![]() ![]() I previously encountered the chipset on the POCO X4 Pro (review) and I can’t say I was overly impressed with it. The iQOO Z6 is the cheapest phone with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G SoC. The phone’s 16MP selfie camera incorporates Vivo’s facial oversharpening and fairer skin tones but does a better job at handling the exposure behind the face. It is also prudent to mention that for some reason the 4GB RAM version of the device has neither the bokeh mode nor the Night mode. The dedicated Night mode was of little help in most cases. For once, lens flaring was not a concerning issue but even with a ton of supporting lights across the frame, the sensor had a hard time gathering details. Getting the subject in focus was a strenuous task and the excessive oversharpening to reduce noise affected the shot too. In low light conditions, the camera fares below expectations even for a budget phone. The macro and depth shooters were average at best with edge detection on the latter being the only worthwhile mention. The AI-based scene detection worked only to amplify colours on the image and nothing more. Focusing was quick enough along with the shutter speeds but there was a general softness in shots and the dynamic range wasn’t very wide. The sensor does well not to blow up highlights in the background but exposure levels brighten up the shot to unnatural levels. Photos captured by the device are not really spectacular, with decent colour saturation levels and spotty detailing. For gaming enthusiasts, the Z6 is equipped with a fast 240Hz of touch sampling rate which is the best the segment has to offer in terms of touch response.Ĭoming to the cameras, the iQOO Z6 uses a 50MP primary shooter which is supported by a 2MP macro and 2MP depth sensor. During my time with the device, there was hardly a moment when the screen stuttered or caused any jitters when set at 120Hz. The refresh rate can be set to Smart Switch or be permanently locked at 60, 90, or 120Hz. Adjustments can be made in terms of the three preset colour profiles along with toggles for eye-care and dark mode. However, for the average user, these are things could be of little concern as the Z6’s screen gets plenty bright for indoor usage and the colour calibration is decent enough for most visual content. The LCD screen does have a few limitations as compared to an OLED display, such as poorer viewing angles, lighter blacks, and a shallower dynamic range. iQOO claims a 90.61 percent screen-to-body ratio but the presence of a waterdrop notch and chunky bezels around the panel paint a rather different picture. ![]() As far as the display goes, the iQOO Z6 sports a 6.58-inch panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ (2,408 x 1,080) resolution. ![]()
