vivo iQOO Z9 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The vivo iQOO Z9 suits buyers looking for an especially bright, smooth display alongside a large battery. The main drawback of this version is its non-expandable 128 GB storage, which leaves less room to add files later.
Its 6.78″ AMOLED panel reaches 144Hz and 4500 nits; both figures are among the best of its time. The 453 ppi density and 89.3% usable surface add to a display that is one of the phone’s clearest strengths. Its 6000 mAh battery and 80W charging are better than those of most phones of its time.
The Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, 8 GB of RAM and UFS 2.2 storage make the hardware typical overall, although its AnTuTu score of 866,863 is better than that of most phones from the same period. The 50 MP rear camera with optical stabilization is a balanced setup, while optical zoom is 0x. Connectivity includes 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC and Dual Nano-SIM.
Overall, the vivo iQOO Z9 is better than most phones of its time and earns a NeoScore of 6.9. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize the display, battery and broad connectivity.
