Meanwhile, the iQOO 3 5G price in India is Rs. 44,990 for a single model with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. There are three color options you can choose - Tornado Black, Quantum Silver, and Volcano Orange.

iQOO 3: Specifications & Features

The device sports a 6.44” Super AMOLED screen with FHD+ resolution and a punch-hole in the top right corner. The display also covers 91.40 of the front panels and supports HDR 10+. For security, the phone gets an under-display fingerprint reader that is touted to unlock the handset in just 0.29 seconds. Sadly, despite the competition heading toward a high refresh rate display, the iQOO 3’s display still only has a 60Hz refresh rate and a 180Hz touch response. At the helm, it rocks the powerful Snapdragon 865 chipset, aided by up to 12GB LDPPR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.

The device is equipped with ‘4D Game Vibration’ and ‘Monster Touch Buttons’ features. While the former is claimed to offer a much better gaming experience, the latter are two pressure-sensitive buttons on the side that can help users to achieve quick multi-finger operations in games.

Moving to the imaging front, it gets a quad-camera cluster that comprises a 48MP Sony IMX582 main sensor, a 13MP telephoto lens with 20x digital zoom, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 13MP wide-angle camera. On the front, there is a 16MP snapper for video calls and selfies housed in the front punch-hole. Camera features include Super Night mode, Portrait mode, AI sticker, Slow-mo, 4K video recording @ 60fps, and Super Anti Shake.

4,400 mAh is the battery capacity of the iQOO 3 and it supports 55W fast charging solution, which can fuel the device to 50% in 15 minutes. Connectivity options include a headphone jack, GPS / GLONASS, Bluetooth 5.1, Type-C port, 4G / 5G network, and Wi-Fi. Other features are Eye protection mode, Ultra Game Mode, Smart Split, and Hi-risk Audio.
