  • Display: The iQOO Z9x could sport a 6.72-inch 120Hz LCD screen while the other two phones could have a 6.78-inch 144Hz AMOLED panel. 
  • Cameras: The iQOO Z9 and Z9x could flaunt a 50MP primary sensor and 2MP portrait lenses. The Turbo model could have an 8MP ultrawide snapper as the secondary sensor instead of the portrait lens. While the iQOO Z9x has an 8MP selfie shooter, the regular iQOO Z9 and the Turbo variant have a 16MP selfie taker.

  • Processor: Under the hood, the iQOO Z9x could carry a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 SoC, the Z9 could have a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC, and the Z9 Turbo could ship with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3
  • Memory: The iQOO Z9x and the vanilla Z9 could feature LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 2.2 storage, but the Turbo could have a faster LPDDR5X RAM plus UFS 4.0 ROM combination.
  • Battery: While all three phones could rely on a massive 6,000mAh cell, the charging speed could be faster on iQOO Z9 and iQOO Z9 Turbo at 80 watts. The iQOO Z9x could only have 40W charging speed.
  • Software: All three iQOO smartphones could have Android 14-based OriginOS 4 skin. 
  • Design: Out of the three, the iQOO Z9x could be a few grams heavier at 199g (versus the 195g weight of the other two). They are all said to have plastic backs.
  • Miscellaneous: The iQOO Z9x could differ from the other two in terms of the biometric solution. It could come with a side-mounted fingerprint reader while the Z9 and the Z9 Turbo could have an in-screen fingerprint scanner. Also, it could have a 3.5mm audio jack which the two don’t seem to have. However, it could miss out on an IR blaster and NFC which the Z9 and Z9 Turbo could have.
