At the end of 2024, iQOO unveiled the iQOO Neo 10 and Neo 10 Pro in China, which was followed by the iQOO Neo 10 Pro+ last year. However, the company unveiled the iQOO Neo 11 equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite in November 2025 in China. A new leak reveals that the brand is now preparing to launch a new Neo 11 series phone in China. Here’s a look at the first details about this phone.

iQOO Neo 11’s first details emerge

According to tipster Smart Pikachu, the iQOO Neo 11 is scheduled to break cover in the second quarter of this year in China. However, he speculates that rising component costs may impact its rollout.

He revealed that the upcoming iQOO Neo 11 series phone will arrive with a minor upgrade in the chip department. It will swap the Snapdragon chip with a Dimensity SoC. It remains to be seen whether the device will feature the Dimensity 9500 or the toned-down Dimensity 9500s.

At present, there is no clarity about the final moniker of the phone. Therefore, it remains to be seen whether it will be called the iQOO Neo 11 Pro or something else. Apart from featuring a Dimensity chip, the rest of its specifications could be identical to the existing model.

Alleged iQOO Neo 11 Pro specifications (expected)

The Dimensity 9500 / 9500s-powered iQOO Neo 11 could feature a 6.82-inch AMOLED 1.5K 144Hz display, a 16-megapixel front camera, and a 50-megapixel (OIS) + 8-megapixel (ultra-wide) dual-camera setup. It may arrive with up to 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM, up to 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage, a 7,500mAh battery with 100W charging, an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor, and OriginOS 6-based Android 16.

In related news, a report claimed that iQOO has no plans to launch a Neo-branded phone in India this year. Therefore, the Neo 11 series phone is expected to remain exclusive to the Chinese market.

Vivo is scheduled to unveil the Vivo X300 Ultra on March 30 in China. This will be followed by the Oppo Find X9 Ultra’s launch in April. These devices will compete with the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, which debuted back in December in China. Reports suggest that the photography capabilities of the X300 Ultra and Find X9 Ultra could be better than the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, but Xiaomi may have a pricing advantage over these rivals.

Vivo X300 Ultra, Find X9 Ultra to be priced higher than Xiaomi 17 Ultra

Tipster Experience More suggests that the upcoming ultra-flagship smartphones, expected to include the Vivo X300 Ultra launching this month in China and the Oppo Find X9 Ultra arriving next month, will see noticeable price increases. Due to rising storage costs, both devices are tipped to be priced significantly higher than the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, with an estimated increase of around 500 yuan (~$70) for comparable variants.

The tipster adds that the Xiaomi 17 Ultra’s early-mover advantage was largely due to its pricing. In hindsight, the 500 yuan to 700 yuan price increase over the Xiaomi 15 Ultra now seems relatively minor, especially as upcoming ultra-flagships like the Vivo X300 Ultra and Oppo Find X9 Ultra are expected to launch at noticeably higher prices due to rising storage costs.

To recall, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra has been available in China in three versions, such as 12GB+512GB, 16GB+512GB, and 16GB+1TB. These variants are priced at 6,999 Yuan (~$1,020), 7,499 Yuan (~$1,080), and 8,499 Yuan (~$1,235), respectively.

With the Vivo X300 Ultra expected to cost 500 yuan more than the 17 Ultra, it is likely that its 12GB+512GB version could be priced at around 7,500 Yuan (~$1,090).

Speculations are rife that after Xiaomi unveils the Xiaomi 18 series in September this year in China, its sub-brand Redmi may announce the Redmi K100 series in October. The lineup is expected to include two models initially, such as the Redmi K100 and K100 Pro Max. Recent leaks have revealed a few details about the Pro Max variant. Now, in a new leak, tipster Digital Chat Station has mentioned key information about its chipset, RAM, storage, and more.

Redmi K100 Pro Max’s key details tipped

In a new Weibo post, DCS has shared details of a new sub-series performance flagship from Xiaomi. While he has not specified the name of the device, it appears to be the Redmi K100 Pro Max. According to the leak, the device may feature a next-generation 2nm Snapdragon flagship chipset, tentatively dubbed the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, alongside up to 16GB LPDDR6 RAM and 1TB storage.

The focus appears to be on delivering strong core performance and an upgraded display experience, while imaging is said to remain at a standard flagship level rather than a major upgrade. Overall, the device is tipped to offer a more balanced package in its segment, prioritizing performance, memory, and screen improvements over camera enhancements.

While DCS has claimed that the K100 Pro Max’s camera setup will not have a major upgrade, a previous leak by the same source suggested that the Redmi K100 Pro Max may feature a 200-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.

Globally, this phone may get rebranded as the Poco F9 Ultra. It is expected to launch along with the Poco F9 Pro (rebranded version of K100) in the first quarter of 2027.

Oppo recently unveiled its latest foldable smartphone, the Oppo Find N6, and early sales figures suggest a strong market response. The device, which focuses on improving foldable display quality, has already gained attention following its official release in China.

