![Dhruv Joshi]()
Verdict
The iQOO Z9x is an ideal performance-focused smartphone for users on a budget. In addition to its impressive performance, it features a massive 6,000mAh battery that easily lasts an entire day, even for power users. The smartphone also offers a bright display and a good stereo speaker setup that elevates the multimedia experience. The cameras, however, may not meet everyone's expectations.
Pros
- Bright display
- Good performance
- Impressive battery life
Cons
- Cameras could be better
- Third-party apps
Design & display

When it comes to design, the iQOO Z9x does not stray too far off from the standard Z9. They both look nearly identical, with a similar camera island design. The smartphone is available in two colour options: Tornado Green and Storm Grey.We received the Tornado Green variant, which comes with these brush strokes across the real panel that glimmer under light. The camera island and the chrome edges have a green hue to match the rear panel, creating a sleek, harmonious design. The matte finish of the rear panel does an excellent job of mitigating smudges and fingerprints. At the bottom, you can find the endangered 3.5mm headphone jack, the Type-C port and a speaker grille. You can find the volume and power buttons along the right edge, while the SIM tray is on the left side. The power button also doubles as a fingerprint sensor, and it's swift and accurate. The smartphone also comes with IP64 water and dust resistance, which is uncommon at this price bracket and safeguards it against dust and offers protection against water splashes. The iQOO Z9x sports a 6.72-inch LCD display with FHD+ (2,408 x 1,080p) resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness level of 1000 nits. The viewing experience on the device is satisfactory given the price segment, and the display is sufficiently bright, even in extremely bright surroundings. The visual experience is elevated with the stereo speaker setup, which can get extremely loud.

The iQOO Z9x comes with a 50MP primary sensor paired with a 2MP bokeh sensor. At the front, there's an 8MP camera for selfies and video calls. The camera shines in daylight photography, where the images are detailed and the colour reproduction is quite appealing.The dynamic range is good, though HDR mode can sometimes overexpose the images. In low light, the camera manages to take acceptable images in night mode, though it is best to tame your expectations. The selfie camera takes acceptable images in daylight, although it tends to smoothen out the facial details. In low light, you might need a few tries to capture something satisfactory.
