Display- Feels smooth although not much colour accurate or bright only gets to 700-800 nits max at auto-brightness. Rating- 6/10


Performance- 8+ gen 1 after 2 years performs quite good combined with LPDDR5+UFS3.1 though the cooling system as they claimed 4000mm² works average at best. Rating- 8/10


Build quality- Above average since all plastic build and lower IP rating caused moisture enter to charging port and charger usb C port. Haptics are like 25k phone. Also the weight balancing isn't good 199 gms feels like 215 gms. Rating- 4/10


Speakers- Not the loudest but serves decent on clarity, treble, bass. Wish it had proper stereo speakers with Dolby atmos at 36k price. Earpiece is moderately good. Rating- 6/10


Network- Network reception has been good even in low network areas but due to software bugs have to restart device every 3-5 days it vanishes VoWifi/VoLTE all of a sudden. Rating- 7/10


Camera->This has been the underdog feature of this device. With Vivo algorithm, every lens has been suprisingly good at this range. Rating- 8.5/10


Battery->Since I use it at 60hz+Dark theme on moderate use it serves me just a day wirh 12%~ left. Good for a 5000 mAh cell and the charging is pretty fast 50% in 15 min without fast charging toggled. Rating- 8/10


Software->This is the most controversial part. I like it due to its simplification but after some time using it felt so backdated and boring  compared to other UI. Also there are quite a few bugs here and there. Rating- 6/10


Bonus- I went to their service center few months back have to say they are veey much co-operative since I had 2 years of warranty they solved my issue without a further ask. Rating- 9.5/10.


So to conclude I would purchase iQOO as next device if they provide better IP rating, better stereo speakers with Dolby atmos, inclusion of Origin OS, better haptics merged with every acrion of UI, AI call translation.
