When I first saw the iQOO Z10x, I thought it would be just another basic budget phone — like the iQOO Z9x. But after using it for a few days, I changed my mind. iQOO has improved many things this time, from design to performance. Let me share my honest experience with this phone.
Feature | Details |
📱 Display | 6.72-inch Full HD+ LCD |
⚙️ Processor | MediaTek Dimensity 7300 |
🤳 Front Camera | 8-megapixel |
📷 Rear Cameras | 50-megapixel (Main) + 2MP (Depth) |
🧠 RAM | 6GB |
💾 Storage | 128GB |
🔋 Battery | 6500mAh |
📱 Operating System | Android 15 |
🖼️ Resolution | 1080 x 2408 pixels |
💎 Design – Clean Look and Easy to Hold
The back of the phone has a matte finish. It doesn’t catch fingerprints or dust, which is very helpful for daily use. The phone body is made of plastic, but still feels good in hand.
The Ultramarine color I received looked nice — it’s a light blue-purple shade. When you move the phone under light, you see a smooth wave-like pattern. It’s stylish, but not too shiny or loud.
📌 Good to know: The back is slightly curved, so the phone fits nicely in the hand.
📱 Display – Good but Bezels Are Thick
This phone has a 6.72-inch FHD+ LCD screen with 120Hz refresh rate. Scrolling feels smooth and watching videos is fun.
But one small issue: the borders (bezels) around the screen are a bit thick — especially at the bottom. If you like very slim borders, you might notice this.
📷 Camera – Basic but Okay for Day Use
The cameras are simple:
- 50MP main camera
- 2MP depth camera
- 8MP selfie camera
Photos in sunlight look fine — colors are nice but not very sharp. At night, photos get a bit blurry. Selfies are okay for social media and video calls.
📌 No OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) — so photos can be shaky if your hand moves.
⚙️ Performance – Fast for Daily Tasks
This phone has a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor, which is better than the old Z9x’s processor. I used it for WhatsApp, YouTube, and some gaming — all worked smoothly.
I even tried BGMI (game) on medium settings. It worked fine and the phone didn’t get too hot. You get a 6GB RAM variant, which is better than the Z9x’s 4GB option.
🔋 Battery – Long-Lasting Power
The best thing? The 6,500mAh battery! It easily lasts one full day, and sometimes even more. If you don’t use the phone too much, it can go up to 2 days.
Charging is 44W, and it takes about 1 hour to charge fully. Not the fastest, but still pretty good.
📶 Connectivity – Good Features, Some Missing
👍 Good things:
- Dual 5G support
- Wi-Fi 6
- Bluetooth 5.4
- IP64 rating (water and dust protection)
👎 Missing:
- No NFC
- No 3.5mm headphone jack
If you use wired earphones, you’ll need a Type-C adapter.
🧠 Software – Cleaner, But Still Not Perfect
The last phone (Z9x) had a lot of unwanted apps and notifications. This one is better, but still has a few pre-installed apps. You can uninstall most of them.
It runs on Funtouch OS, which is based on Android. Overall, it feels smooth, but iQOO can still improve it more.
💰 Price and Variants – Good for the Budget
6GB RAM + 128GB Storage – ₹13,499
8GB RAM + 128GB Storage – ₹14,999
8GB RAM + 256GB Storage – ₹16,499
The 8GB + 128GB version is the best value in my opinion — good performance and enough storage for most users.
✅ Final Words – Should You Buy iQOO Z10x?
If your budget is under ₹15,000 and you want a phone that has:
- Big battery
- Smooth performance
- Good design
- Reliable for daily use
Then yes, iQOO Z10x is a smart choice. The cameras are basic, but if you don’t care much about photography, this phone won’t disappoint you.
I personally used this phone, and I liked the battery and smooth use the most.
