iQOO is said to launch the iQOO 16 in September , with the latest rumor from China claiming it will have a higher refresh-rate screen than its predecessor.
The word comes from reliable tipster Digital Chat Station , who claimed the iQOO 16 will feature a 165Hz refresh rate screen. It will be a 6.85" flat 2K display sourced from Samsung. For comparison, last year's iQOO 15 came with a 6.85" flat display having a 144Hz refresh rate.
Furthermore, DCS claimed that the iQOO 16's rounded corners and bezels have minimal changes, but said the camera module on the rear is small, square-shaped, and placed in the upper-left corner of the back panel as part of the revamped design.
