits, a global brightness of 2,600 nits, and a manual brightness of 1,000 nits, covering 118% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut.
It has also earned multiple TÜV Rheinland comprehensive eye protection certifications. To ensure precise brightness control, the iQOO 15 is equipped with a triple photosensitive sensor system, supporting a 1-nit ultra-low brightness mode and a polarization-free natural light display effect, significantly reducing visual fatigue.
The touch experience has been further enhanced, supporting an instant touch sampling rate of up to 3200Hz and a multi-finger sampling rate of 360Hz. It also integrates a next-generation Super Touch chip, ensuring smooth and stable operation, especially in high-intensity scenarios like FPS mobile games.
Core performance remains iQOO’s consistent advantage. The iQOO 15 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 flagship platform, built on TSMC’s 3nm process, complemented by LPDDR5X Ultra memory and UFS 4.1 storage.
This combination delivers astonishing benchmark scores. The new device also introduces an independent high-speed video memory and a Game Ready mobile gaming driver, already optimized for popular titles such as Naraka: Bladepoint, Honkai: Star Rail, and Arena Breakout.
Another major highlight is the dedicated e-sports chip, the Supercomputing Chip Q3. Positioned by the company as the “phone’s graphics card,” it robustly supports iQOO’s self-developed, full-scene ray tracing, PC-level lossless frame interpolation, and native ultra-resolution features, enabling a top-tier visual experience of true 2K resolution at 144 frames per second.
Deep collaborations are already in place with multiple games to optimize native ultra-resolution and ultra-frame performance.
To ensure sustained high performance, the iQOO 15 incorporates an 8K single-layer VC cooling system, boasting a coverage area exceeding 14,000mm². It uses a high-thermal conductivity material containing 200 million nano-grade graphene oxide particles. Even after extended sessions of graphically intensive games like Genshin Impact, the device temperature remains remarkably low.
Battery life is equally impressive. The new phone features a massive 7,000mAh silicon anode single-cell battery, leveraging fourth-generation silicon anode technology and second-generation semi-solid-state battery technology.
It supports 100W FlashCharge wired fast charging and a rare 40W wireless fast charge—a feature not commonly seen on recent iQOO devices—allowing for effective temperature control even while charging during gameplay.
The audio and control experience has been comprehensively upgraded, with the phone featuring symmetrical dual stereo speakers (1511 units) and the industry’s first dual-axis linear motor.
In the imaging department, the iQOO 15 is equipped with a triple-camera setup on the rear: a 50MP Sony ultra-stable main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 50MP Sony 3x periscope telephoto lens.
The front camera is a 32MP shooter. The telephoto lens utilizes an ultra-thin prism triple-reflection light path design, coupled with the NICE imaging algorithm and AI large model image quality enhancement technology, supporting Live Photo and AI visual effect play, delivering a completely new mobile photography experience.
On the software front, the iQOO 15 debuts the brand-new OriginOS 6.0, focusing on “five years of sustained fluidity.” It introduces more natural Spring animations, stacked lock screen notifications, video grating effects, and integrates practical functions like the Snap-Up Engine, AI intelligent selection search, and smart screen recognition, comprehensively enhancing the user experience.
The Malaysian market introduces three configurations: the 12GB RAM with 256GB storage (an online exclusive), the 16GB RAM with 512GB storage, and the top-tier 16GB RAM with 1TB storage (also an online exclusive). Pricing starts at RM3,699 for the 12+256GB model, RM4,899 for the 16+512GB model, and RM4,299 for the 16+1TB variant. Consumers have a choice between the main “Zen” colourway, featuring a striking fire-cloud pattern texture, and the elegant “Legend” white version.
Early adopters who pre-order the iQOO 15 on or before December 11th will be rewarded with an impressive suite of gifts and offers valued up to RM1,232. This includes a RM100 discount, two years of screen protection, an additional two-year warranty, gaming finger sleeves, a protective case, and a special PWP offer for the iQOO Buds Air.
Furthermore, those who secure their pre-order via Shopee can choose an additional free gift, either a UGREEN Airtag or a 10,000mAh power bank. Adding even more value, during the upcoming 12.12 shopping festival, the 16+512GB version will be available at a special promotional price of RM3,999 on platforms like Lazada.
