Play your heart out without worrying about overheating with the iQoo 15
IQOO has launched its latest flagship, the iQoo 15, a device built squarely for gamers who value speed, stability and long sessions without overheating.
Unveiled last week in Kuala Lumpur, the phone arrives with a suite of hardware upgrades that push it into high-end gaming territory, including a new processor, a custom graphics chip, a 2K display developed with Samsung and a massive 7,000mAh battery.
The phone is priced at RM3,699 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant. The 16GB RAM and 512GB option is RM3,899, while the top 16GB RAM and 1TB configuration is RM4,299. All three options are sold exclusively online.
Built for players who want raw speed
At the heart of the device is the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. According to iQoo, the chip delivers a major boost in CPU and GPU efficiency. Paired with LPDDR5X memory and UFS storage, app loading and multitasking feel instant.
The phone scored more than four million points in internal benchmark tests.
Backing that performance is the company’s new Supercomputing Chip Q3. Designed in-house, it enhances graphics stability during gaming, introduces real-time ray tracing and supports AI-driven upscaling for sharper 2K visuals. In open world and competitive titles, the system maintains high frame rates while keeping temperatures under control.
Cooling is handled by an 8,000mm vapour chamber, the largest the brand has produced, strengthened with graphene layers to dissipate heat faster during extended gameplay.
Display built with Samsung
One of the biggest upgrades is the Samsung 2K M14 lead Amoled panel. The display pushes extremely high brightness levels for clear outdoor visibility and uses new materials to reduce power consumption.
Colour accuracy, eye comfort and motion clarity have also been enhanced through a triple ambient light sensor and non-polarised design that minimises reflections.
Touch responsiveness reaches up to 3,200Hz in gaming scenarios, allowing for more precise movements in fast-paced titles.
Camera system with three Sony 50MP sensors
The iQoo 15 carries three Sony 50MP cameras, including a main sensor, an ultra-wide and a 3× periscope telephoto lens. The telephoto camera supports up to 6× lossless zoom and 100× digital zoom.
Portrait modes have been refined with new film-style colour filters. Live Photos now record in 2K resolution with improved clarity and facial detail.
Powered for long sessions
The 7,000mAh battery supports 100W wired charging and 41W wireless charging. A bypass charging mode helps players continue gaming without generating excess heat.
The device maintains stability at low and high temperatures, a feature aimed at competitive gamers who need consistent output during tournaments or long sessions.
OriginOS 6 makes global debut
The iQoo 15 is the first phone to run OriginOS 6. The system promises up to five years of smooth performance through resource optimisation.
New features include improved multitasking gestures, custom lock screen widgets, cross-platform file sharing with iPhone and Mac, and more seamless animations throughout the interface.
Designed with gamers in mind
The phone includes new dual-axis haptic motors, symmetrical speakers with enhanced spatial audio and an upgraded Monster Halo lighting strip under the camera module that glows during gameplay.
The device will also be used on the esports stage. The Malaysia Esports Federation selected the iQoo 15 as the official smartphone for the World Esports Championship 2025 Mobile Legends tournament in Kuala Lumpur last week.
Available now
The iQoo 15 in Malaysia comes in two colours, Zen and Legend. Online-exclusive buyers will receive a rewards bundle worth more than RM1,000 during the preorder period, including accessories, extended warranty and screen protection.
