    Iqoo is not meant for purely gamers . Iqoo is meant for people in almost all category like an all-rounder and cheaper than Vivo .

        why not just make a phone with a decent gpu. a 2nd one is just an exercise in futility.

            Why these companies like Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, IQOO they don't come with usb type C 3.0 and above so we can stream our games through Elgato which requires an HDMI output through type C port of any phone.
            This is the only reason I as a gamer can't think of buying these phones as I can't live stream my gameplay on my YouTube channel because these phones don't have type C 3.0 (HDMI out support or MHL support).

And yes, it doesn't have all those awful "features" that ruin it's ability as a phone. So it's a proper phone with great gaming abilities. If I wanted a gaming phone, I'd buy this over any redmagic or rog phones.

                No headphone jack for low latency audio during intense gaming sessions?
                No bulky external cooling fans for heat management?
                No gaming triggers? Not even a bold gaming centric design?
                No reverse charging? Lack of a customisable gaming ui? Accessories in the box tailored for gamers? Cooling fans Maybe it has dual charging ports or powerful audio?
                No?

                Nah. No serious gamer is going to pick this over a dedicated gaming phone.

                  Game Legion, 30 Oct 2023This is NOT a gaming phoneIt basically is lmao. Top of the range specs plus a dedicated gaming chip? Maybe they won't sell it as a proper gaming phone but I know people would buy it for it's performance in games alone. I'd rather use this then any gaming phone tbh

I find it iqoo is more all rounder you could say, it's not bulky and has a decent camera.

                      This one has huge camera upgrade and the newest sd chip.

                      Kinda wish iqoo add more features on gaming like bypass charging etc.

                        Plus, when I said that the whole camera bump is black to blend the camera in, you just ❌ for no reason. Just shows something wasn't right with you that time.

I'm just a bit relieved to see the cameras themselves are arranged in a somewhat usual pattern inside the island, unlike the present iqoo neo7 pro which seemingly wants to taunt people with its weird camera island and camera placement

                            They call it a gaming phone?? lol this does not even have dedicated shoulder triggers and have a lame curved screen. To be a "Gaming Phone", it should have dedicated hardware and software features like that of ROG phones and RedMagic Phones. No shoulder triggers, dedicated cooling, nor a jam packed gaming suite lol pure marketing as they say.

                                      So far so good lets see what miracles those cameras could do.
                                      I really wonder.

                                        A gaming phone that isn't awfully ugly, big win in my book
