iQOO is a sub-brand of Vivo that focuses on gaming smartphones. The iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro are its latest flagship smartphones, and they both offer excellent performance and features. However, there are some key differences between the two devices.
Design and Display
The iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro have similar designs, with large displays and metal frames. However, the iQOO 12 Pro has a slightly larger display at 6.78 inches, compared to 6.56 inches for the iQOO 12. Both displays have a 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate, making them ideal for gaming.
The iQOO 12 Pro also has a slightly higher-resolution display, with a pixel density of 393ppi compared to 381ppi for the iQOO 12. However, this difference is unlikely to be noticeable in everyday use.
Performance
Both the iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro are powered by the Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset, which is one of the fastest mobile chipsets on the market. They also have up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. This means that both devices can handle any task you throw at them, including the most demanding games.
However, the iQOO 12 Pro has a slight edge in terms of performance thanks to its larger heat dissipation system. This means that it can run demanding games for longer periods of time without overheating.
Cameras
The iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro have similar camera setups, with a triple-lens rear camera system and a single-lens front camera. The rear camera system consists of a 50MP main sensor, a 13MP ultrawide sensor, and a 2MP macro sensor. The front camera is a 16MP sensor.
The iQOO 12 Pro has a slight edge in terms of camera quality thanks to its larger main sensor and its dedicated gimbal stabilization. This means that it can take better photos and videos in low light and low-light conditions.
Battery and Charging
The iQOO 12 has a 4400mAh battery, while the iQOO 12 Pro has a 4500mAh battery. Both devices support 65W fast charging, so you can quickly charge them up when needed.
However, the iQOO 12 Pro has a slight edge in terms of battery life thanks to its larger battery and its more efficient display.
Other Features
Both the iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro come with a variety of other features, such as in-display fingerprint scanners, stereo speakers, and 5G connectivity. However, the iQOO 12 Pro has a few additional features, such as a dedicated gaming mode, a physical shoulder trigger, and a more advanced cooling system.
Pricing
The iQOO 12 starts at ₹62,990, while the iQOO 12 Pro starts at ₹69,990. This means that the iQOO 12 Pro is ₹7,000 more expensive than the iQOO 12.
The iQOO 12 and iQOO 12 Pro are both excellent smartphones, but the iQOO 12 Pro is the better choice for gamers and power users. It has a slightly larger display, better performance, better camera quality, and a longer battery life. However, it is also ₹7,000 more expensive than the iQOO 12.
If you are looking for the best possible performance and features, then the iQOO 12 Pro is the way to go. However, if you are on a budget, then the iQOO 12 is still a great option.