Oppo Find N6 sets foldable sales record

The above poster released by Oppo states that the Oppo Find N6 has set a new first-day sales record across all foldable smartphones in the past year. In China, the device carries a starting price of 9,999 yuan (~$1,450). According to data from major e-commerce platforms in China, the device recorded the highest first-day sales revenue among all foldable phones launched in the past year.

The brand has also indicated that certain variants, particularly the 1TB titanium color option, were quickly sold out in offline stores. This suggests strong demand for higher-end configurations of the device.

The Oppo Find N6 focuses heavily on delivering a flatter foldable display experience, addressing one of the key concerns in foldable smartphones. A major part of this improvement comes from its new titanium alloy hinge and memory glass technology. The structure is designed to maintain screen flatness even after repeated folding. The display is said to retain its shape with a very high recovery rate, helping reduce visible creases over time.

The device has also received certification for durability, including passing extensive folding tests and maintaining long-term flatness. These enhancements aim to improve reliability for everyday usage.

In terms of specifications, the Oppo Find N6 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. It features a quad-camera setup with a 200-megapixel sensor and packs a 6,000mAh battery. The device supports 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging, along with multiple levels of water resistance.

The Find N6 was also showcased at a pop-up event attended by international diplomats, highlighting interest in both its design and technological advancements. The device will be released in select global markets in the coming weeks.

On March 24, OnePlus will announce the OnePlus 15T in China. Next month, the brand may expand its Ace 6 series lineup by adding a new model. The existing models, such as the Ace 6 and Ace 6T, will soon be joined by a new model dubbed the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra. Here’s a look at what to expect from the device.

OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra’s key details, launch timeline appear

According to tipster Smart Pikachu, the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra will have a massive 6.8-inch display offering a 165Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it will feature the Dimensity 9500 chipset.

Tipster DCS claimed that the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra has already passed a certification in China, but did not reveal details about its model number. We have spotted a new Oppo/OnePlus phone with model number PMK110 in the database of China’s SRRC. It remains to be seen whether it is the upcoming OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra or something else.

This phone is expected to rival the Redmi K90 Ultra, a Dimensity 9500-powered performance-focused flagship phone, which is also expected to debut in April in China. At present, there is no clarity on whether the Ace 6 Ultra will be released globally.

New OnePlus tablets in works

OnePlus is currently working on two new tablets, such as the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro and OnePlus Pad Mini. These devices have also received an important certification in China, claims the tipster.

While the OnePlus Pad Mini will be a compact tablet featuring an 8.8-inch display and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro will be a larger model equipped with a 13.2-inch display and a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. These devices are said to be based on the forthcoming Oppo Pad Mini and Pad 5 Pro, respectively.

These devices may debut alongside the OnePlus 15T / Ace 6 Ultra.

Apple is expected to introduce its first foldable iPhone this year, but its availability timeline could be different from usual launches. As per Barclays analyst Tim Long, the device may be announced alongside the iPhone 18 Pro series but released later.

iPhone Fold: Expected launch timeline and strategy

According to Tim Long, Apple could unveil the iPhone Fold alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max in September, following its typical announcement cycle. However, the foldable model may only go on sale in December 2026, indicating a staggered rollout strategy.

Apple has followed a similar approach in the past. Devices such as the iPhone X and iPhone XR were introduced during the standard launch event but became available weeks later. This suggests that a delayed release for a new form factor like a foldable device would not be unusual.

The delay could be linked to production complexity or supply chain considerations. Reports indicate that the foldable iPhone has reached an advanced stage of development, with its design nearing completion, which supports the possibility of a release within the year.

The iPhone Fold is expected to support multitasking features such as running two apps side by side when unfolded. This would align it with existing foldable devices that focus on productivity and larger screen usage.

Tim Long also suggests that Apple may adopt a split launch strategy for its upcoming lineup. The base iPhone 18 and related models could arrive in March 2027, alongside either an iPhone Air successor or a possible return of the Plus variant.

If this strategy is implemented, Apple could move towards a more flexible release cycle, allowing it to better manage new categories like foldable devices while maintaining updates to its main lineup.

OnePlus is gearing up to launch the Nord 6 series in India. Reports have revealed that the Nord 6 and Nord CE 6 have the model numbers CPH2793 and CPH2805, respectively. These devices have already received India’s BIS certification, which is one of the prerequisites to launch a phone in the Indian market. In a new development, a new OnePlus phone has been approved by India’s BIS. While there is no concrete evidence to support the claim, this could be the forthcoming OnePlus 15s.

Alleged OnePlus 15s BIS certified

OnePlus CPH2943 has just cleared BIS certification.

This is not a Nord 6 series device. Could this be the OnePlus 15T/15s? pic.twitter.com/sQKU2bDt2w

— Sudhanshu Ambhore (@Sudhanshu1414) March 20, 2026

As can be seen above, a forthcoming OnePlus phone with model number CPH2943 has surfaced in the database of India’s BIS certification. It remains to be seen whether it could be the OnePlus 15s or something else.

