Last month, Vivo introduced the new gaming flagship iQOO 8 Pro. The model has already appeared on sale in China with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888+ chipset. The device is not yet officially available outside the Chinese market, but a global release will take place very soon, since information about the corresponding version has already appeared in the Geekbench benchmark.
Obviously, the iQOO 8 Pro is already gearing up for a global release. The model, codenamed vivo l2017, appeared recently in Geekbench with the Lahaina chipset; this is the name in use in the benchmark to refer to Qualcomm Snapdragon 888+. Apparently, there have been no big changes in the international version of the smartphone – it uses the same mobile platform as its counterpart for the Chinese market.
