In the new generation of flagship machines that have been released so far, I personally feel that iQOO 9 Pro can be said to be the most innovative one, which not only has the powerful performance brought by the new generation of Snapdragon 8, but also brings a novel experience without me with 2K E5 screen, ultrasonic 3D wide-area fingerprint and other hardware. Today I will combine my own actual use of feelings to explain to you where the excellence of this mobile phone is reflected.
E5 material top hardware to create an industry ceiling-level screen
When I first got started with iQOO 9 Pro, I believe that many people will be attracted by the 2K E5 material OLED flexible curved screen on the front for the first time, not only because it has a very high screen ratio, but also because its display effect is very stunning.
The iQOO 9 Pro has a screen size of 6.78 inches, a resolution of 3200×1440, and a screen PPI of up to 517, which is a standard 2K high resolution screen. In daily use, this high-resolution screen can present a sharper graphic texture, even in the contrasting text reading interface, the edge of the text will not appear blurry, color cast problem, look more comfortable.
The iQOO 9 Pro's excellent screen is also due to the Samsung E5 luminous material. Thanks to the blessing of new materials and new processes, the iQOO 9 Pro manual maximum brightness reaches 500nit, local peak brightness reaches 1500nit, even if you use the phone outdoors at noon, the high brightness can also let you see what is displayed on the screen. In addition, the iQOO 9 Pro is also equipped with a color temperature sensor, which can adjust the screen color temperature according to the change of ambient light color temperature, no matter what environment it is in, the screen display is the most comfortable.
Specific display effect, iQOO 9 Pro screen supports 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut coverage and 10bit color depth, but also supports HDR display, in order to further ensure that the screen display color accuracy, each iQOO 9 Pro screen has undergone special color correction. Therefore, this screen has full advantages when viewing high-definition resources: the color effect presented by the picture is rich and natural, and the actors are vivid on the screen; HDR technology makes the contrast between light and dark obvious, and the delicate look and feel of the screen makes the actors seem to be presented in front of us.
Although the screen refresh rate of iQOO 9 Pro is as high as 120Hz, its power consumption is not very large, the key is that this screen has the latest LTPO stepless variable speed 2.0 technology, which can intelligently switch the refresh rate according to different use scenarios. Specifically, in the scene without touch and animation, the screen refresh rate will be reduced to 10Hz to achieve the purpose of power saving, and in the scene that requires high brushing such as games, the screen will fire at full speed to 120Hz to ensure the smooth display of the screen.
iQOO 9 Pro screen also has a very practical function, that is, it is equipped with ultrasonic 3D wide-area fingerprint, compared with the traditional optical fingerprint, ultrasonic 3D wide-area fingerprint not only has a larger recognition area, but also has a higher unlocking efficiency in scenarios such as wet hand unlocking. And the iQOO 9 Pro's fingerprint recognition area reaches 578mm, and the unlocking area is just in most of the area that the thumb can reach, which is very convenient when unlocking.
Performance Iron Triangle + Standalone Display Chip Pro High Frame Game Stress Free
As the flagship of the beginning of 2022, iQOO 9 Pro has a full stack of materials in the core configuration, it is equipped with Qualcomm's new generation Snapdragon 8 flagship chip, and is also equipped with the top storage hardware of Samsung Enhanced Edition LPDDR5 + Samsung Overclocking Edition UFS 3.1, which is the first echelon in today's Android camp in terms of performance.
The new generation of Snapdragon 8 adopts a 4nm process process, and has the latest ARM V9 underlying architecture, CPU performance, security, AI computing performance have been improved, and the new generation of Adreno GPU has significantly improved the graphics processing power of the chip. In the Antutu performance test software, the running score of iQOO 9 Pro can easily exceed one million and run out of 1023590 points. In the more professional Geekbench5, iQOO 9 Pro can also have single-core 1263, multi-core 3689 results, it can be said that this chip compared to the previous generation of Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 significantly improved.
Excellent storage performance for iQOO 9 Pro to bring a more extreme experience, the enhanced version of LPDDR5 running memory not only has a higher transfer rate, but also through the memory fusion 2.0 technology to further expand the memory, daily use of the background mounted applications reached more than twenty, and will not easily kill the background. The overclocked version of UFS 3.1 also has a very high transmission rate, which can be seen through AndroBench that the random read and write speed can reach more than 300MB/s, which is very efficient in transferring files and opening large games.
