NeoTeo's verdict
Which of the two is the better buy
The vivo iQOO Z11S is the more complete choice for buyers who prioritize display, battery, and software: its 6.83″ screen reaches 2,000 nits, and its battery holds 10,000 mAh. The older iQOO 3 5G counters with more rear cameras and faster charging; the Z11S leads overall, 7.0 to 6.1.
The Z11S display delivers 1,260 × 2,800 px and 450 ppi, compared with 1,080 × 2,400 px and 409 ppi on the iQOO 3 5G’s 6.44″ screen. It also runs Android 16 with Google services, while the 2020 model has Android 10 and no Google services. Storage tops out at 512 GB versus 256 GB.
The Z11S pairs a 50 MP main camera with optical image stabilization and a 10,000 mAh battery. The iQOO 3 5G adds telephoto and ultrawide cameras, a 16 MP front camera versus 8 MP, and 55 W charging versus 44 W. Buyers after a large screen and high-capacity battery have more reason to choose the Z11S; the iQOO 3 5G suits those who value extra cameras and faster charging.
