Mention iQOO, presumably everyone is very familiar with it, it is a sub-brand of vivo, iQOO in the early years with a clear product positioning and KPL designated competition machine, not only let everyone know it, but also promote its sales. However, in the early years of iQOO has been specializing in the field of games, when it was in a very awkward position, there were game phones in the front, and then there were all-round flagship phones, fortunately, later iQOO for different series, made different product positioning.
Nowadays, iQOO has a lot of series, including digital series, Neo series, Z series, etc., of which the positioning of the Z series is between the Neo series, it is the main price-performance market of thousands of yuan, and in the second half of last year, the Z series also ushered in a new member - iQOO Z5, after such a long period of precipitation, is this phone still worth starting?
In terms of appearance, although iQOO Z5 is not too stunning, but it is not ugly, in the camera module using a rectangular small rounded angle design, the camera is arranged in a vertical row, there is a similar metal extension design on the right side of the camera, and this extended material will have a color reflection effect when it encounters light, and the overall value is very high. In terms of color matching, iQOO Z5 provides three color schemes, namely Blue Origin, Thin Twilight Morning Light, and Dream Space. This phone is also very thin and light in the thousand yuan machine, the fuselage weighs 193g, and the thickness is 8.49mm, which is very competitive compared to the same price model.
iQOO Z5 fuselage front using a 6.67-inch primary color screen, and this screen is currently a rare LCD material, although in the color and brightness is not as strong as the OLED screen, but it does not have OLED habitual strobe and burn screen risk, so no matter which screen material has its own advantages, here will not be too much evaluation. In addition, the resolution of this screen is 2400×1080, and it supports a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz and a touch sample rate of 240Hz, which is smoother and smoother when playing games.
In terms of imaging, the rear of the iQOO Z5 is equipped with a three-camera module, which is a 64-megapixel ultra-high-definition main camera + 8 million ultra-wide-angle lens + 2 million macro lens, which covers the current mainstream focal length and most use scenarios, which is still enough for daily use, but compared with the mobile phone specializing in photography at the same price, the imaging quality of the machine is still a certain gap. Since the positioning of the machine is still more biased towards performance, with a price of less than 2K, it is also understandable.
Performance is one of the highlights of the iQOO Z5, which is equipped with the Snapdragon 778G processor, which uses a 6nm process and is very powerful at the same price. In addition, iQOO Z5 also uses the LCDDR 5 + UFS3.1 scheme, which is a memory combination that is rare in the Snapdragon 778G camp. It is worth mentioning that the LNDDR 5 memory used by the machine is a full blood version, which is 50% higher than the previous generation, and the storage is 80% higher than that of the previous generation, which is enough to ensure the smooth operation of the machine.
In terms of battery life, iQOO Z5 has a built-in 5000 mAh large battery, which is also one of the standard equipment of the thousand yuan machine, so the machine can provide longer battery life, and medium and light use can achieve a charge a day without any pressure. In addition, iQOO Z5 also supports up to 44W wired fast charging, 26 minutes can be full of 50% of the power, this configuration is more mediocre, after all, the same price model 67W fast charging is everywhere.
In general, the positioning of iQOO Z5 is very clear, that is, a mid-range cost-effective mobile phone, the machine is more focused on the optimization of the game, but in other aspects it also shows a valuable level of the same price, and there is nothing to be picky about in appearance, the only drawback is that the plastic feeling of the back panel is very heavy. If you want to buy a low-energy thousand-dollar flagship machine, and like LCD screens, this phone is very good. If you want to pursue more extreme performance, the 870 model at the same price point is not bad!
