While Vivo is gearing up to introduce its camera-centric Vivo X50 series in a couple of weeks, it's gaming-centric brand iQOO has debuted its newest flagship in China today. Called the iQOO Z1, it's the world's first smartphone powered by the latest MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ chipset. The device also includes a punch-hole, 48MP triple camera system, and super-fast wired charging.

iQOO Z1: Specs and Features

iQOO Z1 features a 6.57-inch Full-HD+ IPS LCD display with a 20:9 aspect ratio, 90.4% screen-to-body ratio, and most importantly, a 144Hz refresh rate. The display has HDR10 support and iQOO gives users the option to switch between 90Hz, 120Hz, and 144Hz refresh rate within the software.

There's a punch-hole cutout at the top right and it houses a 16MP (f/2.0) selfie camera. iQOO Z1 also comes equipped with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner that doubles as a power button.

Moving to the internals, the recently launched MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ chipset runs the show under the hood. You will have up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of built-in storage onboard as well. The device is backed by Android 10-based iQOO UI out-of-the-box.
