But we have now exclusively brought you the confirmed pricing of the iQOO 15 ahead of the launch. Here's how much it would cost.

iQOO 15 Price Range in India Confirmed

iQOO CEO Nipun Marya confirmed that the iQOO 15 would fall in the ₹65,000 to ₹70,000 range, marking a price hike compared to its predecessor, the iQOO 13, which launched starting at ₹54,999. The company also stated that rising memory costs have contributed to the increase in smartphone prices.

Nipun further mentioned that iQOO will be evaluating EMI options and bank or card discounts to continue for more aggressive pricing, but the details will be revealed closer to the launch date.

What We Think

The recently launched OnePlus 15 also saw a hike in prices with the starting variant seeing an increase of ₹3,000 compared to the outgoing OnePlus 13. In contrast, the iQOO 15 will see a price hike of ₹10,000, which is a significant number, but iQOO also promises a slew of upgrades for its upcoming flagship.

While brands are bringing several upgrades, prices continue to rise - so it remains to be seen how these devices perform in real-world use. Stay tuned with us for the full review.
