iQOO Z10 Lite is coming, might be the vivo T4 Lite’s twin

iQOO’s ever-expanding Z10 family just added the Z10 Turbo and Z10 Turbo Pro last month, but another member is on the way as well – the Z10 Lite. This has been certified by the Bluetooth SIG, and also listed in the Google Play Supported Devices database.

Thus, its name is confirmed, as is its model number – I2409. While no specs for it have been outed so far, it’s likely that it will slot underneath the Z10x in iQOO’s portfolio. Rumor also has it that the vivo T4 Lite and the iQOO Z10 Lite will be identical devices with different names.

That wouldn’t be surprising at all seeing as how last year, the iQOO Z9 Lite and the vivo T3 Lite were the same device too. Presumably, the Z10 Lite and T4 Lite will be launched in different markets, but that’s not always a given – sometimes these rebrands end up competing against each other just to make things extra confusing.

Here’s where the plot thickens. The Z10 Lite and T4 Lite allegedly have the same firmware files as the vivo Y19 and Y29s, which implies that the Z10 Lite and T4 Lite will be similar to these. The Y19 and Y29s are identical save for the latter having a 50 MP main camera instead of 13 MP.

So, with all of this in mind, we wouldn’t be shocked if the iQOO Z10 Lite and vivo T4 Lite end up also sporting a 6.74-inch LCD screen with 720×1600 resolution, 90 Hz refresh rate and 570-nit brightness, the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC, 4/6/8GB of RAM, 64/128/256GB of expandable storage, a 5 MP selfie camera, and a 5,500 mAh battery with support for 15W wired charging.