Now that mobile games have become a part of many people's lives, I will use a few common games to test the actual performance of the iQOO 9 Pro. The first is the popular "Glory of Kings", which is currently iQOO 9 Pro has supported the official 120 frame mode, and we have decisively chosen to turn it on.
After playing a game at room temperature, you can see from the PerfDog software that the frame rate of the whole process is basically maintained at about 120 frames, and there is rarely a frame drop in the game, the operation is very handy, and there is not much pressure during the team battle. It is worth mentioning that the game magic box of iQOO 9 Pro also prepares functions such as death playback and operation index analysis for the glory of the king, which can help players better improve the game level.
For Equally popular Peace Elite, I also tested it with the iQOO 9 Pro, pulling the picture quality full and turning on 90 frames to run. In the time of a game, thanks to the eighteen-layer waterfall VC stereoscopic heat dissipation system, the fuselage temperature control is good, which can ensure that the game runs stably for a long time at about 90 frames.
For games that don't natively have a high frame rate mode, iQOO 9 Pro's standalone display chip Pro comes in handy, helping games increase frame rates. Turn on the high-frame low-power mode in the "Original God" with very high hardware requirements, and the game will not only run stably at about 90 frames, but also the temperature control and power consumption of the fuselage will be better.
This is because after turning on this mode, the main chip GPU will reduce the number of frames to output only 45 frames of the picture, thereby reducing the pressure on the main chip, and the remaining 45 frames are rendered by the independent display chip Pro, and finally combined to achieve a 90 frames of the picture. PerfDog software can only detect the number of frames rendered by the main chip GPU at present, the actual number of frames needs to be multiplied by two, from the frame number graph can be seen that most of the time the number of frames are quite stable, it can be said that the current "Original God" experience of the best Android machine.
The new design of the panoramic porthole makes the flagship texture more intense
Since it is a flagship model, every aspect must be excellent, and the design is no exception. iQOO 9 Pro has inherited the previous generations in appearance, and there are new breakthroughs in design, which ultimately contributed to the highly recognizable appearance style of iQOO 9 Pro.
iQOO 9 Pro currently has two colors, The Burner and the Legendary Edition, of which the Ignition Color is made of plain leather back cover. The legendary version I have in hand uses a glass back cover, which retains the classic BMW tricolor stripe, and is also created with a matte AG stitching process, and the tricolor stripe under the glass cover hides the diamond lattice texture. In the light, you can see the carbon fiber texture on the glass cover, which not only makes the entire fuselage look very advanced sports car, but also brings a better grip to the fuselage.
The lens module of the iQOO 9 Pro ushered in a bold innovation, and the lens module was extended to the right, and the official called this new design the panoramic porthole. The panoramic porthole not only makes the arrangement of the dual main camera more concise and regular, the key is that it is also part of the heat dissipation system, and the entire module uses the same space-grade aluminum alloy to cover the SoC heat source point, which can just play a role in heat insulation when holding laterally.
From the side of the fuselage, it can be seen that the thickness control of the iQOO 9 Pro is very ideal, there are micro-curved designs at the front and back, the rounded body makes the grip more comfortable; the top and bottom of the fuselage also adopt a cut edge design, which is more angular and has a flagship texture. In addition, the iQOO 9 Pro has an infrared remote control opening on the top, and the infrared sensor makes the phone more convenient when controlling home appliances; although there is no speaker opening at the top, the iQOO 9 Pro has a built-in closed stereoscopic double beam, and the audiovisual experience is just as good.
After reading the above various tests and machine experience, it is not difficult to see that the iQOO 9 Pro is a mobile phone with a fairly balanced and comprehensive performance in the new generation of flagship models. It not only has the industry's ceiling-level 2K E5 screen, but also the powerful performance brought by the new generation of Snapdragon 8, the addition of the independent display chip Pro makes it have a gaming experience that other manufacturers do not have, and the appearance of iQOO 9 Pro is also very innovative.
As the masterpiece of iQOO in the new year, iQOO 9 Pro inherits the advantages of the previous generation model, in addition to many new technologies and new breakthroughs, bringing multiple surprises to users. As a key step for iQOO to hit the high-end, the iQOO 9 Pro can be described as a steady and steady hit, and it is the most worthwhile model to buy in this year's flagship model field.
