Plot twist: iQOO Z10 Lite will be powered by a Dimensity chip, not Snapdragon
Last week, iQOO announced that it would unveil the iQOO Z10 Lite on June 18 with a 6,000 mAh battery under the hood. The brand didn't share any other specs, but it had tagged Snapdragon India's account in its X post (which still exists), suggesting the Z10 Lite would be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon chip. However, in an interesting turn of events, iQOO has announced that the Z10 Lite will have MediaTek's Dimensity 6300 SoC at the helm.
The teasers dropped by iQOO's Indian branch on X also reveal the Z10 Lite will have an IP64 rating and feature a 3.5mm headphone jack.
