Let's rewind to December 2021, when the vivo Developer Conference officially unveiled the OriginOS operating system. A demo phone with an extreme all-side equal-width design and straight-edged frame appeared at the launch event. At that time, no one could recognize which vivo phone it was, and it turned out to be just a concept product showcased for demonstration purposes. Who would have thought that in 2024, vivo would actually bring this demo device to life, and even release two models based on it. One is the vivo X200 Promini, and the other is the iQOO 13.

This was confirmed by iQOO's product manager himself, who further stated that the minimalist exterior design is captivating, and the perfect straight-screen flagship has finally materialized, with two models released at once. As for the vivo X200 Promini, there's no need to elaborate further; official preheating has already begun, revealing almost all its secrets. Its front looks exactly like the futuristic model used to demonstrate OriginOS visuals back then, incredibly minimalistic. In a way, vivo has turned their dream into a reality. They had clearly set their sights on creating such a phone back then.

Since the vivo X200 series has been officially confirmed, today we'll focus on the iQOO 13. On October 8th, the renowned digital blogger "Digital Chat Station" officially revealed the core specifications of the iQOO 13. Based on his information, the iQOO 13 will undoubtedly be built upon the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset. It will feature a 2K resolution display with Q10 luminescent material (allegedly the latest and belonging to the next generation of luminescent materials) custom-made by BOE, which is expected to be the best 2K screen in China this year.

Simultaneously, it will be paired with iQOO's self-developed Q2 gaming chip, a minimum 6000mAh battery with support for private 120W wired and public 100W PPS fast charging. It will also include a large X-axis linear motor, large symmetrical dual speakers, IP68 water resistance, USB3.X support, and most importantly, single-point ultrasonic fingerprint recognition.

It's fair to say that the iQOO 13 boasts rather impressive specifications. Furthermore, iQOO has scrapped the Pro version this time around, deciding to treat the standard version as the Pro. The only uncertainty remaining is the imaging performance, as some speculate that it might downgrade in this aspect. More importantly, the pricing of the iQOO 13 is yet to be confirmed. I personally predict that its price will exceed the standard version of last year but fall below the Pro version from the same year.

From a configuration standpoint, the iQOO 13 is undoubtedly a powerful phone, equipped with the latest flagship chipset from Qualcomm and a high refresh rate, high-resolution screen. Combined with iQOO's self-developed Q2 gaming chip, the gaming experience is expected to reach new heights. The 6000mAh battery capacity and 120W fast charging also provide ample battery life and charging speed.

In addition, the iQOO 13 features a large X-axis linear motor and symmetrical dual speakers, which further enhance the overall user experience. Notably, the iQOO 13 also supports IP68 water resistance and single-point ultrasonic fingerprint recognition, enhancing the phone's practicality and security.

Overall, the iQOO 13 is a high-end flagship phone that offers top-tier performance, an exceptional screen experience, powerful battery life, and abundant features. It's anticipated to be a new milestone product for the iQOO brand and deliver a truly immersive experience for users.

Of course, the specific pricing and imaging performance of this phone will depend on the official unveiling. Let's wait and see!
