An official post reveals IQOO 3 to sport UFS 3.1 storage

It comes with three new key improvements which include Write Booster to amplify write speeds, DeepSleep technology that uses a low power state by sharing the UFS voltage regulators with other functions, and Performance Throttling Notification to notify the device when the storage performance is being throttled due to temperature.
