Based on a tip from Mukul Sharma, iQOO is expected to launch a new entry-level 5G smartphone, the iQOO Z9 Lite, in mid-July 2024. This would be the third phone in the Z9 series, following the iQOO Z9 5G and iQOO Z9x 5G. The leak suggests the phone will come in brown and blue color options.
The iQOO Z9 Lite will most probably be priced under Rs. 12,000 in India
There’s speculation that the iQOO Z9 Lite might be a rebranded version of the Vivo T3 Lite 5G, expected to launch in India on June 27th powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC. Specific details about the iQOO Z9 Lite remain unknown, but considering the existing Z9 and Z9x models are priced starting at Rs 20,000 and Rs 13,000 respectively, the Z9 Lite is expected to be priced under Rs 12,000 to target the budget segment. With the launch expected next month, more information about the Z9 Lite should surface soon.
If the rumors of the Z9 Lite being a rebrand are true, it suggests the company might be looking to capture a wider audience in the budget 5G smartphone market. With the launch approaching, tech enthusiasts can expect more details about the iQOO Z9 Lite’s specifications, features, and official pricing to emerge in the coming weeks.
