Reports say the iQOO 16 is now tipped to include an 8,400mAh battery, after earlier rumors pointed to an 8,500mAh cell. The updated figure comes from the tipster Digital Chat Station, which had previously suggested the higher capacity and now says it is confirmed.
Both outlets describe the iQOO 16 as the successor to the iQOO 15, with the phone reportedly expected to launch later this year and potentially alongside a related “T” model. Leaks and benchmark listings are also cited as background for other expected specifications and design details, though no official details are provided. While the new reports focus on battery size, they also note that the iQOO 16 may keep similar wired charging capabilities to the iQOO 15, which is said to charge at up to 100W. Wireless charging support is also mentioned as possible, but the charging wattage remains unclear.
Compared with the iQOO 15’s 7,000mAh battery, the iQOO 16’s rumored 8,400mAh capacity would still represent an upgrade. The sources differ only in the earlier versus updated battery rumor figures, not in the overall direction of the change.
