Editorial report

vivo Z1x technical sheet

The vivo Z1x suits buyers who value battery capacity and an AMOLED display, but its peak brightness is lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. The 6.38-inch Super AMOLED display has a density of 404 ppi, higher than on most displays from that period; its 430 nits of peak brightness, however, is lower than most.

Its 8 GB of RAM exceeds the amount in most phones launched around the same time, while its AnTuTu result of 172,500 is below average. The 48 MP camera offers higher resolution than most phones from that period and records video at 4K and 30 fps. There is also an 8 MP ultrawide camera. Its 4500 mAh battery has more capacity than that of most phones from the same time, and 22.5 W charging is slightly above average. At 189.6 g, it is heavier than average.

Overall, the vivo Z1x is above average among phones launched around the same time in its overall result and the areas assessed. It is a sensible choice for buyers who prioritize battery capacity, RAM and display density, and can accept limited brightness and above-average weight. Its NeoScore is 5.1.