OnePlus 15s specifications (expected)

The OnePlus 15s is expected to pack the same specifications as the OnePlus 15T, which is scheduled to launch on March 24 in China. However, there could be one key difference between the two models.

To recall, the OnePlus 13s, launched last year, is the company’s first phone with an autofocus-enabled 32-megapixel front camera. Therefore, it is likely that the said feature could be retained on the OnePlus 15s.

A new report has revealed that the OnePlus 15T, on the other hand, will have a 16-megapixel front camera like its previous generation. The rest of the specifications could be identical on the OnePlus 15s and 15T.

OnePlus 15s / 15T specifications

Being a slightly tweaked version of the 15T, the OnePlus 15s is expected to arrive with a 6.32-inch OLED flat 1.5K 165Hz screen, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5hh chip, up to 16GB of LPDDR5x Ultra RAM, up to 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage, and a 7,500mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging.

The 15T has a 16-megapixel front camera and an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel + 50-megapixel (3.5x periscope telephoto) dual camera setup. It has other specifications, such as an X-axis linear motor, dual speakers, a Plus key, and an IP68/69/69K-rated body.

Several reports have claimed that the Vivo X300 Ultra will pack a battery of around 7,000mAh capacity. While the phone is scheduled to launch on March 30 in China, the brand has confirmed only a few camera details but is yet to confirm other specifications, including the battery capacity. A leaked image that is now circulating online suggests that it packs a smaller battery than expected.

Vivo X300 Ultra key details emerge

As can be seen above, the Vivo X300 Ultra image circulating on Weibo reveals several key details about its specifications. Under the hood, the device is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.

The chip is accompanied by 16GB of RAM, 16GB of virtual RAM, and 512GB of internal storage. The screenshot also mentions the inclusion of Vivo’s VS1 and V3+ chips. The VS1 reportedly handles image pre-processing (before ISP), while the V3+ takes care of post-processing (after capture) to enhance final photo and video output.

Coming to the elephant in the room, the Vivo X300 Ultra does not pack a 7,000mAh battery as rumors claimed. Instead, it features a 6,600mAh unit, which is still larger than the 6,510mAh battery that powers the existing Vivo X300 Pro. Therefore, the X300 Ultra’s battery is expected to last more than a day with normal usage. As per recent certifications, the Ultra edition may support 100W wired charging, and as per other reports, it may support 40W or 50W wireless charging.

Speaking of battery size, the Vivo X300s, which is scheduled to launch alongside the X300 Ultra, will pack the largest battery seen on an X-series device. It is said to feature a massive 7,100mAh battery.

These devices, along with the Vivo Pad 6 Pro and a rumored vlogging camera, are also scheduled to launch on March 30. Most of these products may remain exclusive to China, while the X300 Ultra is expected to release globally in the second quarter of this year.

Similar to its predecessor, the device does not include an ultra-wide camera.

The listing further reveals that the device measures 150.56 x 71.82 x 8.48mm and weighs 194 grams. It features a glass fibre back paired with a metal frame.

OnePlus has started revealing more information about the upcoming OnePlus 15T ahead of its official debut in China on March 24. The company has now confirmed key aspects of the device’s imaging system and also shared early camera samples, offering a glimpse of what users can expect from its photography experience.

OnePlus 15T: Camera hardware and zoom capabilities

The OnePlus 15T features a 50-megapixel Sony IMX906 primary camera with a large sensor designed to capture more light and improve dynamic range. This sensor has already appeared on several flagship devices and is known for maintaining detail even in challenging lighting conditions. The main camera is accompanied by a periscope telephoto lens with a 50-megapixel sensor, which may feature the Samsung JN5 sensor.

This telephoto camera supports 3.5x optical zoom and can extend to 7x lossless zoom through image processing. The lens structure allows a longer focal length inside a compact smartphone body, making it possible to capture distant subjects with greater clarity. The 3.5x zoom corresponds to an equivalent 85mm portrait focal length, which is widely used for natural-looking close-up shots. Here are some camera samples shared by the brand.

A notable part of the camera system is the Lumo imaging platform, an imaging technology brand introduced by Oppo and adapted for OnePlus devices. It focuses mainly on improving portrait photography. The platform combines advanced optical data capture, computational depth processing, and colour rendering technologies to deliver more accurate skin tones and realistic background blur.

The system includes a computational optics framework that gathers optical information across multiple focal lengths, along with a digital imaging engine that recreates optical depth effects through spatial computing. Another component called ProXDR enables an end-to-end HDR workflow, ensuring photos maintain high dynamic range from preview to final image and sharing.

The OnePlus 15T is also expected to include optical image stabilization across its rear cameras to improve photo sharpness and reduce blur. Apart from imaging upgrades, reports indicate that the device will feature a 6.32-inch flat OLED 1.5K display with a 165Hz refresh rate, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, up to 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM, up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage, and a large 7,500mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. It will be available in brown, white, and green shades.
