The battle of the king of volumes in April this year was really intense.

OnePlus, Realme, and Redmi have all tried their best to compete for the first place in the thousand-yuan positioning.

Now, iQOO is here too.

They have unveiled a new generation of thousand-yuan performance flagship, the iQOO Z9 Turbo. This new machine holds the strongest processor and the largest capacity battery at this price, and joins this year's thousand-yuan volume king war.

The third-generation Snapdragon 8s comes as standard

Let's take a look at the most emphasized link of the thousand-yuan volume kings - performance.

The iQOO Z9 Turbo is powered by the third-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s mobile platform and iQOO Turbo, paired with a combination of LDPPR 5X RAM and UFS 4.0 flash memory.

The initial firmware score is around 1.58 million points, and most of the software is smooth in daily use, even when playing Peace Elite in HDR image quality and high frame rate mode, it is smooth and stable. During the game, I also turned on the game superframe function in the assistant, and the perspective switching when opening the camera or running is also silky smooth.

If you change to the highest image quality and turn on the original painting mode, the pressure on the mobile phone will be greater, and there will be one or two obvious lags when you run the map to load the map. However, the overall performance is fairly smooth, as long as the battle is done after the map is loaded.

In addition to performance, the heat dissipation effect of the phone is also worth mentioning.

The Z9 Turbo uses iQOO's latest 6K Skylight VC liquid cooling to dissipate heat, and the entire heatsink area is 6043mm², which covers more camera positions than the previous generation. You must know that the centralized hotspot of most mobile phones will be located under the camera, and the heat dissipation material coverage can improve the heat dissipation efficiency.

In fact, the Z9 Turbo is a fast hot and fast fast type.

When running scores and gaming, the lower part of the phone's DECO and the lower side of the body heat up, and the temperature is up to about 40°C. After exiting the game, the phone can be stationary for about 8 minutes, and the phone can return to normal temperature, and the cooling efficiency is still very high.

A mobile phone that can be used as a power bank

Battery life is the core selling point of the iQOO Z9 Turbo.

It's powered by the largest 6,000mAh battery in this segment, which is an exaggeration even on a flagship or gaming phone.

The exaggerated capacity is exchanged for a long battery life, and I started using it after I fully charged the phone during the test, and I tried 3-5 consecutive benchmark tests, and after downloading the data packages of four mainstream games, I started to use Peace Elite and Genshin Impact to do performance tests. During the break, my mobile phone will also help me finish the daily activity of "Ark of Tomorrow" and the elimination of it in a week. After one night of standby, the next night, the phone struggled to reach 1%.

During this test, the phone had two SIM cards attached, the power option was in Monster mode at all times, the game was turned on at maximum quality, and the image quality enhancement in the game assistant was turned on.

If you turn these settings off and don't need to do continuous benchmark tests, the iQOO Z9 Turbo can continue to go two days without charging.

In terms of charging, iQOO has equipped this 6000mAh with an 80W USB-C to A fast charging combo. On a 0-100% charge, the Z9 Turbo was able to charge to 60% in 30 minutes, 40 minutes to 84%, and then to a full charge in the last eight minutes.

Without 100 fast charging, the Z9 Turbo charges a little slower than other phones that take around 30 minutes to fully charge. If the dedicated fast charging part can be increased to 120W of the iQOO, the charging experience will be much more comfortable.

However, the Z9 Turbo is not bad in terms of compatibility with universal fast charging, and the charging power is also more than 30W after connecting to a charging head that supports PD, so you can only bring a universal fast charging head when you go out every day.

In addition, the Z9 Turbo can be wired with 7.5W reverse charging via its own USB-C port, so that in addition to maintaining stability when connecting external devices that need power such as portable hard drives, it can also be used to quickly recharge small devices such as watches and wireless headphones.

To have a large battery, but also to be thin and light

Truth be told, the design of the iQOO Z9 Turbo is a more conventional one.

The Z9 Turbo uses a straight screen on the front and a right-angled bezel design, and the back is clean, with only the DECO and iQOO logos on the bottom retained.

The sleek square DECO uses the gunwald design of the flagship iQOO 12 series, with the main camera and ultra-wide eyes made into big eyes, and the flash is placed close to the outside of the gunwale. Etching textures have been added around the camera to create radiant light paths at different angles in line with the light.

