The iQOO 13 is set to make its debut in India on December 3. However, the model to be launched in India is likely to differ from the Chinese model that made its debut in late October. Notably, both versions are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, but the major differences will be in terms of battery capacity and colour options. In India, the smartphone will be available in two colour options: Nardo Gray and the Legend Edition. Interestingly, the Legend Edition, which features an exclusive white finish, will not be priced higher. In China, the iQOO 13 is available in two colour options: Track Black and Isle of Man Green, which won’t be available in India. 

The Redmi Note 14 series will be making its debut in India on December 9, which will include Redmi Note 14, Note 14 Pro, and Note 14 Pro Plus. The Redmi Note 14 Pro is powered by the MediaTek Dimemsity 7300 Ultra.

Vivo is set to launch its Vivo X200 series in December. The series will include the X200, X200 Pro, and X200 Pro Mini. Notably, the mini variant will remain exclusive to China. The lineup will largely focus on seamless photography. The top model, the Vivo X200 Pro, is equipped with a 50MP Sony camera, a 200MP Zeiss APO Telephoto sensor, and a 50MP ultrawide sensor. All three models will be equipped with Dimensity 9400 chipset.
