iQOO has unveiled its new iQOO Z9s and Z9s Pro smartphones. Although they seem to be closely related, they look different.
The styling of the iQOO Z9s Pro has been enhanced by a large, almost square camera frame, while the iQOO Z9s has an oval frame. However, both have the same camera modules - 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 with optical image stabilization and a ring LED. The other cameras are different, however - where the Pro has an 8-megapixel wide-angle camera, the iQOO Z9s has a 2-megapixel background blur. On the other hand, the displays are the same, AMOLED, with a 6.67-inch diagonal, Full HD+ resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate, and curved sides. The screens differ in maximum brightness, however - from 1800 nits at the base, to 4500 nits in the Pro. 16-megapixel selfie cameras and under-screen fingerprint readers are once again common features.
