But cropped.

It is f2.3 - f2.8, still you complain. But keeps silent when other put f4.0 at 120mm.

Should learn before making scandal.

        Very nice phone for Perfect Price... Also, it has an IR Blaster Ability... It means, I can command any TV, DVD, Laser Disc Player, Blu RAY Player and all otherd Remote Controled Electronic Devices on Earth, as an "Universal Remote Control"
        I'm gonna buy White One, even if doesnt like BMW Motorized Vehicles on Earth...

          Akthanakos, 28 Nov 2024Nope, not even redmi k80 pro beats iqoo 13(close though), s... moreThere's the ultra version also, but it will be too expensive I guess...

            They should have kept the same rear camera setup as iqoo 12. That would have made iqoo 13 the best budget SD 8 Elite phone.

              The K80 Pro doesn't aim for 'absolute' performance at all, but aims for a performance/consumption balance.

              Furthermore, it costs much less than the iQOO 13 and I find it aesthetically more pleasing to the eye. (elegant)

                  Qualcomm wanted bragging rights and put out a chip that falls to 50% when gaming effectively ending up slower than chips much older. Nice one

                    Anonymous, 28 Nov 2024You're way exaggerating on Sony's part lol. 4K di... moretheir speakers are front facing but not the highest quality, their photos aren't that great, i've seen a lot of samples as well. And at that price, what's the point of having a microSD card slot if i can just get a 1 TB chinese Ultra and get a FiiO KA1/KA3? Absurdly priced with nothing going for it.

It's far from a disgrace just because they changed some things and didn't improve the camera hardware further.

                      The Xperia 1 VI is still very much an enthusiast's phone. Sure you can get better cameras and overall hardware on other flagships, but no other company besides Sony are willing to put front-facing stereo speakers, headphone jack, and a card slot in one complete package.

                        JimmyTheGreatest, 28 Nov 2024I wonder if the upcoming Poco F7 can beat this iQOO 13. Xia... moreNope, not even redmi k80 pro beats iqoo 13(close though), so poco f7 will be miles behind this.

Xia... moreFrom the various benchmarks on the net, it seems the most balanced X Elite among the various devices with this SoC. In addition, the price is its strong point. (it won't cost a shotgun for your pockets and a kidney sold) What was supposed to be the power point of a Realme GT7 Pro, but which was not. And if I'm not mistaken, the price of this iQOO 13 promises to be another shot for the pockets and double kidney bones sold, if it were to land in the international market.

                              I wonder if the upcoming Poco F7 can beat this iQOO 13. Xiaomi is nervous now...

The Asus phones are a disgrace, but so is the Xperia 1 VI.

                                      what we have got in iQOO 13 isn't too bad - it's actually better than I expected. It's just less exciting.

                                      now come to think of it, what if we could have both the 1/1.4" 200MP telephoto monster of Vivo X200 Pro and the monster performance+battery life of iQOO 13?

                                      anyhow, I think iQOO 13 is simply better than Realme GT7 Pro. Now we need to see how the OnePlus 13 and Xiaomi 15 fares with the competition....

                                        Nowadays, reviews are all about the chipset, camera, and some basic software stuff, and I hate this because every phone feels the same and boring, and sometimes I even skip checking the reviews because I already know what reviewers will be talking about.
                                        I hope reviewers can start covering some underrated features that may prove useful to the average consumer.
