iQOO Z5 Launch Timeline In India Tipped
According to renowned tipster Debayan Roy (@GadgetsData), the Z5 could arrive in India in September this year. Regrettably, details about the exact date are still scarce. If iQOO is actually gearing up to unveil the smartphone, the company is likely to start teasing it on various social media platforms soon. Before this, the company has already made a couple of major announcements after the iQOO 7 and the iQOO 7 Legend. The word on the street is that the company is also working on an iQOO Z5 Pro.
It is worth mentioning here that iQOO launched the iQOO 8 and 8 Pro in China in August this year. However, Roy claims that the company isn’t planning to launch the aforesaid handsets in India anytime soon. Nevertheless, both phones will launch in the country at some point in time. In other words, it is highly unlikely that the iQOO 8 series will see the light of the day this month. According to 91mobiles, the phone could arrive in India before this year comes to an end.
