iQOO 13 will launch with a smaller battery in India

The iQOO 13, unveiled last month in China, will launch in India on December 3. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, and while one would expect the Indian model to share the rest of the specs with its Chinese counterpart, that's not the case because the Indian iQOO 13 will have a smaller battery under the hood.

This revelation comes through iQOO 13's promo page on iQOO's Indian website, saying the iQOO 13 Indian variant will pack a 6,000 mAh battery instead of 6,150 mAh. While it's not that big of a difference, it's needless to say both models will offer different endurance as a result. Fortunately, the charging speed remains the same - 120W.

If the rest of the Indian iQOO 13's specs remain the same, you'll get a 6.82" 144Hz 1,440p LTPO AMOLED display, up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, in-display fingerprint scanner, and stereo speakers. The selfie camera should use a 32MP sensor, while the triple camera setup on the rear will comprise three 50MP units (primary, telephoto, ultrawide).

The Indian iQOO 13 will have an IP69 rating, and it's confirmed to have two color options - Legend and Nardo Grey.
