It should go without saying that everyone is looking for a reliable and accessible smartphone in this day and age. However, in its ever-evolving landscape, you would be hard-pressed to find the right device that matches your tastes. Fortunately, there is the new iQOO Z9, which is an excellent choice for those seeking a safe and affordable handset with reliable performance.
Powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, iQOO’s latest Z-series smartphones can keep up with even the most demanding of processes. And with a specially designed chassis, not only are these devices the perfect companion for day-to-day use, they are both stylish and practical as well.
Flagship-Style Design & Durability
Despite being mid-range offerings, the designs of the iQOO Z9 series could easily pass off as flagship-level devices. With a thickness of 7.98mm, both are as lightweight as they are thin, giving you a firm and comfortable grip. Though they are unlikely to slip out of your hand, both devices feature an anti-drop cushioning structure that makes them more resistant to slips and drops. The iQOO Z9 duo can also shrug off the occasional dunks in waters, as they are rated to have IP54 and IP64 dust and water resistance, respectively.
This robust design further extends to the devices’ powerful camera array, featuring an exclusive yet unique “porthole” rear camera array that houses their 50MP primary shooters. Further adding to their sense of elegance is a glossy glass finish or a radiant sunburst texture, depending on the phone’s model.
Unbeatable Cooling & Performance
The iQOO Z9 and its sibling phone, the iQOO Z9x 5G, are powerhouse devices in their own respect. As mentioned earlier, under the hood is a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, allowing you to game lag-free for hours on end. Choose between the iQOO Z9x 5G, which features the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset for a high and stable frame rate with low power consumption; or the iQOO Z9, which features the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, the chipset that can take on even the most graphically demanding games.
You never have to worry about overheating while gaming, either, as the iQOO Z9 specifically comes packaged with the flagship 6k VC liquid cooling system. This 6043mm² vapour chamber helps ensure optimal performance during intense usage, such as gaming or running demanding applications. This system helps prevent overheating and throttling, keeping your phone running smoothly even under pressure.
Long-lasting Battery
Needing to charge your phone on the go or in an intense gaming session is quite the hassle, especially if the charger is nowhere in sight. However, with the iQOO Z9, you’ll no longer have to be pinned to an outlet just to get the most out of your device. Equipped with a 6,000mAh battery, you can enjoy round after round of your favourite game without any pause.
And when it’s finally time to plug in, both the iQOO Z9 and iQOO Z9x 5G are equipped with 80W and 44W FlashCharge support, respectively, which can top-up full capacity in just under two hours. Furthermore, this battery is touted by iQOO to be durable, promising to maintain an 80% battery life even after four years of use.
Vibrant Yet Safe Display
We all know the feeling of wanting to go to sleep early, but we just can’t put our phones down. In addition to the other user experiences, the iQOO Z9 and the iQOO Z9x 5G also comes with a feature that will make your eyes feel less fatigued. Not only are they equipped with 144Hz and 120Hz displays, respectively, they also come with unique dimming features that help shield your eyes from fatigue and harmful blue light.
More specifically, the iQOO Z9x 5G comes with DC Dimming that creates a flicker-free display that protects your eyes. On the other hand, the iQOO Z9 has 3840 Ultra-High PWM Dimming, which is perfect for its 1.5k resolution display.
Affordable Pricing
Without a doubt, both of iQOO’s latest smartphones are mid-rangers that exceed expectations. The iQOO Z9 costs RM1,333, while the iQOO Z9x 5G comes in 128GB and 256GB configurations for RM879 and RM1,047, respectively. The duo is available in black and green colorways and can be purchased through iQOO’s official linktree. For more information, kindly visit iQOO’s official website.
