iQOO 11S — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

The iQOO 11S, launched in China in July 2023, is the mid-cycle refresh of the iQOO 11 series: it keeps the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and 2K 144Hz display, but upgrades charging to 200W, adds up to 1TB of storage, and borrows the 11 Pro's IMX866 main camera. It was sold only in China, so Pakistani units are imported or used. This guide covers its verified specifications and the import-only buying reality.

Design and Build Quality

The 11S refines the 11-series look with a curved rear panel and three colourways, including the Sky Blue "Listening to the Tide" finish and the BMW M Legendary Edition. The rectangular camera island carries over the series design language. Build quality is flagship-grade with an aviation-grade aluminium middle frame, though like the rest of the series there is no official IP rating.

Display Features

The 6.78-inch Samsung E6 AMOLED panel runs at 1440 x 3200 with LTPO4 adaptive refresh up to 144Hz, HDR10+, over a billion colours, 1800 nits peak brightness, and 1440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming — the last being genuinely useful for users sensitive to screen flicker at low brightness. An independent display chip assists with motion clarity. It is one of the finest displays on any 2023 phone, curved at the edges.

Processor and Performance

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 returns, cooled by a 4,013mm² vapour chamber and graphite layers with 12 temperature sensors monitoring heat in real time. Vivo's V2 chip handles imaging and gaming frame enhancement. Performance remains flagship-class in 2026 — this combination still outpaces most mid-range chips and delivers sustained gaming performance that few phones at its used-market price can match.

RAM and Storage

The 11S starts at 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM (no 8GB option) and scales to 16GB, with 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage — the 1TB option being unique to this model in the 11 series. For users who carry huge game libraries or shoot lots of video, the 16GB/1TB configuration is the one to hunt for on the used market. No microSD slot.

Camera Features

The camera system blends the best of the 11 series: the 50MP Sony VCS IMX866 main sensor with OIS from the 11 Pro (the night-photography upgrade), paired with the standard 11's 8MP ultra-wide and 13MP 2x telephoto. The V2 imaging chip assists processing. Daylight shots are excellent; night shots benefit from the IMX866's larger effective light gathering. The 16MP front camera is standard fare. Honest note: the 8MP ultra-wide is the weakest link — fine in daylight, soft after dark.

Battery and Charging

The headline upgrade over the standard iQOO 11: 200W flash charging fills the 4,700mAh battery in about 10 minutes, with the charger supporting 65W PD/PPS for laptops and other devices. Real-world endurance is a full day of heavy use. Unlike the 11 Pro, there is no wireless charging on the 11S — a deliberate cost/feature trade. Verify the original 200W brick comes with any used unit.

Software and Updates

Chinese units run OriginOS 3 on Android 13. As a China-only model, it is past its prime update window — check the actual Android version on any used unit and do not expect current security patches. OriginOS includes iQOO's full gaming suite and V2-powered camera features, but imported units carry Chinese-region services. If modern software support matters, choose a globally supported flagship instead.

Connectivity and Additional Features

Dual Nano-SIM with 5G, Wi-Fi 7 (a notable upgrade — rare on 2023 phones), Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, IR blaster, USB-C, in-display fingerprint reader, stereo speakers with Hi-Fi audio tuning, and an X-axis linear motor for precise haptics. Wi-Fi 7 future-proofs the phone for next-generation routers, though few Pakistani homes have them yet.

Variants, Colours and Availability

Verified variants: 12GB + 256GB, 16GB + 256GB, 16GB + 512GB, and 16GB + 1TB. Colours: Sky Blue, Track (black), and Legendary Edition (BMW M). Launched in China in July 2023 from CNY 3,799 (historical reference only). It never launched in India, Pakistan, or globally — all Pakistani units are imports or used. Position in the family: the 11S takes the 11 Pro's main camera and 200W charging but drops wireless charging, while adding Wi-Fi 7 and a 1TB option.

Price in Pakistan and PTA Information

There is no official Pakistan price for the iQOO 11S — it never launched here, and all units are imported or used. Check the iQOO 11S product page at Zohaan Mobile Gallery or WhatsApp us at +92 305 8452080 for the current used-market price.

PTA: PTA approval is per-device and IMEI, never per model. Before paying for any imported iQOO 11S, send its IMEI to 8484 and confirm "Compliant" status — non-compliant imports need PTA tax registration for full network use. How to check PTA approval · How to buy a used mobile safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the iQOO 11S available in Pakistan?

Not officially. It launched in China only; all Pakistani units are imported or used.

What is the price of iQOO 11S in Pakistan?

No official price exists. Used/import prices vary — ask Zohaan Mobile Gallery on WhatsApp at +92 305 8452080 for the current price.

What is the difference between iQOO 11S and iQOO 11?

The 11S upgrades charging from 120W to 200W, swaps the GN5 main camera for the IMX866, adds Wi-Fi 7 and up to 1TB storage — but drops nothing else; it lacks the 11 Pro's wireless charging.

Does the iQOO 11S support wireless charging?

No. Despite 200W wired charging, wireless charging was not included on the 11S.

What is Wi-Fi 7 and does it matter?

Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) is the next-generation wireless standard with higher speeds and lower latency. It future-proofs the phone, though you need a Wi-Fi 7 router to benefit.

Does the iQOO 11S support 5G?

Yes — dual SIM with 5G support, subject to carrier band compatibility.

How fast does it charge?

200W flash charging — about 10 minutes for a full charge with the original charger.

Is the iQOO 11S PTA approved in Pakistan?

PTA status is per-device. Verify the specific unit's IMEI by SMS to 8484 before purchase.

Final Verdict

The iQOO 11S is the sweet spot of the 11 series for spec hunters: the Pro's IMX866 camera, 200W charging, up to 1TB storage, and Wi-Fi 7 — minus the Pro's wireless charging. As a China-only import in Pakistan, it suits enthusiasts who prioritise hardware over warranty and software support. Verify PTA compliance, insist on the original charger, and it remains one of the most capable used flagships you can buy.
