iQOO 15 Ultra launch seems to have been delayed

The iQOO 15 Ultra may not be arriving as soon as enthusiasts had hoped. Fresh commentary from a well-known Weibo tipster suggests the device’s timeline has shifted, raising new questions about when—or even if—the ultra-premium model will make its official debut.

The tipster was asked directly about the release timing of the iQOO 15 Ultra. The response was brief but telling, stating that the phone “seems to have been delayed.” No additional explanation was provided, but the comment fueled speculation around the status of iQOO’s most anticipated high-end variant.

The standard iQOO 15 was officially launched on October 20 this year. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and includes a dedicated Q3 gaming chip, a 3x telephoto camera, a refined camera island design, and a 7,000mAh battery. On the front, the phone features a Samsung 2K M14 OLED display that reaches up to 2,600 nits in high-brightness mode and peaks at 6,000 nits. Cooling is handled by an 8K vapor chamber system—the largest VC solution ever used by the brand. You can check out our full review of the phone for a deeper look.

Coming back to the rumored “Ultra” model, the branding alone suggests it will be even more spec-heavy, at least in some areas—potentially offering a more capable camera system. Like the regular model, the iQOO 15 Ultra is expected to target a specific user base.

Taken together, the latest remarks reinforce the idea that iQOO’s Ultra model remains in limbo. For now, the iQOO 15 Ultra appears to be delayed, with its future hinging on internal decisions that have yet to be finalized.
