Even though we have started seeing a lot of phones with mid-range MediaTek Dimensity 5G SoC, Snapdragon-powered mid-range 5G smartphones are less. The iQOO Z3 will be the first phone to be powered by Snapdragon 768G SoC in India.
It is not clear if the company plans to launch all the versions of the phone in India that includes 6GB + 128GB, 8GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB. It starts at 1699 yuan (US$ 265 / Rs. 19,350 approx.) in China.
