The iQOO 10 Pro arrived in late July with a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, and the vivo brand is already working on the successor. According to the leakster Digital Chat Station, the iQOO 11 Pro will have the SM8550 platform by Qualcomm - the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

The San Diego company is planning to introduce its flagship SoC in mid-November, meaning there are about 3 months before the iQOO 11 series are official.

The source also claimed the new iQOO phone will have a new E6 AMOLED by Samsung with a single punch hole. The letter E stands for “energy efficiency” and while the panel manages to keep its brightness levels, power usage goes down, providing even more battery life.
