iQOO Z5 (V2188A) shows up on TENAA - a different Z5 for China
An unannounced iQOO with the model name V2188A was briefly up on China's TENAA certification site and has seemingly been pulled down since.
We were able to get a good look and saw the specs - the V2188A has a 5,880mAh battery, which is close enough to call 6,000mAh, 44W charging, a 6.58-inch display, and the dimensions of 163.87 x 75.33 x 9.21mm with a weight of 203g.
This is likely the iQOO Z5 with a 6,000mAh battery that's reportedly coming to China.
What's weird is that China already has a vivo an iQOO Z5 on sale but that phone has a 5,000mAh battery with 44W charging and a 6.67-inch IPS LCD of 120Hz refresh rate. It also relies on a Snapdragon 778G 5G chipset.
Meanwhile, this rumored, TENAA-related iQOO Z5 has a 6.58-inch 120Hz display and could launch with a different chipset, possibly a Dimensity 1300.

Originally saw this news a few days ago on Chinese tech media. I remembered this new Z5 model looks very similar to iQOO Neo6 and they say the chipset inside it could be Snapdragon 778G+. We'll have to wait and see.
