iQOO to Shake Up Indian Market with Offline Sales
iQOO made its debut in the Indian market in 2020 with the launch of the iQOO 3, selling its products exclusively through its official website and Amazon.in. However, according to a report by Gadgets360, the Vivo sub-brand is preparing to expand into India's offline retail market next month.
The report, based on "reliable sources," states that iQOO plans to make its devices available in Vivo-exclusive stores and other retail outlets. This move will give customers the opportunity to physically experience iQOO smartphones before purchasing—a feature currently unavailable due to its online-only sales model. An official announcement is expected on December 3 during the Indian launch event for the iQOO 13.
The Indian variant of the iQOO 13 will feature the same specifications as its Chinese version, with a few differences: it will run on Funtouch OS instead of OriginOS and include a slightly smaller battery (6,000 mAh compared to 6,150 mAh). The smartphone will be offered in two color options for the Indian market—Legend and Nardo Grey.
