With pre-bookings already open, Vivo’s sub-brand has now officially unveiled the phone’s impressive display details: a stunning 2K Samsung OLED screen featuring cutting-edge M14 luminescent material. This upcoming smartphone is also confirmed to house an in-house Q3 gaming chip, promising a powerful performance.
Unpacking the iQOO 15’s Revolutionary Display
The highly anticipated iQOO 15 will indeed boast a 2K Samsung ‘Everest’ Display, incorporating advanced 2K LEAD OLED technology and Samsung’s innovative M14 luminescent material. According to rigorous testing by Vivo Labs, this new ‘Everest’ screen represents a significant leap forward. It offers a remarkable 40 percent improvement in luminous efficiency, slashes power consumption by 44 percent, boasts a 50 percent longer lifespan, and reduces screen smearing by a staggering 60 percent compared to its predecessor.
A groundbreaking feature is LEAD, introduced by Samsung and iQOO as the world’s first commercial non-polarised OLED technology. This pioneering innovation aims to significantly enhance screen transparency and expand the color gamut coverage to an impressive 1.8 times the P3 standard. Thanks to these advancements, the iQOO 15’s display is set to deliver unparalleled brightness, razor-sharp clarity, and an incredibly immersive visual experience.
Measuring a generous 6.85 inches, the iQOO 15’s 2K Samsung Everest display will reach an astounding 6,000 nits of peak local brightness and 2,600 nits of full-screen brightness. Gamers and multimedia enthusiasts will appreciate its fluid 144Hz refresh rate and an incredibly swift 3,200Hz instant touch response. Furthermore, it incorporates 8T LTPO technology for adaptive refresh rates and ultra-low motion blur for crystal-clear fast-paced action.
Beyond raw performance, user comfort is also a priority. The iQOO 15 display boasts three distinct TÜV certifications, ensuring flicker-free viewing, a polariser-free design for enhanced clarity, and dedicated gaming eye protection. It also integrates Eye Comfort 2.0 and an impressive 1-nit ultra-dim sleep mode for comfortable late-night usage. Complementing this visual powerhouse, the smartphone will also feature a brand-new, dedicated Q3 gaming chipset to deliver top-tier performance.
Interestingly, a prominent leaker known as PhoneArt (@UniverseIce) suggests that Samsung’s advanced M14 luminous material might also find its way into the rumored flagship Galaxy S26 Ultra smartphone, indicating a future trend for premium displays.
