            As a person that isnt solely focused on camera, rest of the specs look really good seems under rated would be amazing if the Chinese version can be flashed with global rom , I'd might take it over the OnePlus 13 then

              Has vivo axed the pro version?

                camera is a downgrade from iQOO 12... but oh well, who cares. It's a gaming phone on a budget.

                  Not for me due to the massively downgraded main camera and periscope from the IQOO 12. However plenty of upgrades too in other areas and have to applaud IQOO for being the first and probably only brand not to increase the price. All the other brands have talked about increasing costs and IQOO comes along and gets on with the job and doesn't increase the price. BTW the article says a quad curved display but it's a flat display according to Vivo's own website

                        DarlingYext, 13 hours ago"..upgraded cameras .." The telephoto is actua... moreMain camera is too a downgrade

                          Finally the coverage but it so bare bones

                          This article doesn't talk about the Q2 chipset or it's cheaper price compared to say the OnePlus 13 etc

                          No statements on the 60fps steady for about 12 hours

                          Or details on the display technicalities

                          It is what it is I'm not trying to come off as entitled my intent is just to criticise constructively

                          Maybe all these releases are pressuring gsmarena staff and this is he best article they could cook up as efficiently as possible

                          Again it is what it is.. is still think the iqoo 13 is the snapdragon 8 elite underdog

                          This also has usb 3.2 so it can legitimately run display out stuff like a pc which is an ultra rare feature

                            "..upgraded cameras .."

                            The telephoto is actually a huge downgrade from the 3x periscope that the iQOO 12 had.
