The global iQOO 7 features a 6.62-inch AMOLED with a 120Hz refresh rate and the company claims it can reach a peak brightness of 1300 nits.

The triple camera on the back has a main 48MP Sony IMX598 sensor, 13MP ultrawide-angle snapper with 120 FoV and a basic 2 MP B&W camera.

The battery of the iQOO 7 has 4,400 mAh capacity, and matches the Legend’s 66W fast charging that tops the cell from 0 to 100% in 22 minutes, at least according to the brand.

Since the phone is gaming-oriented, it has a 6000 sq. mm graphite layer, fully covering the liquid cooling system for better heat dissipation.
