iQOO 11 is set to launch in India and the handset will take on OnePlus 11. Here are the features that the latter misses out on in comparison to the former.
2023 has kicked off with the battle of the elevens. While OnePlus 11 was unveiled as the brand’s new flagship just a few days back, it is now the turn of the iQOO 11 to take centre stage as the handset is set to launch in India. Both phones are aiming to furnish buyers with a premium experience and comparisons are hence bound to happen. One quick look at these phones’ specs though and it’s clear that the scales are tilting in the favour of the iQOO 11. In fact, we’ve identified a few distinctly important departments where the phone has an upper hand over the OnePlus 11. Let us elaborate more.
The race is not at all tight when it comes to display as the iQOO 11 flexes its muscles clearly in this department. On its front rests a 6.78-inch E6 AMOLED display with a 2K resolution. That makes it the first phone in India to grab such a panel, promising an immersive experience like never before. The main benefit of this attribute is that the display’s peak brightness can reach a whopping 1,800 nits, enabling stunning HDR results. In contrast, the OnePlus 11’s E4 AMOLED display maxes out at 1,300 nits. Notably, the E6 panel offers 25 percent reduction in power consumption over the E4 panel, which would effectively enable a longer battery life by the handset as well.
What’s more, the iQOO 11 also grabs a higher refresh rate than the OnePlus 11. Its panel offers refresh rate of up to 144Hz and has an edge over the 120Hz display offered by the OnePlus device. iQOO tells us that its display offers a 25 percent reduction in blue light for a more pleasant viewing experience. Moreover, there’s ample protection for this display thanks to the presence of Gorilla Glass Victus on it. For those who demand the absolute best visuals from their smartphones, the iQOO 11 is indeed the way to go.
As we said, both the handsets feature the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip but that doesn’t mean they offer similar gaming performance. Even little things make a huge difference in the gaming sphere and that’s where the benefits of iQOO’s V2 chip come into the picture. Equipped with 45MB SRAM, it delivers superior image processing and AI computing. This translates to something called Game Frame Interpolation, which can help you get higher frame rates in select games where 60fps or 90fps is the maximum setting.
