iQOO Z10 Price Leaked Ahead of April 11 Launch; Z10x Also Expected

iQOO is preparing to launch its latest mid-range smartphone, the iQOO Z10, in India on April 11. As teasers continue to roll out ahead of the event, new details have emerged about the phone's charging capabilities, display, and price range. A second model, tentatively named the iQOO Z10x, is also expected to be unveiled alongside the main device, although iQOO hasn't officially confirmed it yet.

Here's what we know so far about the upcoming Z-series refresh from Vivo's sub-brand.

iQOO Z10 Pricing and Storage Details Leak

According to a report from Smartprix, the iQOO Z10 will be available in two storage variants: 128GB and 256GB. The RAM configuration is still under wraps, but given the pricing, it will likely start at either 6GB or 8GB.

• Base variant pricing is expected to start at ₹21,999,

• A ₹2,000 bank offer during the launch window could bring the effective price down to ₹19,999.

Charging Speeds and Battery Specs

One of the standout specs teased so far is the Z10's 90W fast charging support. iQOO claims this can recharge 50% of the battery in just 33 minutes.

The phone will come with a 7,300mAh battery unit, which is unusually large for a device this slim. Despite the battery capacity, the Z10 reportedly measures just 7.89mm in thickness, which is impressive.

Display and Design

The iQOO Z10 is expected to sport a quad-curved display-a design usually reserved for more premium devices. A centre-aligned punch-hole cutout houses the front-facing camera, keeping the design language in line with current trends.

One notable spec is the 5,000 nits peak brightness, which, if accurate, would provide better visibility in direct sunlight. This is unusually high for a mid-range phone and may need to be seen in real-world use to evaluate properly.

The phone will be available in two colour variants: Stellar Black and Glacier Silver.

Performance Expectations and Benchmark Scores

On the performance front, the iQOO Z10 is expected to run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset. This is a recent addition to Qualcomm's lineup and is targeted at mid-range devices that lean toward gaming and multitasking.

The phone reportedly scored 765,243 points on AnTuTu, which places it comfortably within the upper mid-tier range for Android performance benchmarks.

Will There Be a Z10x?

The same report suggests that iQOO may also launch another model-likely named the iQOO Z10x-at the April 11 event. This device would succeed last year's Z9x, and has already received BIS certification in India, hinting at an imminent launch. However, iQOO hasn't officially confirmed this.
