Reviews

8.3/10 by Shubham Raheja | 12 Mar 2024

The iQOO Z9 nails performance, display, and battery - the essentials for a sub-₹20,000 phone. While it skips an ultrawide camera, the main sensor delivers. Software offers a bloatware removal option, but some user interface tweaks would be nice. Overall, the Z9 is a great pick for budget gamers. (79 words)

8.6/10 by Shubham Raheja | 05 Mar 2024

Nothing’s proven that once you get the manufacturing in place, you can create a budget phone at an unbeatable price. The Phone (2a) isn’t for the hipsters or someone who just wants a clean UI – it’s for the masses. Its new Glyph lights are minimal and not in your face, it’s powerful enough to challenge some of the more expensive rivals, it’s got a decent pair of cameras, and it can last an entire day.
