The Pro model is the first phone to use Samsung’s E5 LTPO OLED display, which DisplayMate rated as A+. The panel is a curved 6.76-inch variety, and has 1-120hz adaptive refresh rate, 10-bit color, and Quad HD+ resolution. Its vanilla sibling settles for a flat 6.56-inch Full HD+ OLED panel that has a still-good 120hz refresh rate.
The Pro model has a top-grade 50-megapixel IMX 766 main camera (the same one used on the Find X3 Pro, Nord 2, and realme GT Master Exploration Edition) with OIS and freeform lens. It is accompanied by a 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera and a 16-megapixel telephoto camera. The vanilla model, on the other hand, scales down with a 48-megapixel IMX 598 main camera, 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and 13-megapixel telephoto camera.
Both iQOO 8 variants come with 120w fast charging, with the Pro model having a 4500mAh battery and 50w wireless charging and the vanilla model settling for a 4350mAh battery–no wireless charging included.
iQOO 8 Price
The vanilla model is priced at CNY 3799(~Php 28.8k) for the 8GB/128GB model and CNY 4199(~Php 32.3k) for the 12GB/256GB model. The Pro model, on the other hand, is priced at CNY 4999(~Php 38.9k) for the 8GB/128GB model, CNY 5499(~Php 42.8k) for the 12GB/256GB model, and CNY 5999(~Php 46.7k) for the top-tier 12GB/512GB model.
Both phones are available for pre-order in China today, and there’s no word if they will go global like the iQOO 7.
