The iQOO Z10x is a battery-focused 5G phone that pairs a large 6500mAh cell with the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset. It measures 8.1 mm thick, weighs 204 g and comes in Ultramarine and Titanium. The phone carries an IP64 rating for dust and splash protection, and it was released in India on April 11, 2025, in 6GB + 128GB, 8GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB versions.
Its 6.72-inch IPS LCD display has a 1080 x 2408 resolution, around 393 PPI and a 120Hz refresh rate. A 240Hz touch sampling rate helps games and scrolling feel responsive, and 1050 nits of brightness is listed in high brightness mode. The selfie camera sits in a punch-hole cut-out. As an LCD panel, it will not match the deep blacks of AMOLED screens, but Full HD+ resolution keeps text and videos sharp.
Performance comes from the Dimensity 7300, an octa-core chip with four Cortex-A78 cores at 2.5GHz and four Cortex-A55 cores at 2.0GHz, paired with the Mali-G615 MC2 GPU. LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage are listed, and up to 6GB or 8GB of extra virtual RAM can be added depending on the model. This combination is well suited to multitasking, social media and popular games at moderate settings.
The rear camera setup pairs a 50MP f/1.8 main camera with a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor and an LED flash, and it can record 4K video. Modes include Night, Portrait, Pro, Documents, Slo-mo, Time-lapse and Live Photo. The 8MP front camera records 1080p video at 30fps and offers Night Scene, Portrait, Double Exposure and Dual-view Video modes.
The 6500mAh battery supports 44W Flash Charge and reverse charging, and a charger and phone case are listed in the box. The phone runs Android 15 with Funtouch OS 15. Connectivity includes 5G, dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 with aptX HD and USB-C, along with an IR blaster for controlling home appliances. A side-mounted fingerprint sensor and face unlock handle security, while FM radio is not supported.
The iQOO Z10x is aimed at buyers who want long battery life and dependable performance more than a premium display or camera.
Battery life is its biggest strength. A 6500mAh cell should easily get most users through a full day of heavy use, and often into a second day with lighter use. 44W charging with the charger in the box keeps top-ups reasonably quick, and reverse charging lets the phone act as a backup power source for earbuds or another phone.
The Dimensity 7300 is a meaningful step above the entry-level chips found in many budget phones. Paired with UFS 3.1 storage, it should keep apps opening quickly and handle popular games smoothly at sensible settings. Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4 and an IR blaster are useful everyday extras, and IP64 adds protection against dust and rain splashes.
The compromises are in the display and cameras. The 120Hz IPS LCD is sharp and smooth, but it lacks the contrast and richness of AMOLED panels found on some rivals. The camera setup is basic, with a 2MP depth sensor instead of an ultra-wide lens, no listed OIS and an 8MP selfie camera. At 204 g it is also on the heavier side, and memory card support and a headphone jack are not listed.
Overall, the iQOO Z10x suits students, travellers and heavy users who want a reliable phone with excellent battery life and solid performance. The 8GB + 128GB variant offers the best balance, while the 8GB + 256GB model suits those who store more media. Buyers who prioritise photography or an AMOLED display should compare it with more camera-focused or AMOLED-equipped alternatives.
