Here's your first look at the upcoming iQOO 16

iQOO has teased the design of its upcoming iQOO 16 smartphone, highlighting a unique rear camera module and a hexagonal pattern on the 'Light Chaser' variant. The device is expected to feature high-end specifications, including a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
Why it matters
The leak provides early insight into the design and hardware trends of the next generation of flagship Android devices.
After teasing the iQOO 16’s redesigned rear camera module earlier this week , the company has now offered a closer look at the phone’s overall rear design. The handset will debut later this month alongside the iQOO Pad Ultra.
The iQOO 16’s square-shaped rear camera module features a raised lip surrounding the triple-camera setup, which is arranged in a unique layout. The LED flash is positioned in the top-right corner, outside the module, while the “100x Tele” text is printed inside the camera island.
The raised lip appears to offer some added protection to the camera lenses, which is a nice touch. Meanwhile, the rear panel of the ‘Light Chaser’ variant shown here features a distinctive hexagonal pattern.
