Custom Performance Monster: iQOO × Qualcomm Joint-Tuned Snapdragon® 8 Elite

iQOO 13 is a breakthrough in smartphone performance, powered by the Snapdragon® 8 Elite chip with Qualcomm’s self-developed Oryon architecture. This processor’s 2+6 all-big-core configuration and industry-leading peak frequency of 4.32 GHz enable seamless multitasking, outstanding responsiveness, and an unprecedented processing experience. This capability is further enhanced by a massive 24 MB L2 cache, allowing for efficient handling of even the most demanding applications.

On the graphics side, the Snapdragon® 8 Elite’s GPU features a new slice architecture significantly improving multitasking, concurrent performance, and power efficiency to enable intensive graphics rendering while optimizing battery life. Together with Samsung’s LPDDR5X Ultra memory, which increases read speeds, and UFS 4.1 storage(1) technology, iQOO 13 forms a powerful performance “iron triangle” of CPU, memory, and storage that sets a new standard for mobile phones.

In addition, the collaboration between iQOO and Qualcomm has enhanced the device with features such as GMEM (Graphics Memory) for optimized memory management, an open MPAM interface for efficient resource prioritization, and technologies like AFME 2.0 and Hardware-based Ray Tracing for improved visual clarity and performance. The Snapdragon® 8 Elite also delivers advanced AI capabilities that increase NPU inference speed and reduce power consumption, providing users with a refined, highly efficient AI experience. These combined enhancements, along with iQOO and Qualcomm’s joint tuning and engineering efforts, position iQOO 13 as a powerhouse that pushes the boundaries of smartphone performance.

Total Immersion: Unparalleled Gaming Experience

iQOO 13 is not only a powerhouse in terms of performance, but will also wow gamers with its dual-chip setup. Alongside the Snapdragon® 8 Elite, iQOO’s Supercomputing Chip Q2 unleashes a whole new level of immersion. Supporting up to 2K (PC-grade) game super resolution and 144 fps super frame rate, this advanced chip drives exceptional visuals and ensures smooth, uninterrupted graphics, even during intense gaming. By balancing power and performance, the Q2 chip allows iQOO 13 to handle the most demanding games with ease, giving gamers the confidence that the phone will perform under all conditions.

iQOO 13’s 8T LTPO display boasts a 2K (3168 × 1440) resolution and a 144 Hz refresh rate. This combination delivers incredibly clear and fluid graphics, so every detail is rendered with precision and every touch is ultra-responsive. The adaptive refresh rate dynamically adjusts to match content needs, reducing battery consumption during extended gaming sessions. With a peak brightness of 4500 nits, the display provides crystal-clear visuals even in bright outdoor conditions, making it ideal for gaming anywhere, anytime.

To further enhance responsiveness, iQOO 13 incorporates Ultra-low Latency Frame Interpolation and High-Fidelity Frame Interpolation, which minimize latency for fast, accurate responses. Frame synchronization algorithms work alongside to streamline rendering, compositing, and display times, so that each frame appears instantly and accurately – giving players a competitive edge with smoother gameplay and faster aim. Adding to the immersive experience, iQOO 13 features an Ultra-Wide Vibration Motor and Symmetrical Drum Master Speakers, which enhance situational awareness and fully immerse players in games. Altogether, these innovations make the Q2 chip-powered iQOO 13 the ultimate choice for gaming enthusiasts seeking a seamless, high-performance experience.

Eye-Protective Display for a Healthier Viewing Experience

Setting a new standard in eye protection, iQOO 13 is one of the first to feature OLED Circular Polarization Technology, backed by certifications from TÜV Rheinland and vivo Visual Health Labs. This advanced screen employs 2592 Hz PWM Dimming to minimize flicker and reduce eye fatigue, making it easier on the eyes during extended use. Designed in partnership with BOE, the spacious 6.82-inch flat screen is wear-, scratch-, and dust-resistant, ensuring longevity while maintaining optimal performance over time. With its industry-leading display and cutting-edge eye-protection technology, iQOO 13’s screen represents a milestone in iQOO’s display advancements, offering users comfort, clarity, and precision like never before.

Unstoppable Power That Keeps You Going

Built with industry-leading third-generation silicon, the battery’s energy density has increased by an astounding 8.7% over iQOO 12, providing even more power in the same compact form. The battery is supported by a robust 7000 mm² vapor chamber, with increased maximum cooling capacity, improving heat dissipation efficiency across the surface area by 17%.

For users who demand speed, iQOO 13 delivers with its 120W FlashCharge technology, offering ultra-fast charging that minimizes downtime and keeps you going through gaming, streaming, and multitasking without interruption. With its cutting-edge battery technology, fast charging capabilities, and ultra-slim design, iQOO 13 is built to support the most intense, high-performance demands—keeping users powered up and ready for anything.

