iQOO recently held a technical communication session for the iQOO 16 and iQOO Pad Ultra focused on esports performance.

Since its founding, iQOO's goal has remained consistent: to become the preferred brand for users seeking the ultimate esports and gaming experience, while continuously pushing the industry's upper limits in visual effects, controls, and performance.

Leveraging three major technology foundations—graphics, controls, and tuning—and expanding into two experience scenarios, cross-platform gaming and game livestreaming, iQOO has built a "3+2 gaming technology blueprint," transforming technology into gaming visuals and experiences that surpass Pro Max levels.

Game graphics have always been one of iQOO's core technology directions.

On its new generation of products, iQOO introduces the new self-developed esports chip Q4, based on an all-new tri-core architecture and the QNSS super rendering engine.

It becomes the industry's only "discrete graphics card" supporting the trifecta of full-scenario ray tracing plus game super-resolution plus game super-frame rate, further delivering four major gaming visual experience upgrades.

Full-scenario ray tracing technology has been upgraded again, with iQOO introducing console-exclusive "virtual point light source technology" to mobile for the first time, and it can also be layered with HDR.

The 8K game camera not only provides ultra-clear screenshots but also preserves ray tracing, filters, and super-resolution effects, while integrating game photography, dynamic photo capture, intelligent highlight recording, and video replay into one.

iQOO has also pre-researched a Mobile Lumen real-time ray tracing demo, attempting to bring the Lumen lighting solution to mobile.

On super-resolution visuals, based on the self-developed esports chip Q4, the QNSS super rendering engine collaborates deeply at the game engine level.

Eleven popular mobile games have built-in super-resolution and super-frame rate switches, and true 2K native super-resolution now covers 13 popular mobile games.

In terms of controls, iQOO brings PC control optimization technology to mobile, debuting the industry-first Q-flex control technology.

In 165Hz high-frame-rate scenarios, the latency benefit of enabling ultra-sensory touch exceeds 28% in both on and off states.

For tuning, iQOO introduces the new generation Monster super-core engine, featuring the industry-first super-core self-developed scheduler.

Combined with the super-core lightning accelerator, super-core energy efficiency controller, and Monster mode, it unleashes chip performance, delivering more stable frame rates and lower power consumption in high-load scenarios.

In expanding cross-platform gaming, iQOO has developed its own PC game emulator, putting the Steam game library into players' pockets, supporting virtual controllers, external controllers, and offline play.

When connected to a large screen, it switches to a dedicated gaming space.

Currently, iQOO's self-developed PC game emulator supports nearly a hundred PC games, and iQOO's self-developed large-screen mode covers more than 20 popular mobile games.

On the livestreaming front, iQOO spent three years visiting over a hundred streamers, upgrading the livestreaming experience into a complete workflow covering pre-broadcast, during broadcast, and post-broadcast.

iQOO has also partnered with Douyin for technical collaboration for the third consecutive year, jointly optimizing livestreaming audio experience in single-phone livestreaming scenarios this year.

Additionally, iQOO's first flagship esports arena officially opened on September 28 in Nanjing.

On the opening day, iQOO esports partner JDG team will be present for the unveiling ceremony.

On September 29, the iQOO 16 and iQOO Pad Ultra will be officially released, with the ultra Pro Max gaming visuals and controls fully showcased on the products.
