The Iqoo 3 offers impressive speed and performance along with an excellent battery life. With dedicated pressure sensitive gaming buttons, an Ultra Gaming Mode that lets you customize a seamless gaming experience and Snapdragon 865, it’s a worthy competitor against the Asus Rog 2 Phone, but at a lower price point.

So in the end, if you want a well-rounded high-performance handset at a reasonable price and you're okay with trading off a bit of camera prowess in return for a cautious gaming bias - the iQOO 3 5G will fit like a glove.

80% IQOO 3 5G review: The one for the gamers

Yet, its biggest drawback is the fact that it comes battling in a price segment which currently is flush with some really impressive options. So, while the IQOO 3 5G may impress as a package in isolation, when compared to the likes of the Galaxy S10 Lite and Realme X50 Pro, the appeal of the IQOO 3 5G starts to fade a little.

80% iQOO 3 review: Do you really need a 5G phone right now?
Source: The Indian Express Archive.org version
iQOO 3 does seem like a power-packed device with impressive specifications but do you really need a 5G device right now, especially if it will set you back by almost Rs 45,000? How future-ready do you really need to be? Frankly, if you are someone who updates phones every two years, a 5G device doesn’t make sense today given the networks won’t be in place so soon. The 4G variant, which starts at Rs 36,990, I feel is better value-for-money since it comes with the same specifications.

One thing I’d like to immediately get out of the way is that the 5G version is simply not worth spending money on. Sure, your phone will be future-proof, but for how long? It’ll likely be several years before we see 5G in India, and by that time, you’ll have moved on to a newer phone. And that 12 GB RAM? You really don’t need that either. If you are going for this phone, get the 4G, 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage variant that retails at Rs 39,990.

vivo iQOO 3 hands-on review
Source: GSM Arena Archive.org version
The vivo iQOO 3 was just unveiled in India, with a starting price of INR36,990 ($515/€475), for the base 8GB/128GB LTE variant. A bump-up in memory to 8GB/265GB will set you back INR39,990 ($555/€512) and the top-tier iQOO 3 5G, with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, retails for INR44,990 ($625/€575). In China, the iQOO 3 is only available with 5G across all of the memory tiers and with slightly different price points (but in the same ballpark).

Comment

Qualcomm Adreno 650: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 25% faster than the Adreno 640 in the Snapdragon 855 SoC and offers 50% more compute units (ALUs). For Android it should be one of the fastest graphics cards in 2020.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

SD 865: High-end SoC for smartphones that was introduced in late 2019 and manufactured in 7 nm at TSMC (improved N7P). Integrates one “Prime Core” based on a ARM Cortex-A77 architecture clocked at up to 2.84 GHz. Three more performance cores are also based on the A77 but clock up to 2.42 GHz. Furthermore, four energy saving cores are integrated that are based on the ARM Cortex-A55 architecture and clock at up to 1.8 GHz. In addition to the processor cores, the SoC integrates a WiFi 6 modem (including 60 GHz mmWave support), a Hexagon 698 DSP (up to 15 TOPS) and a Spectra 480 ISP. The integrated memory controller now supports faster LPDDR5 memory with up to 2,750 MHz. LTE is not included anymore in the SoC, but the external Snapdragon X55 5G modem has to be used.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

82.8%: This rating is slightly above average, there are somewhat more devices with worse ratings. However, clear purchase recommendations look different.
