Confirmations are coming in from iQOO Marketing Director, Gagan Arora that the China-based manufacturer will be launching their first ever smartphones to India later next month. Earlier we heard possibilities of iQOO being an independent brand away from it's parent organisation, Vivo Communication Technology Co. Ltd, and also that iQOO may soon get an international exposure and start to launch their gaming-friendly devices globally. Getting in line with the previous rumors, we now hear from the company's Marketing Director that the phone maker is in prep to bring both 4G, as well as 5G-enabled smartphones to the country in the subcontinent, as early as next month, to be exact, in the second week of February. The announcement came in from a recent conversation between Gagan Arora and the folks at the indian mobile. Both 5G and 4G models will be priced differently but, it's said the 4G iteration will carry an competitive price tag. Also according to the exec, iQOO will is even planning to launch a gaming-centric flagship smartphone exclusively for India, bringing Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 chipset on board, along with some of the industry first features, including a new battery technology.
