The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
iQOO gains consistent press attention for product launches centered on performance hardware, particularly large batteries and high-resolution cameras like the 15T's 200MP sensor and Neo12's active cooling. The brand's marketing claims align closely with what reviewers and outlets highlight, though coverage remains focused on specs rather than broader user experience.
