The power of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip is complemented by the 1016 X-axis motor, known to be the largest linear motor ever incorporated into an iQOO device. This motor is nearly double the size of its predecessors. Music enthusiasts can look forward to symmetrically arranged dual speakers, ensuring a holistic auditory experience.

Design-wise, the iQOO 12 stands out with a right-angle metal middle frame and a bracket devoid of plastic. There have been whispers about its IP64-rated dust and water resistance, suggesting a robust and enduring build. Additionally, while earlier reports were ambiguous about the type of telephoto camera the iQOO 12 would possess, recent leaks suggest a 64-megapixel OV64B periscope telephoto lens. This lens, which is reportedly 30% larger than typical lenses, is complemented by a new image processing algorithm. The device is also believed to house a 50-megapixel OmniVision OV50H primary camera.
