iQOO Z6 Pro 5G by vivo (Phantom Dusk, 6GB RAM, 128GB Storage) | Snapdragon 778G 5G | 66W FlashCharge | 1300 nits Peak Brightness | HDR10+

I have been using this phone from last week. I have shifted from realme X7 5g to this phone.The best part is it's performance which is the top level at this price segment. I am loving the gaming performance of this phone. There is no such frame drop or latency issue in this.Also it's UI is very smooth and impressive. I didn't expect this from Funtouch OS. As,I shifted from realme ui to funtouch, but it feels more impressive,featuristic, smooth and bug free.Also it's selfie camera is very best like other Vivo phones.It's rear camera is also good but not the best at this price point.It's battery backup is also very good as it doesn't drain too frequently, It almost last upto 6-7 hours on extreme gaming and more than 1 day on normal usage .But it's Charing speed is not very fast as compared to claim of company. It takes 65-70 minutes for full charge but brand claim for 40 minutes. This is most disappointing part of this phone.Overall this phone well justifies it's price point as I bought it for 21,000.This phone at this price is a proper beast. I am loving this phone.

Honest review after 8 months of usage1. Camera - 3/5No natural colours and details are average in pictures. Both front and back cameras are average. Below average quality cameras according to price, macro lens is useless. Overall it is not a camera centric phone.2. Display Quality- 4/5, Design- 1/5 and Build quality - 5/5Good Amoled display, but in this price they should give 120 Hz refresh rate and 240Hz TSR rather than 90 Hz and 180Hz, water drop notch looks very old. They should give punch hole display in this price. It stings along the edges during playing games and feels like it will slip out of hand. Build quality is good and Schott Xensation Glass is very strong. Haptic feedback is bad and it feels in 3D vibration gaming and typing as well.3. Processor - 5/5Processor is powerful, no lag in gaming and day to day tasks but heats up after Android 13 update.4. Battery life - 4/5Good as expected.7-8 hrs battery backup from 100 to 0 in one day on smart switch refresh rate in moderate use but battery drains automatically even when not in use. In other words, in light uses it gives only 6 hrs backup. Battery drains very fast when it is below 40%.5. Charging time - 4/5It takes almost 45 mintues in winter and 1hr in summer to full charge.6. Audio - 1/5Underperforming speakers and no stereo speakers in this price range 😒. Even 15k smartphones gives stereo speakers. Even mono speaker is not loud, vocals are not clear(there is krrrrr type sound on high volume) and audio quality is also not good.7. RAM management- 1/5RAM management is not good. I have 6gb variant and It can hold only 3-4 apps and sometimes only 2 apps in RAM at once. Heavy apps like BGMI relode every time when you open it.

If you are looking for a gaming phone below 20K (with offer) this is best choice.Pros:1. Good performance: I'm playing Moba games at highest settings, but I prefer 2nd highest settings because both are nearly same and to save bettery.2. Great camera: Not a regular camera user but pics are good, not too much post filter processing like oppo vivo phones. Bukeh option is great to change blurr manually on pics in portrait mode any time.3. Decent battery: I'm on holidays and keep phone screen on 90% of times + 1.5 hrs of gaming at 60fps + wifi on all times, it lasts a day easily. Battery life is not an issue for now because it charges way too quickly.4. Fingers sensor is good. I would say it's better than dedicated sensor in previous oneplus 3T. Never faced error while unlocking.Cons:1. Old style water drop notch. Would have looked premium if provided dot notch.2. No audio jack. Like seriously! You are making a mid range gaming phone and not providing audio jack. Have to bought type c to 3.5mm adapter for rs.240 from service center.3. Minor os bugs: for a funtouch os, it's pretty clean but it gives minor bugs sometimes. Needs to be improved.Water drop notch and audio jack would have made it best phone in this segment but still its better choice than other phones. For for this if you are gamer or go for realme 9 pro+ if not.

I am not a gamer, like to watch video, listen song and other activities like office mail/chat etc. As per my opinion after using 2 weeks:1. Good performance, no lag between switching multiple apps, no lag while typing message. Bluetooth/wifi connectivity works fine. Battery also performes in optimized way.2. Touch performance is quite good, smooth.3. Fingerprint sensor performs good. Only the position could have been little up than the bottom position.4. Camera is good. Good color composition, good focusing. Selfie cam is OK. Macro is average (cannot expect more with 2mp macro camera in 3 camera setup phone)5. Funtouch OS experience is good. I uninstalled some preloaded app, no adware type issue. Recently got November 2022 security patch update (including some fixes as mentioned in details). No issue after update.6. Audio/Video playing quality is very good. Clear picture and sound for 4k/HDR video. It would have been good with stereo speaker. However, audio volume is loud and clear enough with single speaker.7. I am using Jio sim (Kolkata), which got promotional 5g update. Experiencing super internet (unlimited data) speed !Overall, it is value to buy. Also with 6.44 inch screen it is easy to grip and easy to use in one hand. To me it is better than 6.7/6.8 inch phone.
