What is the "Highlights" Feature?

The iQOO 15's "Highlights" feature is a dedicated tool within the Ultra Game Mode that continuously buffers your gameplay in the background. Think of it as a short-term memory for your gaming.


When something amazing occurs, you can instantly retrieve and save the last 15 or 30 seconds of your gameplay to your gallery. No more "trust me, bro" stories – you'll have the undeniable video proof!


This is a godsend for mobile gamers who want to:

  • Show off to friends: Instantly share those incredible headshots, multi-kills, or strategic plays.
  • Create social media content: Easily capture shareable clips for YouTube Shorts, or Instagram Reels.
  • Analyze gameplay: Review your best (or worst) moments to learn and improve.
  • Preserve memories: Keep a digital scrapbook of your most exciting gaming achievements.

How to Master "Highlights" on Your iQOO 15: A Step-by-Step Guide

Getting started with the "Highlights" feature is incredibly simple. Here's a step-by-step guide to ensure you never miss another epic moment:

First things first, fire up your faorite, graphically intensive game. Whether it's the fast-paced action of BGMI, the stunning open world of Genshin Impact, or the competitive intensity of COD Mobile, the iQOO 15's powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor ensures smooth gameplay while the "Highlights" engine works its magic in the background.

Step 2: Access Ultra Game Mode 🛠️

Tap on the 'Switch' icon to activate it.

You can choose if you want video clips or live photos.

As soon as it's enabled, the iQOO 15 begins its "rolling buffer" process. Don't worry, this isn't actively saving large files; it's simply keeping the most recent seconds of your gameplay in temporary memory, ready to be pulled at a moment's notice.

Step 6: Customize the Duration ⏱️

Within the 'Highlights' settings, you'll find an option to select the clip duration. You can typically choose between a 15-second or 30-second recording. Opt for the 30-second option if you want to capture more of the context and buildup to your legendary play, or stick with 15 sconds for just the crucial moment.

Step 7: Play Your Heart Out 🕹

Now that the feature is set up, close the sidebar and dive back into your game with full focus. You don't need to be concerned about the feature impacting your device's performance or filling up your storage. The iQOO 15's dedicated Q3 Supercomputing chip is designed to handle such background processes seamlessly, ensuring your Frame Rate Per Second (FPS) remains consistently high.

Step 8: The "Tap" Moment 🎯

Step 9: Quick Edit & Review 🎬
