iQOO's new 5-series of smartphones is also slated to debut 120W charging speeds

Recently, iQOO introduced its fastest-ever charging standard. Known as FlashCharge, it is rated to power a device at no less than 120W, which may make for some seriously reduced wall-wart dependency. Now, the Vivo sub-brand has hinted that at least one of its upcoming phones will be the first to bring it to consumers.

Indeed, an iQOO 5 variant may have this 120W technology as a unique selling point. It is currently believed to be called the Pro, and may launch alongside a more budget sibling without the feature.

iQOO recently demonstrated FlashCharge 120W at the ChinaJoy trade expo in a phone largely hidden by a heavy-duty case; it is possible that this 5 Pro was the device in question.

Should this be the case, the upcoming iQOO product might also have a single punch-hole in a curved display. As its possible teaser material mentioned the term "15mins", its battery may have a capacity of 4000mAh.

This is because iQOO estimates it takes FlashCharge 120W only 15 minutes to fully charge a battery of this size. These official leaks may all come to fruition at the 5-series' August 17, 2020 launch.
