Finally, iQoo Z6 5G has made its debut in the Indian market. The smartphone is being boasted as the successor of the iQoo Z5 5G that was launched last year in the country.
We already know that iQoo Z6 5G packs a Snapdragon 695 processor. It becomes hard to digest that it is a successor of iQoo Z5 that runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor. In order to offer a cost-efficient device, iQoo Z6 5G looks more of a downgrade as compared to its predecessor.
Keeping that perspective aside, iQoo Z6 5G is going to give tough competition to other smartphones available in a similar price range. The device includes some of the best specifications, including a high refresh rate, multi rear camera system, liquid cooling system, etc.

iQoo Z6 5G's 4GB RAM variant with 128GB internal storage is available in the Indian market for Rs 13,999. Similarly, the 6GB RAM variant of the device with 128GB internal storage can be purchased for Rs 14,999.
