Earlier this week, iQOO confirmed the February 24 launch date for the iQOO 15R. The brand has now confirmed the update policy and software features in the latest teaser.
According to an updated poster on the device’s Amazon microsite, the iQOO 15R will ship with OriginOS 6 based on Android 16. The company has confirmed four major Android OS updates, which means the phone will be supported up to Android 20. Alongside this, the device will receive six years of regular security updates, counted from its launch date of February 24, 2026.
iQOO has also confirmed several built-in software features. These include One Tap Transfer support for both iOS and Android devices, Origin Island, Cross-Device File Transfer, and Screen Mirroring. On the hardware side, the company has reiterated that the iQOO 15R will use a triple-chip setup. This includes the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, a dedicated Q2 supercomputing chip for graphics tasks, and a separate network enhancement chip aimed at improving connectivity. iQOO has also officially shared that the phone has crossed the 3.5 million mark on AnTuTu.
Design details have also been partially revealed. One confirmed color option is Dark Knight. Another variant has been teased with a blue checkered texture finish on the rear, although its official color name has not yet been announced. iQOO has described the 15R as a compact flagship focused on strong daily performance.
An Amazon listing showed AnTuTu scores above 3.5 million, higher than the usual Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 average of around 3.3 million. The company also claimed a 36 percent CPU performance gain and a 46 percent NPU improvement over the previous generation.
A recent Geekbench listing under the model number Vivo I2508 (belonging to the iQOO 15R) revealed scores of 2,590 in single-core and 8,423 in multi-core tests. It also confirmed that the phone will feature 8GB of RAM. Leaks have pointed to a 6.59-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate, IP68 and IP69 ratings, up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM, up to 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage, and a triple rear camera setup led by a 200MP main sensor, plus an 8MP ultra-wide and a 32MP front camera. These features are expected to be confirmed in the coming days.
