After using the phone with 13–14 hours of daily screen time, I still really like it. The performance, smoothness, battery, photos and overall experience are all very good. My main complaints are the video-call battery drain, the occasional app-launch bug, and mediocre video recording.

Pros & cons
The 1440x3168 AMOLED screen combines sharp detail, a fluid 144 Hz refresh rate and 6000 nits peak brightness. It is particularly strong for outdoor use, gaming and high-resolution video.
The 7000 mAh battery is unusually large for a flagship, while 100 W charging takes it from 20% to 100% in 45 minutes. Convenient 40 W wireless charging is included.
The processor, up to 16 GB RAM and UFS 4.1 storage deliver exceptionally fast apps, games and file transfers. Five years of operating-system updates also support longer ownership.
The three 50 MP rear cameras cover wide, ultrawide and 3x periscope views. Optical stabilisation helps with steadier low-light photos, while the 32 MP front camera offers detailed selfies.
Rear video tops out at 1080p, which is a major compromise when competing flagships commonly offer 4K60 or 8K. This makes the phone difficult to recommend for serious video work.
The 6.85-inch screen and 216.2-gram body make this a substantial phone. Buyers seeking comfortable one-handed use will find smaller flagships easier to manage.
What owners say
From RedditI got IQOO 15 and I use “ black magic app”for video recording…. So basically, it’s an android app available for entirely free on google play store. It give you a better control over your camera settings and video recordings. You can create professional videography with it.
Also about the native camera app that IQOO gives , it’s really sucks man. I also don’t like it because it’s not optimised in accordance to device configuration. I mean a guy with IQOO neo can shoot the same video like me even though completely different processing power and camera setup.
Owning an iqoo 15 since 2 weeks and I can tell the battery life is good,cameras are decent and performance justifies the price....the only issue I encountered is battery suddenly drops when above 80 and some drops in performance if you're doing heavy gaming...os is okay but I encountered a few bugs here and there
iQOO 15 User here. Great device. The only con is that indoor video recording at 1080p in low light feels very poor. Maybe it's the same on all other devices. Expect this, I like everything in this device.
Recently bought the IQOO 15 @65000 rs after card offer,thought it was a good deal, I got this because I'm very into gaming/content consuming and thought the new samsung panel,Q3 chip,the latest and greatest "origin os" would do wonders.Nope, couldn't have been more wrong.
One of the worst UI's ever designed,it has the following: ads/suggestions on a fucking 65k phone bloatware to the brim cannot hide system apps like v-store etc.. Os buggy as hell,slow,sluggish,not the bouncy smoothness advertised Battery is not great either
It's great! I've been using for 5 months. No issue whatsoever. Although, I still haven't done any software update. Because last time I use another China phone, I faced heating and battery draining issue. So, I'm careful now.
And also the updates are useless anyway. All they add are bunch of useless AI bullshit. Anyway, phone is smooth and display feel premium like my old Samsung S24. And I play game with mobile game controller.
Usually pay heavy games like Wuthering Waves, NTE, Where winds meet on high (not ultra) settings. Battery back up is great! And temp cool down really fast. Within 4-5 min.
