2025 Year-End Recap | My Journey with iQOO Connect
Whatsup everyone.
As 2025 comes to an end, this feels like the right moment to pause, reflect, and look back at a year filled with memories, learnings, challenges, and growth.
This thread is my complete year-end recap with iQOO Connect a journey built with passion, effort, and the support of an incredible community.
The year began with inspiration. After attending the iQOO 13 launch, the word Relentless stayed with me.That spark led to starting the year strong with Adventure with iQOO Connect in Chennai.
The response from Questers was overwhelming, and the energy at the event made it one of the best events I’ve organized this year.
Soon after came my first hosted event in Coimbatore with the iQOO Neo 10R Sneak Peek.
Hosting the event, engaging with Questers, and later conducting a Vox Pop that received great appreciation on Instagram was a proud moment. Coimbatore gave me memories I’ll always carry.
The iQOO Neo 10R launch was another standout.
A concept-driven smartphone launch combined with the Seedhe Maut rap showcase showed how strategy and storytelling can redefine product launches.
Spending that day with the iQOO team, Moderators ,Rangers, and Questers was truly special.
On a personal milestone, I bought my first iQOO flagship, the iQOO 13.
Then came Game On with iQOO Connect
an experimental initiative where online gaming led to a real-world battleground.
Recaps
The Jailbreak tournament, strong registrations, and positive response proved that new ideas work when the community supports them.
I also got the opportunity to conduct Vox Pop for the iQOO Z10 in Chennai by the iQOO PR Team,
Vox pop link allowing youngsters to experience the devices even before launch. Direct user interaction like this is something I truly enjoy.
iQOO Consumer Connect Chennai followed
two days of co-creation, feedback, research, and real conversations with users. Supporting the team with translations and coordination and working closely with them was a valuable experience.
Q1 brought a proud milestone Ranger of the Quarter 2025.
Being the first Ranger to receive this recognition was an honor and a reminder that consistency and commitment matter.
Next came the iQOO Community Cup
As Team South Zone XR, even though we couldn’t go all the way, the experience of teamwork and competing together strengthened our bond as South Rangers.
Organising frequent In-Depth Interviews (IDI) sessions with the iQOO product team across Tamil Nadu,
helping the brand connect closely with TN users to gather valuable feedback and suggestions for improving iQOO products and services.
The journey continued with multiple events,
the iQOO Neo 10 Sneak Peek in Madurai.
CyberQuest in Namma Chennai,
Delivered an immersive and wholesome experience for our Questers, surrounding them with vibrant neon lights and energizing the space with exciting, high-octane gaming activities.
Then came the highlight of the year IFM International Fan Meet 3.0 Phuket Edition.
Being selected, exploring Phuket, sharing feedback, presenting ideas, and spending nearly a week with the iQOO team and the community was unforgettable.
Gaming Thiruvizha Chennai x iQOO Team Tamilas
eSports event co-ordinated by iQOO Team Tamilas brought new learning, new people, and fresh energy.
July marked my second anniversary in the iQOO Connect community,
Two years of unstoppable Quest and the journey keeps going...
October marked both my birthday and the completion of one full year as an iQOO Ranger,
To mark the celebration, I organized another Ranger event with the iQOO Connect community in namma Chennai a high-energy Laser Arena experience where our Questers soaked in the thrill and vibes of laser gaming.
Staying consistent in a competitive space isn’t easy, but this journey has been worth every effort.
Festive Connect Bengaluru became my favorite part of the year
Seeing community feedback turn into real software improvements strengthened my belief in co-creation.
Began the journey as a nominee, rose as a winner, and now proudly serving as a jury for Best of the Year.
From being a nominee and winner in earlier years to now serving as a jury member for the same category and Ai Prodigy, the full-circle journey perfectly defines what iQOO Connect stands for.
The first-ever iQOO 15 photowalk in Chennai
was another unique initiative. One post from the photowalk reached close to 8 lakh views, proving the power of organic community-driven content.
iQOO 15 from the iQOO Connect community and creating content.
that reached the Top 3 reels on the iQOO Community Instagram with 3,56,000 plus views was a proud milestone. Guidance from the community lead pushed me to go beyond my comfort zone and i will keep doing such interesting contents.
Hosting the iQOO 15 Sneak Peek in Chennai,
I had the honor of hosting the iQOO Connect Chennai Sneak Peek, and it was an incredible experience. Grateful to the community team for trusting me with this opportunity and giving me the space to explore and grow as a host.
Attending the iQOO 15 launch and Annual Questers Meet in Delhi,
As a Rangers team, we were honored to receive the Above & Beyond Stars of the iQOO Connect Community 2025. It was truly a privilege to lift the cup together with my teammates and to be rewarded with the iQOO Neo 10 in recognition of my performance throughout the year.
A heartfelt thank you to iQOO Connect for acknowledging and appreciating our efforts. This recognition means a lot to us and motivates us to keep giving our best to the community.
Experiencing the iQOO factory visit
The factory visit was an eye-opening experience. Watching how each and every device goes through multiple levels of quality checks, step by step, really built a new level of trust.
No device reaches users without passing through detailed and time-intensive QC processes. Every product is thoroughly tested to ensure the best quality before it reaches our hands.
The year ended with the most meaningful event of all Quest for Kindness.
Visiting Bavishya Deepam, Chennai, during Christmas while representing iQOO Connect and the community reminded me how small acts of kindness can create lifelong impact. This was the most blessed event of my journey.
This was my 2025 — built with effort, patience, learning, mistakes, corrections, and growth.
