From RedditI didn't do a factory reset but i did a deep cleaning. But after i got 2 updates the stuttering and lag problem are solved but there is battery draining issue and heating still. Heating issue increased after a small update 3 days ago
And is there a stable update because when I play codm br today my battery went from 42 to 28 in 1 br
If you can go for Z9s Pro, it has SD chipset but Z9s is not that bad though. I've been playing Genshin Impact, COD no performance issues till now. But there is problems with new updates Battery draining, heating etc
Same my phone used to drain only 6. % after Codm after 30 minutes of 50 minutes now it's drain like 15 18% in 30 minutes to 40 minutes
Total waste of money, this phone will irritate you because it's laggy, doesn't have optimised 120fps animations and just feels very slow and problematic. The only good thing is the camera
Till PUBGM/BGMI it's okay, don't play genshin, wuthering waves, CODM or warzone mobile in it, it might run but would get laggy and cause overheating. And it won't lag after 1-2 years because it doesn't have samsung's Exynos in it, dimensity 7300 is a very good processor.
I have both the phones z9s (8/128) and z10x (8/128) both share the same chipset, same ram just z10x has better ufs storage (3.1 vs 2.2) and iqoo z9s has better display that's it ... I have noticed a lot of missing features in iqoo z10x compared z9s..
