iQOO launched the Z11xa 5G in India on September 7. The company built the phone for students who juggle online classes, assignments, gaming and social media throughout the day. It leads with a large battery, a reasonable processor for its price segment and added durability.
The iQOO Z11xa 5G costs INR 28,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant. However, the net effective price drops to INR 27,499 after launch discounts. Buyers can choose between two colours: Titan Black and Prismatic Green. Sales begin on September 14 at 12 noon. The phone will be available on Amazon.in, iQOO.com, select vivo exclusive stores and other retail outlets. iQOO hasn’t announced any other RAM or storage configurations for the Z11xa so far.
The Z11xa runs on MediaTek’s Dimensity 7400-Turbo chip, built on a 4nm process. It pairs four Cortex-A78 performance cores with four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores. iQOO claims an AnTuTu score of over 890,000 for the chip. The phone comes with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Users can also extend RAM by up to 8GB using storage as virtual memory.

The 7200mAh battery is the phone’s headline feature. iQOO claims up to 40 hours of video playback, 15.4 hours of gaming and 13.9 days of standby time on a single charge. A 44W FlashCharge charger lets the phone, according to iQOO, go from 1% to 50% in 43 minutes and from 1% to 100% in 91 minutes. The device also supports bypass charging, which routes power directly to the phone during use instead of through the battery, reducing heat buildup.
The Z11xa has a 6.76-inch FHD+ LCD display with a 2344 x 1080-pixel resolution and up to 120Hz refresh rate. Peak brightness reaches 1200 nits in High Brightness Mode.
On the back, the Z11xa pairs a 50MP Sony IMX852 main sensor with a 2MP bokeh camera. The front camera is 32MP, great for selfies and video calls. Both the front and rear cameras support 4K recording at 30fps with electronic image stabilisation. iQOO also added a Smart Imaging Assistant with AI Erase, AI UHD and Ultra HD Document tools. Other features include Dual-View Video, 4K-to-Live-Photo conversion, Live Photo, Underwater Photography mode and video frame cropping.
The Z11xa has IP68 and IP69 ratings, so it resists dust, splashes, and high-pressure water jets. The company describes the build as military-grade for added structural strength.
The phone runs OriginOS 6 based on Android 16. iQOO committed to 2 years of OS upgrades and 4 years of security updates. OriginOS 6 also adds AI features like Circle to Search, AI Captions for real-time transcription and translation, and AI Creation for summarising or refining text.
