iQOO launched the Z11 Lite last month, and a few days ago, a media report claimed that the brand was planning to launch the Z11 in India. That report has turned out to be correct, as iQOO India’s CEO Nipun Marya has teased the launch of the Z11.
In a post on X, Marya said, “DO NOT READ THE FIRST LETTER OF EVERY LINE,” and wrote seven lines after that, whose first letters were Z, E, L, E, V, E, and N. Well, that’s Z11.
DO NOT READ THE FIRST LETTER OF EVERY LINE.
Zero spoilers from me.
Everything is nearly ready.
Launch mode is officially on.
Eleven may be relevant.
Very relevant.
Excited to share more soon.
Now, I should probably stop.#iQOO— Nipun Marya (@nipunmarya) August 1, 2026
iQOO hasn’t revealed when the Z11 will make its debut in India, but the media report we mentioned above claimed the smartphone would launch in India this month.
Furthermore, the report claimed that the Indian Z11 will feature a 3D curved display and have the Dimensity 7500 Turbo SoC under the hood, which is different from what the Chinese and Malaysian Z11 have.

The Chinese Z11 is powered by the Dimensity 8500 chip, while the Malaysian Z11 has the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 SoC at the helm.
iQOO teasing the Z11 in India contradicts a rumor from last month that claimed the Z11 Lite would be the only iQOO smartphone to launch in India this year, as all other products have been canceled for the Indian market, including the iQOO 16, which is expected to go official in China in September.
While we await more details from iQOO regarding the Z11’s India launch, you can check the detailed specs comparison of the Chinese and Malaysian iQOO Z11 here to know more about them.
