iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition Launched: How Does It Compare To The Regular Flagship; Differences Explained

About four months after the regular iQoo 12 launched, the Vivo sub-brand launched the iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition. The brand confirmed the smartphone’s existence on March 28, 2024, through a heartfelt message from CEO Nipun Marya to its supporters. Now, the smartphone is available in the country in a new special-edition finish. Here’s what’s new with the iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition.

iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition Is Available In Desert Red

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered flagship is now available in a Desert Red finish. Instead of the glass back on regular versions, the iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition has a vegan leather back panel, which adds grip and makes the smartphone easier to hold. The material also adds a premium touch to the handset.

However, that is the only difference between the Anniversary Edition and the regular iQoo 12. All the other specifications, such as the 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED screen with 3,000 nits peak brightness, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, a 5,000 mAh battery that supports 120W fast charging, and a 50MP Omnivision primary sensor remain the same across all the models.

iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition Price And Availibility

The Anniversary Edition of the flagship is available at Rs. 52,999 for the variant with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The upper variant, with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, is available for Rs. 57,999. This is the same price as the other models that are already on sale in the country, which is a good thing, considering that the company didn’t increase the cost for a premium finish.

This model will be available in the country starting April 9, 2024. Interested buyers can purchase it via Amazon and the company’s official website.

iQoo 12 Anniversary Edition Discount And Offers

Those with an ICICI or HDFC Bank card can avail of a Rs. 3,000 instant discount on the new iQoo 12. This reduces the handset’s effective price to Rs. 49,999 and Rs. 54,999, respectively. In addition to the discount, the company is also offering up to nine-month no-cost EMI on the handset.
