iQOO 16 could come with an 8,400 mAh battery and 100 W charging

    The iQOO 16 smartphone, which is expected to be unveiled this month, is claimed to have an 8,400 mAh battery. Digital Chat Station previously reported that the battery would have a capacity of 8,500 mAh. The source now says that the 8,400 mAh figure has been confirmed. This is 100 mAh less than previously reported. Nevertheless, the new model’s battery will be considerably larger than the 7,000 mAh battery in the iQOO 15.    According to the information, the iQOO 16 will support 100 W wired charging. This is the same as the iQOO 15. The smartphone will also support wireless charging, but the charging power has not yet been disclosed. By comparison, the previous model supports 40 W wireless charging. It is unclear whether the new device will offer faster wireless charging.    The smartphone is reported to feature a 6.85-inch flat display with 2K resolution and a 165 Hz refresh rate. The 165 Hz refresh rate helps motion in menus and games appear smoother. The fingerprint scanner is expected to be located under the display. It is said to use 3D ultrasonic technology that recognizes a finger through sound waves. According to the claims, the iQOO 16 will have IP68 and IP69 ratings for water and dust resistance.    The main camera is said to feature a 50 MP OmniVision OV50Q sensor. An image circulated some time ago showed that the rear camera module had been redesigned. The iQOO 16 is also expected to have a dedicated graphics chip. However, no information has been provided about the chip’s specifications or capabilities.    A test device spotted in the Geekbench database featured the yet-to-be-unveiled Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 processor. The listing also showed 16 GB of RAM and the Android 17 operating system. iQOO has not yet officially confirmed this information. Although the unveiling is expected to take place this month, the exact date is unknown.
