Plenty of juice to last an entire day of heavy use

FOR HEAVY MOBILE phone users, especially today's youth who don't just multitask but megatask, battery life can indeed be a big challenge. Long hours of usage involving frequent gaming, video streaming or browsing with bright screens puts a strain on the battery, leading to faster drain. In the last couple of years, though, we have seen significant progress when it comes to modern smartphone battery longevity. Of late, handset makers are equipping their devices with higher battery capacities to keep the heavy users satisfied. IQOO Z10 5G is one such device.

Our trial unit was the 12GB+256GB variant in Glacier Silver colour, a good-looking and lightweight phone that retails for an effective price of ₹23,999. The design has a premium feel but what truly sets it apart is its slim 0.789 cm body that makes it quite handy and easy to use. The phone has a sturdy build and is rated IP65 for dust and water resistance.
