The iQOO 5G version sounds like the first half of the year's iQOO plug-in with a 5G baseband. However, after I got it, I found that there are still many upgrades. Now I will take you to the iQOO 5G version.
Appearance: At first glance, the iQOO 5G version is no different from iQOO. It is a front water drop screen with three shots vertically arranged on the back. But when the phone is held in hand, you can feel the obvious difference, that is, it is thicker and heavier. The battery capacity of iQOO 5G version has been increased from 4000mAh to 4500mAh from the previous generation, so it is not difficult to explain that the 5G version is thicker and heavier. The author believes that this may be related to the baseband power consumption of the 5G version, but at present, the author has not used the 5G network in detail, so he cannot give you a detailed explanation.
The second feeling of using this mobile phone is that the texture of the glass on the back has also changed. From the frosted back cover of the MONSTER version to ordinary glass, the tactile change is obvious, the texture is slightly worse than that of the previous generation, and it is more fingerprint stained. The position of the camera module moved slightly to the middle, and the bulge became smaller. The RGB light band of "MONSTER INSIDE" is still there. The iQOO in the lower left corner has become iQOO 5G.
Compared with the back side, the front side of the machine changes less. The only difference is that the plastic wrapping around the screen becomes thicker, which will have a certain impact on vision and touch.
The existence of two shoulder keys on the metal middle frame is no longer emphasized, and an antenna is added to the right side. The position of the card slot is moved from the left side of the middle frame to the bottom, and the card slot has become a double-layer structure. The texture on the keys has also been slightly adjusted to become more low-key.
The improvement in appearance has made this iQOO more low-key, but the weight and thickness of the body have increased while increasing the battery capacity.
Compared with the appearance change, iQOO Pro 5G is more radical for internal upgrading.
The processor is upgraded to Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus, which has the same frequency as the 855 Plus on other mobile phones. There is no additional overclocking version.
The network regulator is SDX50M, which is often referred to as the X50 baseband. It is this baseband that gives this mobile phone the "5G" title.
The driving model of the screen is SOFEG04. The 6.41-inch Samsung Super AMOLED panel has a resolution of 2340 x 1080. This driver has been used from X23 until now, and the quality of the screen is very similar.
The rear three camera CMOS from top to bottom are S5K3L6 IMX582、GC2375, They are 13MP F2.2 ultra wide angle, 48MP F1.79 main camera and 2MP sub camera.
It is still a mainstream configuration, and the main camera is upgraded to IMX582. Compared with the IMX363 of IQOO, the improvement of imaging quality is quite large. Unfortunately, it is not equipped with the optical anti shake and telephoto lens is missing, so full focus coverage cannot be achieved. The front photo is 12MP S5K2LQ.
Samsung UFS3.0 flash memory is used for storage, and the model is KLUEG8UHDB-C2D1, which is the same as Black Shark.
The combination of HiFi, TFA9894+AW87319+AK4377a+CS43130, which excites audio enthusiasts, is added while the headphone hole is reserved.
The electricity meter is Texas Instruments BQ27750, and the charging is still 11V/4A, with a maximum of 44W fast charging.
Fingerprint identification still uses the fingerprint under the optical screen of Huiding Technology, and the model is still GF9518.
The 5GHz band WiFi has also been upgraded to dual antennas, and the maximum download rate can reach 866Mbps of the mainstream flagship.
The system has also become the iQOO Monster UI, a set of UI improved based on the Funtouch OS. The main improvement lies in the icon of the UI, which has little change in functionality.
From the perspective of internal upgrade, iQOO 5G is not just an external 5G baseband, on the contrary, it has upgraded many pain points, used the mainstream IMX582 sensor this year, and returned to the traditional strength of HiFi, upgraded the Snapdragon 855 Plus processor, and also kept up with the mainstream flash memory of UFS3.0 in the second half of the year. It has to be said that these upgrades are real experience improvements, It also makes the iQOO series more competitive. Due to limited time, the author has not used 5G network and this phone in depth, so please look forward to a more detailed evaluation of this phone.
