The Z9x became official in China last month under the Vivo sub-brand iQOO, and it appears that India will soon get the phone. Pricing for spare parts for the Z9x is already listed on Vivo’s Indian website, indicating that the device will soon be launched there. The RAM/storage combinations that will be available in India are also displayed here: 4/128GB, 6/128GB, and 8/128GB.

The vivo T3x, which debuted in India in mid-April at INR 13,499 (about $161 or €151 given the current currency rates), is identical to the iQOO Z9x. And by identical, you mean that the insides of the gadget are exactly the same, with the camera island’s shape being the only change. Nevertheless, the real cameras are located in the same locations, so once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

Thus, the iQOO Z9x (as well as the Vivo T3x) features an 8 MP selfie camera, a 6,000 mAh battery that supports 44W rapid wired charging, a 6.72-inch 120 Hz IPS LCD touchscreen with 1,000-nit peak brightness, and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor at its core. It is powered by Android 14, with Funtouch OS 14 installed on top in India.
