iQOO 11 5G launch in India set for January 2023: What to expect

iQOO has confirmed that the brand-new iQOO 11 5G is coming to India. The India website of the brand now lists the iQOO 11 5G with a Notify Me button for future updates. The listing on the website does not have a launch date, but a community forum post has revealed the details, including the date when the upcoming iQOO phone would go on sale and the variants that will likely be launched in India next year.

According to the post on the iQOO community forum, the iQOO 11 launch in India will take place on January 10, 2023, while its first sale will begin on January 13. The post also mentions that iQOO will launch both iQOO 11 and iQOO 11 Pro in India, however, just the former is listed on the company website right now.

In India, the iQOO 11 series, including both non-Pro and Pro models, may come with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, which are the highest-end models for these phones. iQOO has listed the variant in the BMW Motorsport finish, so that is definitely coming, but more variants will also likely arrive. If no other brand drops its flagship phone in India before January 10, the iQOO 11 will become India’s first Snapdragon 8 Gen 2-powered phone.
