iQOO Teases Z11 India Launch at Around ₹35,000 as Leaks Point to New Dimensity 7500 Turbo

Q: Can the iQOO Z11’s curved design, 144Hz display, and huge battery justify its big jump over the Z10?

Probably yes—but only if iQOO delivers the leaked full package in India and keeps the price close to ₹35,000. On paper, the Z11 looks like a much bigger step than the Z10, not a routine refresh. The expected upgrades are substantial: a 3D curved 1.5K OLED display with 144Hz refresh rate, a battery reportedly in the 7,000mAh to 8,000mAh range, 90W charging, a 50MP main camera with OIS, IP68/IP69 protection, and a more premium curved design. If those specs hold, the Z11 would offer a noticeably more upscale experience than the Z10, which launched at ₹21,999 and sits in a lower bracket. The curved design and 144Hz panel help justify some of the price rise because they push the Z-series into upper mid-range territory. The huge battery could be the real differentiator: very few rivals around this price combine a large high-refresh OLED screen with such battery capacity and fast charging. That gives the Z11 a practical edge, not just a cosmetic one. The main caveat is performance value. India is tipped to get the Dimensity 7500 Turbo, while China reportedly has the stronger Dimensity 8500. If the Indian model arrives at ₹35,000 with a less powerful chip than some similarly priced rivals, buyers may question the premium. So the answer is yes, but conditionally: the jump over the Z10 is easier to justify on design, display, battery and features than on raw chipset value alone. Final judgment depends on actual pricing and real-world performance.

Two X posts from iQOO India CEO Nipun Marya signaled the Z11’s arrival, including an acrostic spelling “ZELEVEN” and a hand-drawn sketch showing a curved back, slim body and narrow frame.
MediaTek’s Dimensity 7500 Turbo is tipped for the India model, which would give the Z11 a third chipset version after China’s Dimensity 8500 and Malaysia’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4.
Earlier leaks point to a 3D curved AMOLED display and a price near ₹35,000, pushing the Z11 well above the iQOO Z10’s ₹21,999 starting price.
iQOO has not announced a launch date, but the teaser campaign suggests an official India unveiling is approaching in August.
