iQOO 13 5G Smartphone

USP

• 50MP camera 
• Triple camera 
• Large battery 

Design

The iQOO 13 5G comes with a slim and stylish design. The power and volume control buttons are located on one side. Its triple-camera bump slightly protrudes from the body. Design-wise, the bump gives the impression of a quad-camera setup, but it actually houses three cameras. Overall, the design, coupled with a glass back, gives the smartphone a premium look.

It features an IP68 and IP69 rating, making it water-resistant for up to 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter. However, due to the glass back, it is quite fragile.

The phone measures 76.71mm x 163.37mm x 8.13mm and weighs 213g, which may feel slightly heavy but is justified given its size.

The front-facing camera is placed in a punch-hole design. If you’re looking for a slider selfie camera, this might not be the right choice.

Available Colors:

• Nardo Grey
• Legend
