The iQOO Z10 is officially landing in India on April 11, and the company isn’t holding back when it comes to revealing key details before the launch. From the chipset and price segment to the battery specs and design, most of the juicy details are already out. As the successor to the iQOO Z9, this one looks set to offer some solid upgrades—especially in performance and charging speed.
Pricing
iQOO has confirmed that the Z10 will be priced under Rs. 22,000. That’s in line with earlier leaks which pointed to a base price of Rs. 21,999 for the 128GB variant. The phone is also expected to come in a 256GB storage version.
To put things in perspective, here’s how the Z10 stacks up against its predecessor:
| Model | Variant | Launch Price (INR) |
|---|---|---|
| iQOO Z9 | 8GB + 128GB | 19,999 |
| iQOO Z9 | 8GB + 256GB | 21,999 |
| iQOO Z10 | 128GB (Expected) | 21,999 (Expected) |
| iQOO Z10 | 256GB (Expected) | TBD |
With pricing just under that Rs. 22,000 mark, the Z10 is aimed squarely at value-focused buyers looking for premium features at mid-range costs.
Performance
The most notable upgrade in the iQOO Z10 is the chipset. It ditches the MediaTek Dimensity 7200 used in the Z9 and goes for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 SoC. According to iQOO, this processor scores over 8,20,000 on AnTuTu, which is a strong number in its price category.
That should translate to smoother performance whether you’re gaming, multitasking, or just doing everyday tasks. The company even claims it’ll be the fastest phone in its segment. We’ll see how that holds up in real-world usage, but it’s a promising start.
Design
iQOO isn’t just focusing on what’s inside. The Z10 also comes with a sleek design featuring a quad-curved display, which is rare in this price bracket. It will be available in two colour options:
- Glacier Silver
- Stellar Black
At just 7.89mm thick, the phone looks set to be one of the slimmest mid-rangers out there. That, combined with a premium design, could make it stand out from the crowd.
Display and Battery
Another highlight of the iQOO Z10 is its super-bright screen. The quad-curved display is claimed to offer up to 5,000nits of peak brightness. That’s incredibly bright—even brighter than some flagship phones.
Powering everything is a massive 7,300mAh battery, which should easily last through a day and more. Even better? It supports 90W FlashCharge. iQOO says you can juice it up from 0 to 50 percent in just 33 minutes. That’s quick enough to get you through your day without worrying about long charge times.
Here’s a quick rundown of key hardware features:
| Feature | Specification |
|---|---|
| SoC | Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 |
| Display | Quad-curved, 5,000nits peak |
| Battery | 7,300mAh |
| Charging | 90W FlashCharge |
| Thickness | 7.89mm |
| Colour Options | Glacier Silver, Stellar Black |
| OS and Storage | Expected Android 14, up to 256GB |

The iQOO Z10 will be available for purchase via Amazon and the official iQOO India store starting April 11. With all these features at a mid-range price, it’s shaping up to be a strong contender in its segment.
