Verdict
iQOO Z5 5G is the latest device to get Snapdragon 778G chipset and with 12GB RAM you get top-notch performance and battery life. The display supports 120Hz refresh rate but misses out on AMOLED panel for better quality. The 256GB storage is not expandable, the primary rear camera clicks good photos, and 44W charging speed is always helpful. However, the software needs a bit of clean up because of bloatware. Worth buying if you need a performance-centric phone.
