The iQOO brand has a trio of new devices aimed at the midrange segment. Z9 Turbo leads the pack with its iQOO 12-inspired design, Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset and 6,000 mAh battery with 80W fast charging. The vanilla Z9, not to be confused with the one launched in India, features a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip and the same 6,000 mAh battery and 80W fast charging. The Z9x is the affordable entry with Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 SoC and 44W charging.
iQOO Z9 Turbo and Z9 feature 6.78-inch AMOLED displays with FHD+ resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. Both phones pack 16MP front-facing cameras and embedded fingerprint scanners. Z9x gets a 6.72-inch IPS LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate and an 8MP selfie cam.
Z9 Turbo and Z9 house 50MP LYT-600 main sensors with the former also getting an 8MP ultrawide lens while the latter gets a 2MP depth helper. Z9x comes with a 50MP main shooter and 2MP depth sensor.
Z9 Turbo is the most capable performer out of the bunch thanks to its Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset which is also paired with a display chip that takes some strain off the chipset during intensive gaming sessions. Z9 Turbo also gets a larger vapor chamber, faster UFS 4.0 storage and LPDDR5X RAM compared to UFS 2.2 and LPDDR4X on the Z9 and Z9x.
All three phones boot OriginOS 4 based on Android 14 and come with IP64 ingress protection
iQOO Z9 Turbo starts at CNY 1,999 ($275) in its 12/256GB trim and comes in black, white and green colors. Open sales in China are scheduled to begin on April 29.