Inspired by the Track, Built to Perform

Inspired by the five-year partnership with BMW M Motorsport and the spirit of racing, iQOO 13 comes in three stunning editions: Legend (white), Alpha (black), and Nardo Grey, each crafted to embody the speed and passion that drives racers to shatter performance records. The Legend edition showcases an iconic tri-color pattern of red, black, and blue stripes, merging the essence of speed with cutting-edge technology. The Alpha edition showcases the bold matte finish of a racetrack, capturing the intensity of peak performance, while the Nardo Grey edition draws inspiration from Italy’s famed Nardò Ring, a preferred test track for the most elite performance race cars.

The device, which maintains a sleek 7.99 mm thick profile (Alpha edition only) and 8.1 mm thick profile (Legend and Nardo Grey editions), also includes an innovative Monster Halo on the back cover that creates a captivating halo, a breakthrough in design inspired by the world of auto racing. This dynamic light pulses rhythmically with music and some games, adding vitality to the device, while also keeping users informed with real-time notifications for calls, messages, and charging status. With iQOO 13, the thrill of racing and gaming comes alive in every detail.

Top-Tier Flagship Photography That Redefines Every Shot

iQOO 13 delivers a premium imaging experience by utilizing the same camera from vivo’s flagship devices and incorporating the same advanced sensor, algorithms, and features to bring iQOO 13 users to a new level of mobile photography. Equipped to capture sharp, high-definition quality across all focal lengths, iQOO 13 supports 0.6x, 1x, 2x, and 4x optical positions, with up to 30x zoom.

HONG KONG, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SOLOWIN HOLDINGS (Nasdaq: AXG) (“SOLOWIN,” the “Company,” or “we”), a leading financial technology firm bridging traditional and digital assets, today announced certain preliminary, unaudited financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. Driven by the rapid expansion of its digital asset tokenization, stablecoin infrastructure, and AI-powered services, the Company delivered exceptional top-line growth for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, as it advances its global framework compliance and institutional-grade service strategy.

The preliminary financial results described in this press release are unaudited and based on management’s current estimates of our results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. These figures are subject to the completion of our customary year-end financial closing procedures and audit by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. No assurance can be given that final audited results will not differ materially from these preliminary estimates, and any such differences could be significant. We expect to file our audited financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in our Annual Report on Form 20-F, which is expected to be filed in July 2026.

Overall Performance

Revenue increased nearly tenfold year over year to between $27 million and $29 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026.

Net loss was in the range of $11 million to $13 million, reflecting continued investment in technology, compliance, and global business expansion.

Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2026, cash and cash equivalents increased to between $14 million and $16 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was in the range of $12 million to $14 million for the year ended March 31, 2026. The increase in receivables from customers was the primary driver of the cash used in operating activities during the current period.

Net cash provided by investing activities was in the range of $1 million to $3 million for the year ended March 31, 2026, mainly consisting of cash and bank balances arising from acquisition of subsidiaries, partly offset by purchases of short-term investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased to between $18 million and $20 million for the year ended March 31, 2026, mainly representing the proceeds from capital injections from investors.

Strategic Overview

Against a backdrop of accelerating institutional adoption, maturing global regulation, and deepening integration of AI and blockchain, SOLOWIN has further consolidated its position as a fully compliant, vertically integrated digital financial platform, with a clear dual-token strategy focused on Digital Asset Tokens and AI Tokens. The Company’s ecosystem spans stablecoin issuance and payments, asset tokenization, securities trading and asset management, as well as AI-powered services.

Management Commentary

Mr. Lok Ling Ngai, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of SOLOWIN, stated: “Fiscal 2026 marks a transformative year for SOLOWIN. Achieving tenfold revenue growth represents more than a financial milestone, it validates the strength of our dual-token strategy and underscores the accelerating global demand for compliant, institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure. We are uniquely positioned at the convergence of three structural shifts reshaping our industry: the advancement of regulatory frameworks, the rapid adoption of tokenization, and the integration of AI with blockchain technologies.”

“Guided by our mission ‘Mobilizing Tokens 24/7,’ we are building a secure, efficient, and fully regulated digital financial ecosystem. Over the past year, we have significantly strengthened and expanded our stablecoin and payment infrastructure, scaled our asset tokenization capabilities, and enhanced our AI-powered services.

As global regulatory frameworks continue to mature and institutional adoption accelerates, we remain steadfast in our commitment to compliance, transparency, and responsible innovation. Our goal is to deliver sustainable, long-term value for our clients, partners, and shareholders — and help to power the future of finance.”