The porthole edge has a star track scale design, which is draped around the DECO, giving it the feeling of a lens focus ring. The scale is a bit sharp, and it feels a bit awkward to the touch. For the feel and to protect the scale from bumps, it is best to use it with a case on a daily basis.

The iQOO Z9 Turbo is available in three colors: Midnight Black, Starlight White, and Mountain Green. Thanks to the efficient heat dissipation design in the machine, it can maintain a cold and smooth feel in daily bare metal use.

But because the body is so smooth, it is easy to slip on the table. For protection, it is recommended to wear a protective case at all times.

The body is 7.98mm thick, which is not too thick when put on the body of a 6000mAh battery. The design of the right-angled middle frame can give fingers a friendly docking experience when holding, and coupled with the curved and smooth transition of the back cover, the iQOO Z9 Turbo feels solid and comfortable in the hand.

The weight of 194.9g is fine in the pocket, but it is only a little overwhelming in the hand.

There is a 6.78-inch 1.5K 144Hz anti-flicker eye protection screen on the front of the fuselage, and the screen material is CSOT C8, and the maximum brightness can reach 4500nits in HDR state.

The details are sharp, and the colors are full but not intense. In the state of high brightness, the transparent and clear screen looks quite eye-catching.

Especially when the highest image quality and HDR display are turned on in games, the advantage of the phone in highlighting will become more obvious.

The camera straight out is not bad

For the camera, the iQOO Z9 Turbo uses a 1/1.95-inch 50-megapixel Sony LYT-600 for the main camera, which supports OIS optical image stabilization.

Paired with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle, it forms a standard dual-camera combination for performance cameras.

In daytime conditions, the Z9 Turbo is a little more transparent than the two devices I've tested before. The contrast is higher, and the colors will be slightly thicker. Without cropping and with plenty of light, the lines on the main camera are also sharp, and there are no major problems with detail.

When switching to the cropped 2x, the overall tendencies of the image are similar to that of 1x, and the clarity is maintained when showing large areas of line detail, and the photo is not grayed out to improve the dynamics of the picture, and the image looks good.

It's just that when shooting in 2x mode, the floor details are a little blurry and smeared. After seeing the details of the rooftop circular building, I feel that this should just be a matter of optimization, and it will be okay to adjust it in the future.

In low-light environments, the iQOO Z9 Turbo's performance is also more normal. The camera will be adjusted slightly while retaining the current ambient light ratio, and the image can be balanced between brightness and transparency, which will look much better than brightening the night into the day.

▲ Turn on night mode

The experience in night mode is also good, the noise control is better than in regular mode, and the picture is more transparent than normal shooting. Noise is noticeable when the user brightens the image in normal mode, but if you switch to night mode and shoot with the same exposure compensation, the image will be much cleaner.

And there is no blind brightening in night mode, and the usability of direct exit is still very high.

Distinctive bucket machine

Looking at the pricing first, the iQOO Z9 Turbo is available in five storage variants.

The 1TB version is not offered, but a large storage of 12GB is also offered for those who opt for 512GB of RAM:

12GB +256GB 1999 元12GB +512GB 2399元16GB +256GB 2299元16GB +512GB 2599元

Overall, the iQOO Z9 Turbo is a thousand-dollar bucket machine with distinctive features.

Using the third-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 8S at the top of this price range, with iQOO's independent graphics chip Turbo, and accessories with high performance specifications, the Z9 Turbo has raised the lower limit of performance of the Z9 Turbo, and the Z9 Turbo has good performance in daily use and gaming experience.

As long as you don't have heavy storage needs, or want to use that phone as a portable hard drive, the iQOO Z9 Turbo is enough.

The 6000mAh battery is the most attractive selling point of the iQOO Z9 Turbo, which can withstand the pressure of continuous performance tests and high-intensity gaming for a day or two on a daily basis, which is enough for most people.

It's a shame that you didn't use 120W fast charging, but given the length of time the phone has been in use and the support for universal charging devices, it's not impossible to get used to it here.

The appearance design is relatively mediocre, and the combination of performance machines with straight screens and straight frames plus the cyan back cover that has become popular this year is mostly a bit of aesthetic fatigue.

However, the wide-brimmed design of the straight-mid model can fit the grip shape, and the AG back cover that keeps it cool for a long time is also comfortable. If you are also a lover of right-angled bezel phones, you should not refuse this machine either.

If you need a bucket machine that can be full of gaming performance and battery life, then the iQOO Z9 Turbo is still a new device worth buying.
