Early leaks regarding future iQOO smartphones have surfaced, pointing to substantial hardware upgrades for the brand's performance-oriented lineup. According to new reports, an upcoming device tipped as either the iQOO Z12 Turbo or iQOO 16R is currently in the works.
The standout highlight from the leak is the inclusion of a built-in cooling fan. While active cooling mechanisms are commonly reserved for dedicated gaming handsets, integrating such hardware into an iQOO device suggests a strong focus on sustained gaming performance and superior thermal management.
Under the hood, the handset is said to carry a future Snapdragon 8 Gen 6 processor. If accurate, pairing Qualcomm's high-tier silicon with active cooling could provide notable efficiency and power gains over standard passively cooled alternatives.
