80% iQOO Z10x Review: A Big Battery Budget Smartphone
Source: NDTV Gadgets EN→zh-CN
After spending time with the iQOO Z10x, it's clear that the brand has not cut any corners for its new Z series smartphone. iQOO has attempted to fix the flaws of the previous model but came up short of the competition in some areas. There is a silver lining to iQOO's efforts to stand out (bigger battery delivers better standby), but it could have focused its efforts on better-optimised software and a better set of cameras, even if it just delivers the basics. Poco's M7 Pro (Review) may not offer the best performance in its segment, but it gets you an AMOLED panel with deep blacks that many will appreciate and an OIS-stabilised camera that will get you sharper photos. It's still the phone to beat in this segment, with prices starting from as low as Rs. 13,700 for the base 6GB RAM variant. CMF's Phone 1 (Review), apart from its Super AMOLED display and slightly better cameras (compared to the Z10x), also offers something exciting with its modular approach for the DIY crowd at this price point.

80% iQOO Z10X review: for gamers on a budget

While the iQOO Z10X shares similarities with the Vivo T4X, it’s undoubtedly one of the best options for productivity-focused and gaming lovers at just Rs 13,499. iQOO is also offering several deals on its official channels, effectively reducing the price by around Rs 1,500 – a terrific deal if you’re eyeing the higher 8GB RAM or 256GB storage variants. It’s equally worth considering if battery life and 5G support matter to you. That said, the next iteration could benefit from improvements in the display quality and fewer pre-installed apps to better stand out against rivals like Motorola and CMF. If those aren’t dealbreakers, the iQOO Z10X, powered by the Dimensity 7300 SoC, is sure to impress BGMI and Call of Duty enthusiasts.

The entry-level smartphone segment has been an exciting and competitive space in the smartphone industry. It’s good to see brands consistently pushing the envelope, delivering refined upgrades in design, display, camera, connectivity and features, compared to the devices launched a few years back. Amid an ongoing wave of smartphone launches, iQOO has thrown its hat in the ring with the Z10x, a budget 5G device aimed at users who demand more without breaking the bank. The iQOO Z10x is claimed to be a reasonable upgrade over the Z9x (review), owing to battery improvements, an optimised Dimensity 7300 chipset and UFS 3.1 storage.

With many upgrades, we are expecting the iQOO Z10x to perform better in some areas compared to the iQOO Z9x we tested last year. We are not too confident about its camera prowess, which remains the same as before. Hopefully, iQOO has taken care of the annoying spammy notifications we experienced on the iQOO Z9x this time. If you are looking for a big battery budget smartphone that won't break the bank, the iQOO Z10x might just be the right phone. But we recommend waiting for our detailed review before you pick one.
