You get up to 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM, and it also supports 8GB of virtual RAM for smoother multitasking. The phone comes in 128GB and 256GB storage options, and it supports microSD cards up to 1TB.

The phone runs Android 15 out of the box with Funtouch OS 15 on top. iQOO has promised 2 years of Android updates and 3 years of security updates, which is good to see at this price.

On the back, there is a 50 megapixels primary camera with a Sony sensor, along with a 2 megapixels depth sensor. On the front, you get a 5 megapixels camera for selfies..

There is also a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for quick unlocking. You also get stereo speakers and a 3.5mm headphone jack, which many users still prefer.

The iQOO Z10 Lite 5G comes in two colours: Titanium Blue and Cyber Green. The phone carries an IP64 rating that makes it resistant to dust and splashes. It weighs 202 grams and is 8.19mm thick, which is quite decent considering the large battery.
