iQOO 9 Pro review

23 February 2022


Sort by:

That con list is a pretty much a dealbreaker (especially the overheating part). One would think BBK & it's sub-brands would be producing generally flawless phones by now, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    vivo and IQOO's 2019 flagships are still using android 9 and 2020 flagships are still using android 10! do they give any software support at all? a flagship without at least 2-3 years of major upgrades is unacceptable.

          Anonymous, 24 Feb 2022I just have a curious question. The S22+ has almost 4 hours... morehttps://www.gsmarena.com/gsmarena_lab_tests-review-751p6.php

          “Our Endurance rating is the result of combining the power draw from these activities in a formula, which at its most basic level assumes a daily usage scenario including an hour of voice calls, an hour of offline video playback, and an hour of Wi-Fi browsing per day, with the rest of the 24 hours taken up by standby power consumption.”

          Different standby consumption - that is why (264h vs. 240h for the S22+).

            Soon we'll see iQOO BT craps and of course cloud services for data.
            Because this is the reason for removing that important stuff.

              I just have a curious question. The S22+ has almost 4 hours more talk time and 1 and a half hour more video playback. Is just 20 min less in web browsing. How is that the same battery equivalent of 97 hours as this phone? If someone can answer.

                Damn, I'm very curious as to how the ROG Phone 6 will handle the SD Gen 1. Whatever the case, I'm anxious for the TSMC Gen 1 chip.

                          P C M, 24 Feb 2022VIVO will disagree with you. Lets forget the author says this ohones does exactly like s22.
                          Why is bad thing.

                            Jeez. The photos are over saturated, underexposed and dynamic range is all over the place. Most pics have weirdly softened right edges. And you guys call this flagship grade. Even Vivo's midrangers produce better images let alone Samsung or any other brands.
                            Otherwise pretty good phone.
                            Sugar coating the flaws is one thing but this is pathetic. Your reviews are becoming untrustworthy.

                                The damn Qualcomm and its microwave oven snapdragon are ruining a lot of flagships for me this year. Can't wait for MediaTek 9000 chipset to be available.

                                  Hi GSMArena Team,

                                  Could you help to give us the review after 2-4 weeks used?
                                  We want to know what is the pro and cons for this phone and the common issue which may happened on this phone.

                                  I am totally interested on this phone, but I am too afraid of using VIVO phones.

                                        New toaster champion emerged after Exynos 990 😂 At least it didn't die like last years Mi flagship.
