Chinese smartphone maker iQoo is making its way to India and the company has already announced the launch date of its first smartphone here, the iQoo 3. The iQoo 3 launch will take place on February 25 which is only a few days away. The company has now teased a video of the official hands-on of the smartphone in China, where the brand is part of Chinese electronics giant Vivo. In this video, the box of the iQoo 3 can be seen but the company has blurred out the smartphone to keep its design a secret (at least with live images) till its official launch. Separately, it has unveiled a new video that showcases the smartphone’s design in renders, showing off the quad rear camera setup, textured back panel designs,
Posted earlier this week, but only spotted now, iQoo has uploaded an official hands-on video on its Weibo page. While the device is not seen in this official hands-on video, the people who did manage to get their hands on the device speak about it towards the end. However, thanks to previously leaked live images of the device we have a fair idea of how this upcoming smartphone will look like.
iQoo on Thursday posted another teaser video, this time, showing off the back panel of the phone, confirming the innovative quad rear camera module. A 48-megapixel camera is clearly seen as well. You can check it out in the video screenshot below. Textured rear panels with different looks can also be seen, one with a criss-cross pattern and another with a what looks like a paint-splattered option.
