The iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro are expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip. The iQOO 12 lineup may go official in December.
The Vivo X100 Pro+ and Vivo X Fold 3 are likely to debut together in the first quarter of 2024. The X-series flagship phone is expected to be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset.

It is unclear whether the X Fold 3 will have the same chip onboard.
