Information about an upcoming smartphone has recently surfaced in Malaysia’s SIRIM database, confirming it as the iQOO 16s. The device has been spotted under the official model number I2606.
This specific I2606 model was previously spotted in the TKDN, EEC, and IMEI databases. The IMEI list clearly indicates that this phone will be released in other global markets as the iQOO 16R.
The iQOO 16R is positioned just below the flagship iQOO 16; the iQOO 16 is expected to arrive in the Indian market next month. These regional versions are rebranded editions of the iQOO Z12 Turbo, originating from China.
iQOO 16s expected Specifications
According to the expected specifications for the iQOO 16s, it features a 6.59-inch OLED panel, which is anticipated to offer 1.5K resolution and a high refresh rate. This screen setup will make fast-paced gaming and everyday scrolling experiences exceptionally smooth for users.
The phone features a Snapdragon 8 Gen 6 chipset, which provides exceptionally powerful processing capabilities. This advanced processor can handle heavy multitasking and complex applications without slowing down the device.
The most notable feature of the iQOO 16s is, without a doubt, its massive 10,000 mAh battery. The battery capacity is so high that, with a single charge, it can last for about three to four days under real-world usage conditions.
You get a 32-megapixel front camera for clear video calls and selfies. On the back, it features a 50-megapixel dual-camera setup, which is similar to the hardware found in the previous generation.
The SIRIM document specifies the approval code RGQL/70L/1126/S(26-6328) and identifies VTALENT BUSINESS SDN BHD as the official approval holder. Although this certification confirms the product’s marketing name in Malaysia, the final official specifications of the iQOO 16s remain under wraps for now.
