iQOO Z9 Turbo+: Thin and Light Body, Flagship Experience, Performance King at 3k Price Range

It's hard to believe that a flagship configuration like a 6400mAh battery and Dimensity 9300+ can fit into such a thin and light body without seeing it firsthand. iQOO has once again brought a huge shock to the mobile phone market! The iQOO Z9 Turbo+ is only 7.98mm thick and weighs only 196g, and it is also equipped with the self-developed esports chip Q1, the flagship C8 screen, the flagship imaging algorithm, etc., which can be said to be the only thin and light large-battery performance phone in the 3k price range.

Flagship Dimensity 9300+ Core Unleashed

The iQOO Z9 Turbo+ is powered by the Dimensity 9300+ flagship chip, manufactured using a 4nm process, featuring 4 Cortex-X4 super cores with a maximum frequency of 3.4GHz, and 4 Cortex-A720 large cores with a main frequency of 2.0GHz. It's also the only phone SoC that uses a full large-core architecture. In the AnTuTu benchmark test at 26 room temperature, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ scored 2193009 points, even surpassing gaming phones with active cooling systems. It's clear that iQOO's tuning of this flagship core is exceptional, fully unleashing the performance of the Dimensity 9300+. In the CPU test of Geekbench6, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ also achieved scores of 2268 for single-core and 7551 for multi-core, truly leaving its competitors in the dust, leading not only in its price range but also in higher-end competition.

Super-Resolution and Super-Frame Rate, Game Experience Maxed Out

Even the most powerful performance needs to be reflected in the actual experience. There is no doubt that the Dimensity 9300+ can easily handle most mobile games currently available, even saying that the highest image quality and frame rate offered by most mobile games cannot "squeeze out" this flagship core. To give users a better gaming experience, iQOO has developed an esports chip Q1 that can enhance game resolution and frame rate, making the image look even better.

For example, in the game "Genshin Impact", the image quality is significantly improved after enabling super-resolution, the lines on the characters are clearer, and the details of the vegetation are richer. Through calculations, we have found that "Genshin Impact" can achieve a 1.5k resolution after turning on super-resolution. At the same time, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ can also enable the super-frame rate option, realizing a super-smooth image quality of 72 frames. Although the super-frame rate is achieved through frame insertion, the actual rendering frame rate is 36 frames, but in our actual experience, there is no noticeable difference compared to the native 60 frames.

With 1.5K super-resolution and 72FPS super-frame rate enabled, we ran the "Genshin Impact" Sumeru City map for half an hour in 26 room temperature, and the final results are shown above. From the frame rate graph performance, it can be seen that the game is running at almost full frame rate, with little overall fluctuation, and combined with this 1.5k extreme image quality, the immersion is particularly good. The heat dissipation of the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ is also quite good, using a 6K sky curtain VC liquid cooling system, and after our multiple rounds of testing, the surface temperature of the body maintained at around 42, with an average temperature of less than 40, which can meet the needs of long-term gaming.

6400mAh Blue Ocean Battery, Worry-Free Endurance

The battery capacity of the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ has been upgraded from 6000mAh of the previous generation Z9 Turbo to 6400mAh, an increase of 400mAh, but the overall weight of the phone has only increased by 1g, with a total weight of 196g. At the same time, thanks to the newly upgraded extreme piece reshaping technology, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ maintains the same thickness of 7.98mm as the previous generation while having a larger battery capacity, truly realizing the "more for less" concept.

In our testing, we often test for several hours at a time, and the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ only consumed about 35% of the battery after three rounds of AnTuTu benchmark tests, two rounds of Geekbench6 benchmark tests, and a 70-minute high-quality "Genshin Impact" test, which is quite stable. If we follow the daily usage scenario, it's not an exaggeration to say that the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ can achieve a two-day charge.

In terms of charging, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ continues the family's 80W flash charging configuration, with a measured 1-100% charging time of [insert time] minutes, which is considered fast for a battery as large as 6400mAh. It also supports third-party 55W PD&PPS fast charging technology, taking only 36 minutes to charge the battery from 20% to 80%. Considering that many laptops now support the same PD charging protocol, you can go out with one less charging head.

Flagship 1.5k C8 Screen, Beautiful and Eye-Protective

The iQOO Z9 Turbo+ adopts the flagship-level Huaxing Optoelectronics C8 light-emitting material, with a peak brightness of up to 4500nit, making the screen visible even in strong outdoor light. In addition to high brightness, the screen also has a solid basic quality, with a 1.5K resolution, 452ppi and 144Hz refresh rate, and supports 100% P3 wide color gamut and 10-bit color display.

In terms of eye protection, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ performs exceptionally well. Its LTPS hardware eye protection technology does not need to rely entirely on PWM dimming, and with SVM flicker-free effect, it can maintain an excellent level, achieving the effect of full-time DC dimming. Under low-brightness conditions, the screen supports 3840Hz ultra-high frequency PWM dimming, effectively reducing visual fatigue. After using it for a few days, I really feel that the iQOO screen is very comfortable to look at, not only performing well in brightness, refresh rate and resolution, but also achieving the ultimate in eye protection.

Blue Factory NICE Algorithm, Flagship-Level Photography Experience

For a thin and light large-battery performance phone, the camera performance relies more on algorithms. Thankfully, the blue factory has a lot of experience in image algorithms. The iQOO Z9 Turbo+ boasts the same NICE algorithm as the blue factory's flagship phones, which utilizes computational optics to perform inverse calculations and deblurring based on the lens imaging characteristics, rewriting the ISP image algorithm from the underlying layer and making noise reduction and detail enhancement processes AI-driven.

Overall, the imaging performance of this phone is as expected, with no pressure in recording daily life, and the output is very pleasing to the eye.

No Compromise on Signal, True Flagship

The competition in the 3,000 yuan price range is fierce, and often some configurations have to be sacrificed besides the core selling points, and communication capabilities are often the "sacrifice". The iQOO Z9 Turbo+ provides a very comprehensive configuration in terms of communication, with flagship-level WiFi7 and 5.5G, and also supports tri-carrier concurrency and six-network coordination, allowing users to seamlessly switch between different network environments and maintain a continuous interconnected experience.

In terms of satellite positioning, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ comes with a super-high configuration of dual-frequency GPS + four-frequency Beidou, supporting GPS L1 + L5 and Beidou B1C + B1I + B2a + B2b frequency bands, which can still guarantee positioning accuracy in high-rise buildings, overpasses and other signal-blocking and reflection scenarios, improving drifting and signal loss phenomena, and enhancing anti-interference capabilities.

Easy to Use, Durable, Lasting Peace of Mind

The iQOO Z9 Turbo+ comes with the highly praised OriginOS4 system, which has been optimized in terms of performance and details, ensuring a smoother and more efficient user experience. Its AI "exclusive private assistant" Blue Heart XiaoV, based on vivo's self-developed Blue Heart large model, has powerful intelligent auxiliary capabilities, capable of performing text summarization, text generation, image generation, image modification, and many other AI functions.

In terms of durability, the iQOO Z9 Turbo+ has passed rigorous IP65 dust and water resistance testing. Compared to the previous generation Z9 Turbo, it performs even better in dust and water resistance. According to vivo laboratory tests, the
