This new flagship has stunned everyone by achieving impressive results in Geekbench benchmark tests—scoring 3,434 in single-core and 9,334 in multi-core performance. The official iQOO 16 price aligns with this outstanding performance, clearly indicating the brand’s intention to reach new heights in gaming with this highly anticipated device.
The iQOO 16 was officially launched in the Chinese market on September 29, 2026. Although the company has not yet announced a specific official release date for India, preliminary testing is currently underway in the country. It is expected to hit the Indian market later this year.
Before making a decision, buyers are always keen to know the exact price of the iQOO 16. The base ‘Full Netcom’ (V2606A) model, featuring 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, is priced at 5,999.00 Yuan (86,490 Taka).
Moving up a tier, the variant with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage is priced at 6,799 Yuan (98,032 Taka). Meanwhile, those looking for a phone for heavy-duty tasks or intensive usage can opt for the version with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, priced at 7,499 Yuan (1,08,125 Taka).
The price of the top-tier model, featuring 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, is 8,499 Yuan (122,544 Rupees). You need to be careful when selecting the storage capacity, as none of the models support additional storage or the use of memory cards.
One of the key features of the iQOO 16 is its all-new engine. It utilizes the sixth-generation ‘Snapdragon 8 Super Ultimate Mobile Platform,’ built using an ultra-compact 2-nanometer (2nm) CPU manufacturing process. This device will be an excellent choice for gaming enthusiasts.
This octa-core processor brings desktop-level speed right to the palm of your hand. The memory hardware depends entirely on which price tier of the iQOO 16 you choose.
Its premium 16GB + 1TB model features ultra-fast LPDDR5X Ultra Pro quad-channel RAM. The other storage variants utilize standard LPDDR5X Ultra quad-channel RAM, paired with high-speed UFS 4.1 ROM for rapid app loading.
Its external design reveals a device that, despite its large size, is well-proportioned and balanced. The phone measures 163.75 mm in height and 76.90 mm in width.
The ‘Track’ color variant has a thickness of 8.30 mm and weighs 222.5 grams. You can purchase this device in three attractive colors: ‘Track’, ‘Legend’, and ‘Chasing the Light’. Despite housing a large battery, the phone is quite lightweight.
Every visual feature of the iQOO 16 shines brilliantly on its 6.85-inch AMOLED screen. Gamers will certainly appreciate that this expansive display supports a refresh rate of up to 165Hz, ensuring incredibly smooth animations. While the previous model, the iQOO 15, also featured a 6.85-inch 144Hz screen, the refresh rate has been bumped up to 165Hz in the new model.
Powering such a massive screen requires robust battery hardware. The phone is equipped with an 8400mAh battery, which offers significantly longer usage time compared to older flagship models.
You won’t have to wait long when the battery runs out, either; the device supports up to 100W wired charging and 40W wireless flash charging. iQOO has addressed charging concerns by incorporating this large battery into the new model, which is expected to provide reliable performance for up to 2–3 days.
A close look at the specifications of the iQOO 16 reveals a significant overhaul of its camera system. It features a 32-megapixel front camera designed for excellent selfies and clear video calls.
The highlight of the rear camera setup is a large 50-megapixel ‘ultra-sensitive’ 1/1.3-inch sensor. This is complemented by a 50-megapixel Sony Super Periscope telephoto lens and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, offering up to 100x digital zoom. These cameras are set to elevate your photography experience to a whole new level.
The phone runs on the latest ‘OriginOS 7’ operating system, based on Android 17. Additionally, it includes an embedded ultrasonic 3D fingerprint scanner for fast and secure unlocking.
