If you’ve been waiting for a flagship phone that looks genuinely different from everything else out there — the iQOO 15 Apex variant might be exactly what you should be looking at.
iQOO has launched a new edition of its flagship smartphone iQOO 15 in India. The company has named it the Apex variant, which stands out from the other variants in terms of design. The iQOO 15 was originally launched last November, and now this new iQOO 15 Apex variant seems to be making a strong push to bring the phone back into the conversation. This model claims to stand apart from other flagship phones primarily because of its unique design.
Cloud Design: How Different Is Apex from Legend and Alpha?
The iQOO 15 Apex variant was first introduced at the time of the China launch and has now been made available in India as well. The design of this variant is said to be inspired by a cloud pattern, where the phone’s color appears to shift when viewed from different angles.
This iQOO 15 design clearly sets it apart from the Legend (white) and Alpha (black) variants. If you want your phone to turn heads in public — this variant was made for exactly that.

FAQ — Most Asked Questions About iQOO 15 Apex
What is the actual price of the iQOO 15 Apex after the discount?
The base variant (12GB+256GB) is priced at ₹72,999, but after the flat ₹6,000 discount on select bank cards, the effective price comes down to ₹66,999. On top of that, you also get iQOO TWS earbuds worth ₹1,899 for free. So the real benefit adds up to roughly ₹7,900. Keep in mind, bank offers are time-limited — make the most of the pre-booking window while it lasts.
What is the difference between iQOO 15 and iQOO 15 Apex?
Specifications, processor, battery, and camera — everything is exactly the same. The only difference is the design. The Apex variant features a cloud-inspired back panel that shifts color depending on the viewing angle, while the Legend and Alpha variants don’t have this effect. If performance is all you care about, all three are identical — but if style matters to you, Apex wins.
How long does the iQOO 15 Apex battery last on a single charge?
With a large 7000mAh battery, the phone can comfortably last a day and a half to two days under normal usage. With heavy gaming or 4K video recording, it holds up for around 8 to 10 hours. The 100W wired charging fills it back up in roughly 35 to 40 minutes — so even if the battery runs out, you won’t be waiting long.
Is the iQOO 15 Apex waterproof?
Yes, it carries both IP68 and IP69 ratings. IP68 means protection against water up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. IP69 goes further — it can handle high-pressure water jets as well. Everyday rain, wet hands, or use near a pool — this phone is ready for all of it. Just don’t plan on taking it deep-sea diving.
Where to buy iQOO 15 Apex — Amazon or iQOO’s website?
It’ll be available on both — Amazon.in, iQOO’s official website, Reliance Digital, and vivo exclusive stores. For bank offers, Amazon is often the better bet since it tends to have more EMI and cashback options. The official website sometimes bundles exclusive accessories. The sale starts simultaneously on both platforms on April 6 at 12 noon.
