iQOO’s new mid-range phone offers Snapdragon 778G, UFS 3.1 flash storage, and a 5,000mAh battery

Vivo’s sub-brand iQOO has expanded its smartphone portfolio in India with the launch of the iQOO Z5 5G. The new model succeeds the iQOO Z3 5G that came out in June and packs powerful hardware, including a 120Hz high refresh rate display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC, up to 12GB RAM, 44W fast charging, and more. The iQOO Z3 5G, while impressive for its price, didn’t trouble Xiaomi and Realme that much in the mid-range segment. But with an aggressive price and robust hardware, iQOO’s latest mid-range has the potential to be a gamechanger in the ₹20,000-25,000 price band.
