The iQOO Z10 4G smartphone has officially been introduced in Russia, showcasing a Snapdragon processor. The device has been listed on the company’s local website, sharing a design aesthetic similar to another Vivo phone. This announcement follows the debut of the iQOO Z10 Lite 5G in India back in June. The Indian model features a dual rear camera system, prominently including a 50-megapixel main camera paired with a 2-megapixel secondary lens. The newly launched model in Russia offers 4G connectivity, and both variations are equipped with a substantial 6,000mAh battery, albeit with different charging capabilities.
Pricing and Availability of iQOO Z10 4G
The starting price of the iQOO Z10 4G in Russia is RUB 16,999 (approximately ₹18,700) for the entry-level model with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. For the version with 256GB of storage, the cost rises to RUB 18,499 (around ₹20,300). The smartphone can be purchased in two color options, Taiga (Green) and Glacier (White). However, there is currently no information regarding the potential launch of the handset in other markets, including India.
Specifications of iQOO Z10 Lite 4G
The iQOO Z10 Lite 4G features dual-SIM capability and operates on Funtouch OS 15, which is based on Android 15. It boasts a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 1,080×2,400 pixels, offering a flexible refresh rate between 60Hz and 120Hz, with peak brightness reaching up to 1,200 nits and a pixel density of 394ppi. The smartphone is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 685 processor, manufactured using a 6nm process, and comes with IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.
This model is available with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and storage options extending up to 256GB using UFS 2.2 technology. Additionally, it features a robust 6,000mAh battery that supports 44W charging, which is superior to the charging speeds of the 5G variant.
In terms of camera capabilities, the iQOO Z10 Lite 4G includes a 50-megapixel main camera with an f/1.8 aperture, accompanied by a secondary 2-megapixel camera with an f/2.4 aperture. For selfies, an 8-megapixel front camera is integrated within a hole-punch cutout, also with an f/2.0 aperture. Connectivity features include support for 4G LTE, Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band Wi-Fi, a USB Type-C 2.0 port, GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, and GNSS.
The Russian edition of the iQOO Z10 Lite 4G includes an in-display fingerprint sensor for unlocking the device. The Taiga color variant has dimensions of 162.29×75.31×7.99mm and weighs approximately 196g, while the Glacier version is slightly bulkier, measuring 162.29×75.31×8.10mm and weighing around 198g.
Notably, the primary design difference between the Indian 5G variant and the Russian 4G model is in the design of the main camera lens. The iQOO Z10 4G seems to be a redesigned version of the Vivo Y400 4G. Whereas the Indian version featured a marble-like finish on its back, the Russian version opts for a solid color.
Launched on June 18 in India, the iQOO Z10 Lite 5G was priced at ₹9,999 for the base 4GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. It sports a 6.74-inch display with an HD+ resolution (7720×1,600 pixels), a 90Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 1,000 nits. This variant is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset, alongside RAM options reaching up to 8GB and storage capabilities extending to 256GB.
