In the fast-paced world of smartphones, the iQoo 12 has emerged as a trailblazer, setting new standards for design and performance. Let’s delve into the first impressions of this cutting-edge device that seamlessly blends mature design with flagship specifications.
1. iQoo 12 Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Takes Center Stage
The iQoo 12 has stormed into the Indian market, beating industry giants like Xiaomi and OnePlus with the distinction of being the first smartphone to feature Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. This powerhouse of a processor is complemented by the in-house Q1 coprocessor, ensuring a performance that leaves competitors in the dust.
2. Aesthetics Redefined: Alpha and Legend Colorways
Presented in Alpha and Legend color variants, the iQoo 12 boasts a striking design. The Alpha version, adorned in black with an AG Glass rear panel, exudes sophistication. Meanwhile, the Legend variant, which we had the privilege to review, stands out in pristine white with a porcelain enamel glass material. A departure from its predecessor, the iQoo 11 5G, the racing stripes are replaced with a sleek, minimalist aesthetic.
3. iQoo 12 Design and Display Harmony
With flat metallic edges and a slightly curved rear panel, the iQoo 12 offers a comfortable grip. The 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display, featuring minimal bezels and a peak brightness of 1,400 nits (3,000 nits in high brightness mode), ensures a visually immersive experience even in broad daylight.
4. iQoo 12 Triple Rear Camera Setup
On the rear panel, the iQoo 12 showcases a triple rear camera setup housed in a distinctive squircle-shaped island, inspired by a submarine porthole. The 1/1.3-inch OmniVision OV50H sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom promise exceptional photography capabilities.
5. iQoo 12 Unleashing Power and Efficiency
Boasting a 4nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, coupled with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 256GB of inbuilt storage, the iQoo 12 is a powerhouse. A substantial 5,000mAh battery ensures lasting performance, and the inclusion of a 120W charger in the box adds to the device’s convenience.

6. iQoo 12 Accessories and User Experience
The iQoo 12 comes with thoughtful inclusions, such as a transparent TPU cover providing comprehensive protection. The 120W charger and USB Type-C to Type-C cable contribute to the device’s versatility. However, users need to toggle a setting for the 120W charging, which, although efficient, leads to a slight warming during full charges.
7. iQoo 12 A Promise of Exceptional Value

As it enters a market teeming with flagship contenders, its competitive pricing positions it as a compelling choice for those seeking top-notch performance without breaking the bank.
