Display – The new iQOO Z3 5G features a 6.58-inch display with FHD+ 1080 x 2408 pixels and a 120 Hz refresh rate system. However, the panel isn’t an AMOLED unit which is a negative point at this price point.

Software – The iQOO Z3 5G’s software isn’t good at all. The smartphone gets Android 11-based Funtouch OS 11.1 and it shows a lot of ads in the mobile browser, sends random notifications and isn’t very intuitive.

Brand Value – iQOO is a new brand in India and since it sells its smartphones only online, the company isn’t well-known yet. So, iQOO doesn’t have a good brand value as such and that is also one of its con.
