The iQoo Z9 series could soon be expanded with the addition of a new model, according to details shared by a tipster. The lineup currently consists of the iQoo Z9, iQoo Z9x, and iQoo Z9 Turbo — these models were introduced in April. The iQoo Z9 Turbo+ model is now said to be in the works and is likely to join other devices in the series. Details of the chipset that could power the handset have also leaked online. Given the “plus” in its moniker, it’s likely to launch with higher specs than the current Turbo model.
Introducing iQoo Z9 Turbo+, features (rumored)
The purported iQoo Z9 Turbo+ is in development and could launch soon, according to a Weibo post by tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) that has since been edited. Another Weibo account Mengder Digital (translated from Chinese) claims (via Gizmachine) that the Turbo+ model is expected to feature the high-end Dimensity 9300+ chipset that MediaTek launched last month.
While there are no details on the rumored Turbo+ model, we can speculate that this iQoo Z9 Turbo variant is likely to offer better specs than the existing iQoo Z9 Turbo.
