vivo iQOO 3
It might be slow nd often overshadowed, but the expansion of the mobile gaming niche is definitely strong and steady. Thankfully, we’re now past the point of just slapping a “gaming” badge on any old handset and calling it a day.
Catering to a demanding crowd takes actual innovation and tangible improvements. Something that is often hard to balance with a sensible price tag, as made painfully obvious by ultimate devices, like the Asus ROG Phone II.

A tough challenge for sure, but not an insurmountable one. Vivo’s iQOO sub-brand has been trying its best to achieve just that over the last year or so. The iQOO 3 is the latest product in the line. We had the pleasure of getting some hands-on time with it at today’s India launch event and already have a few early impressions to share.
