iQOO 5 and iQOO 5 Pro with 50MP Samsung GN1 sensor, 120W FlashCharge launched in China

Vivo’s iQOO sub-brand is gaining steady ground in China and other markets, largely thanks to some innovative technologies from its parent company. Devices like the iQOO 3 are one of the cheapest Snapdragon 865 phones around, while the company was also teasing its 120W FlashCharge solution. Today, at an event in China, iQOO has launched the iQOO 5 and iQOO 5 Pro, sporting its 120W FlashCharge solutions and a camera setup that is reminiscent of the Vivo X50 Pro+.

As expected, the biggest star of the show is the Pro variant, but the iQOO 5 also packs in its own punch. The display on both the devices is a 120Hz 6.56″ FHD+ AMOLED with support for HDR10+. Both the phones come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, alongside healthy amounts of LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage.

The phones diverge when it comes to battery, charging, and cameras. The iQOO 5 has a bigger 4500mAh battery but “slower” 55W fast charging support, while the iQOO 5 Pro has a smaller 4000mAh battery with the insane 120W FlashCharge fast charging. This insane 120W fast charging solution goes from 0%-50% in 5 minutes, while a full charge takes about 15 minutes. The included FlashCharge fast charger is compatible with up to 65W USB PD and has a 1.5m cable, so you can actually use it for laptops too.

For the cameras, the front camera on both the devices is a 16MP camera residing within the hole-punch in the display. For the rear, both the phones come with the 50MP Samsung ISOCELL GN1 custom sensor that we also see on the Vivo X50 Pro+, but note that just like that smartphone, these too do not have a gimbal setup for stabilization. Instead, both have EIS, while the iQOO 5 Pro has OIS too. The 13MP ultra-wide-angle camera is common to both phones. The third camera is different: the iQOO 5 gets a 13MP depth sensor, while the iQOO 5 Pro gets an 8MP periscope camera that is capable of 5x optical zoom and 60x digital zoom. Both the phones can shoot in 8K.

Pricing and Availability

The devices will be available for the following prices in China:

• iQOO 5:

It is currently unknown if the devices will make their way out of China.
