IQoo is the latest smartphone brand in the Indian market that has launched iQoo 3 recently and it features some serious hardware. It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, the most powerful processor currently available for Android phones. In addition to that, the top-end model of the iQoo 3 also sports 5G connectivity. With a starting price of Rs. 36, 990, iQoo 3 seems to offer good value on paper. But we need to look at some facts before deciding if we should put money on this new phone or not.
Starting with the display, the Iqoo 3 lacks a high-refresh-rate display. Also, the cameras are tough to handle and click average pictures. A smartphone worth Rs 36, 000 will have high expectations from its features, at least camera functions. The pictures shot on this phone blurs on zooming and are blown up on a large screen though and they simply fall apart. At a glance, the images are good enough to look at, but the aggressive processing completely obliterates low-level detail.
So, in my opinion, this brand new smartphone, iQoo 3 is not a good deal to spend 36k at a go when multiple alternatives are present in a lower price than this.
