iQOO has revealed more official details about the Z11 Lite ahead of its July 24 launch in India. The phone succeeds last year’s Z10 Lite and brings upgrades such as a larger battery, faster charging, and a brighter display.
Display and Chipset
The iQOO Z11 Lite features a 6.74-inch HD+ LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,200 nits peak brightness, compared to 1,000 nits on its predecessor.
Powering the phone is the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset paired with a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU. This matches earlier benchmark listings.
Interestingly, earlier Geekbench listings suggested the phone would offer up to 8GB RAM with 128GB storage. However, iQOO’s official specifications list up to 6GB RAM and 256GB storage. The final memory configurations will be confirmed when the complete specifications are announced at launch.
Battery
The Z11 Lite packs a 6,500 mAh battery, an increase over the Z10 Lite’s 6,000 mAh unit. Charging has also been upgraded from 15W to 44W FlashCharge. The phone also supports reverse wired charging and bypass charging.
iQOO says the battery is designed to retain 80% of its health after five years of use. The company also claims up to 20 hours of social media usage, up to 80 hours of music playback, and up to 8 hours of calling with a 10-minute charge.
Camera and Software
The phone features a 50MP Sony rear camera. While some reports identify it as the Sony IMX852 sensor, iQOO has not officially confirmed the sensor model. According to previous reports, the camera system includes a 50MP primary sensor, a 2MP secondary camera, and a 5MP front camera.
The Z11 Lite runs OriginOS 6 based on Android 16. iQOO has confirmed two years of Android OS updates and four years of security updates.
Other confirmed features include an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance, a vertically stacked rear camera module with a multi-color LED notification light, and two color options: Solar Flame and Midnight Blue.
Pricing and Availability
The iQOO Z11 Lite will launch in India on July 24 and will be available through Amazon, iQOO’s online store, and select offline retail outlets. The company has confirmed that the phone will be priced under ₹20,000.
