The iQOO 15. It hit the market in India today, December 1. Right at 12 pm IST. That’s when the first sale opened up.

This thing is a beast. We knew it was coming—it launched in China first, back in October.¹ But the official Indian debut? That was November 26. And now? It’s on sale. It happened. And now the buying frenzy follows.

The core specs are just… heavy-duty. We’re talking Qualcomm’s latest chip, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.² Up to ³16\ \text{GB} of RAM, those too.⁴ What draws people to this thing? The screen. A massive ⁵6.85\text{-inch} Samsung M14 AMOLED panel, running at a super smooth ⁶144\ \text{Hz}.⁷ And the battery? 7,000\ \text{mAh}.⁸ With ⁹100\ \text{W}wired fast charging support, because of course it does.¹⁰ You need that power back quick.

 What is This Flagship Going to Cost You?

It’s a top-tier phone, so the price is up there. You’ve got two main variants:

• Base Model: ¹¹12\ \text{GB} RAM / ¹²256\ \text{GB} storage.¹³ That’s starting at Rs. 72,999.¹⁴

• High-End: ¹⁵16 \text{GB} RAM / ¹⁶512\ \text{GB} storage.¹⁷ This one hits Rs. 79,999.¹⁸

You can grab it from Amazon, the iQOO e-store, even some Vivo and other offline stores.²⁰ It’s out there.

The Real Deal: Launch Offers & That Bank Cut

This is what everyone is checking for—the launch deals. Because that sticker price? It drops fast with the offers.

The big one is the Rs. 7,000 instant bank discount. You use an Axis, HDFC, or ICICI Bank card, and boom.²¹ That Rs. 72,999 base model? It effectively drops to Rs. 64,999. The 16\text{GB}version? Rs. 71,999. That’s a chunk of change, or nothing.

Jotting down the other ways to save money:

• Exchange: You can opt for an exchange bonus worth up to Rs. 7,000 instead of the bank discount. This price depends on your old phone, obviously. Condition, model—all those factors.

• Coupon: There’s an extra Rs. 1,000 discount coupon if you’re eligible. Stack that on top.

• EMI: No-cost EMI options are available for up to 24 months.²² For those who want to spread out the pain of paying, or nothing.

It’s a strong start for the phone, pushing right into the flagship killer space. You see the comparison mentions? iQOO 15 vs OnePlus 15 vs Realme GT 8 Pro. That’s the arena we’re in. This thing is gunning for the top, no question. The sale is live, the clock is running on these early bird deals.
