The Indian smartphone gaming market has evolved to a great extent in the past few years. What started with a game or two and no dedicated phones is now a market of 100s of game titles and phones specifically designed for gaming. One such manufacturer that has taken gaming seriously since the beginning is iQOO. The BBK Electronics subsidiary started producing games-focused devices and as of now holds a major chunk of market share. 

 

Not only the production of devices, but iQOO has also focused on taking the esports culture seriously and organizing multiple events and tournaments all around the globe. And this time, the brand is taking a giant leap by partnering with Indian gamers like Scout, Mortal, PayalGaming, and more. 

 

And this is not just the old-school brand endorsement kind of partnership. Instead, the gamers will be contributing to the development of the gaming devices by the company to improve the user experience. This will not only help iQOO get real-time feedback but also understand the perspective of gamers closely along with the creation of new gaming devices based on the data. 

This is just the tip of the iceberg as iQOO has a lot of plans to make smartphone gaming as serious as it could. And this will also give birth to a new sentiment like 'by the gamers for the gamers' keeping in mind that top Indian gamers will be providing feedback on which iQOO will work. 

 

In the past few years, the mentioned gamers have established their names as some of the best in the country. Moreover, they have earned a lot in terms of finances through gaming as well. However, gaming is not a mainstream career option in India due to a lot of social challenges associated with it. However, with the pace things are moving forward, we can see more gaming creators in the country in the near future with which our participation in international esports events will also increase.
