Price, specifications, pros and cons (vivo iQOO Z11)

What Are the Pros and Cons of the vivo iQOO Z11?

Pros

• A huge battery is the star of the device: a 9020mAh Si/C battery with 90W wired charging (50% in 37 minutes), 7.5W reverse wired, and bypass charging, one of the largest batteries on the market.
• An excellent display with high brightness and a high refresh rate: a 6.83-inch AMOLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate, 2160Hz PWM dimming, HDR support, 2000-nit (HBM) and 5000-nit (peak) brightness, and 1260 x 2800 resolution at 450 ppi density.
• A main camera with optical stabilization: a 50MP main camera with an f/1.8 aperture, a 1/1.95" sensor, PDAF, and OIS, plus a 32MP selfie camera, with 4K video at 30fps.
• Durability and extra perks: IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance (resistant to high-pressure water jets and immersible up to 1.5m for 30 minutes), plus stereo speakers with 24-bit/192kHz Hi-Res audio, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, an under-display optical fingerprint sensor, and modern software with Android 16 and Origin OS 6.0.

Cons

• The chipset drew clear criticism: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, with a user in the comments explicitly noting they would have preferred the Dimensity 8500 (found in the Chinese version), considering the price high for this chip.
• There is no memory card slot: the device has no card slot, and the storage is UFS 3.1 rather than the latest. There is also no 3.5mm headphone jack and no FM radio.
• The USB port is dated: USB Type-C 2.0, and the secondary camera is decorative: an auxiliary lens alongside the main that adds no real imaging value. The phone is also relatively heavy at 213 grams due to the large battery.
