The Amazon teaser page confirms that the iQOO Z6 Pro 5G will be powered by the Snapdragon 778G SoC, which is the same chip used on the iQOO Z5 (Review). The company has also confirmed that the iQOO Z6 Pro 5G has managed an overall AnTuTu score that surpasses 550K, which is the highest in the segment.

This suggests that the iQOO Z6 Pro 5G will put the emphasis on performance and will likely target gamers with a mid-range budget. The company has also confirmed that the iQOO Z6 Pro 5G’s price in India will fall in the sub-25K segment. This will pit it against the likes of the OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G (Review) and Realme 9 Pro+ 5G (Review).
