Last updated: August 2026

iQOO has pulled the covers off the Z11 5G in India, and it's aiming squarely at buyers who want flagship-adjacent numbers — big battery, high refresh rate, fast charging — without flagship pricing. The headline act is the MediaTek Dimensity 7500 Turbo, a chipset that's launching in India on this phone before it shows up anywhere else, paired with a 7,050mAh battery that's unusually large even for a segment that's been racing toward bigger cells all year.

At a starting price of ₹34,999, the Z11 lands in one of the most contested brackets in the Indian market, going up against recent launches like the POCO M8x 5G and a stack of Vivo, Realme and Redmi phones all fighting for the same upper-mid-range buyer. Here's everything confirmed about the price, specs and sale date, plus what you should know before you decide.

Price in India

iQOO has confirmed four variants for the Z11 5G:

  • 6GB RAM + 128GB storage — ₹34,999
  • 8GB RAM + 128GB storage — ₹39,999
  • 8GB RAM + 256GB storage — ₹44,999
  • 12GB RAM + 256GB storage — ₹49,999

That's a fairly wide spread across the lineup, and it puts the top variant close to phones that ship with a flagship-tier chipset — so the RAM/storage tier you pick matters more than usual here. Most early coverage frames the 8GB+128GB option as the sensible middle ground for everyday use.

Availability and Sale Date

The iQOO Z11 5G goes on sale in India starting August 25, 2026 at 12 PM, through Amazon India, iQOO's own online store, and select offline retail partners. If you're tracking the launch to buy on day one, that's the date and time to have your cart ready.

Key Features

The two things iQOO is leaning on hardest for marketing are the chipset and the battery. The Dimensity 7500 Turbo is being positioned as a genuine step up for gaming and everyday multitasking in this price band, and the 7,050mAh battery — paired with 44W wired charging — is among the largest cells you'll find at this price point in India right now. On top of that:

  • A curved 6.83-inch AMOLED panel at 1.5K resolution with a 144Hz refresh rate and 2,000-nit peak brightness
  • A 50MP main rear camera with an 8MP ultra-wide, plus a 32MP front camera
  • IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance — rare at this price
  • A slim 7.99mm profile despite the oversized battery, weighing 199g
  • OriginOS 6.0 running on Android 16 out of the box

Should You Buy It?

The iQOO Z11 makes a strong first impression on paper — the battery and chipset alone would be enough to stand out in this bracket. But a few things are worth weighing before you commit. First, it's a brand-new chipset with no independent benchmarks or real-world battery/thermal reviews yet, so early buyers are taking a bit of a leap of faith on performance and heat management. Second, 44W charging is respectable but not class-leading — some rivals in the same price band already push well past 65W, so top-ups will take noticeably longer on the Z11 despite its bigger tank. And third, at ₹44,999–₹49,999, the higher-RAM variants start brushing up against phones running last-generation flagship silicon, which may be the better call if raw performance matters more to you than battery size.

If all-day battery life, a smooth 144Hz display and IP69 durability are your priorities over having the absolute fastest chip, the Z11 is a genuinely compelling pick — especially once real-world reviews confirm how the Dimensity 7500 Turbo actually performs under sustained load.

Protect Your iQOO Z11 From Day One

Frequently Asked Questions

The Z11x runs a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Turbo with a 7,200mAh battery, while the standard Z11 uses the newer Dimensity 7500 Turbo and a 7,050mAh battery, along with a higher-resolution 1.5K display. Don't mix up accessories between the two; they're different devices.

The base 6GB+128GB variant starts at ₹34,999, with the top 12GB+256GB configuration priced at ₹49,999.

When can I buy the iQOO Z11 in India?

Sales open on August 25, 2026 at 12 PM through Amazon India, iQOO's official online store, and offline retail.

Does the iQOO Z11 support fast charging?

Yes, it supports 44W wired fast charging, though a full charge on its large 7,050mAh cell will still take longer than phones with 65W-100W charging in the same price range.

Final Thoughts

The iQOO Z11 is one of the more interesting upper-mid-range launches of the week, combining a first-in-India chipset with genuinely class-leading battery capacity. Whether it's the right buy comes down to how much you value battery life and display smoothness over raw benchmark performance — and how comfortable you are being an early adopter of a chip with no independent reviews yet.
