Considering how iQoo used to be a gaming brand, seeing how it matures with great chipset, great triple cameras, great battery and charging and all for RM3399, it's probably better than buying flagship phones as of now. You do get everything that you need for less. Unless you need those specific features, this is the best value Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 device as of now.
I agree with U. If iqoo makes their phones to be gaming phones look, they will fall into the niche category like ROG phone, or red magic. Those phones sales very poor 😅
U r right 🙌
(& I saw you at technick too😅)
I've already ordered my Vivo iqoo 12. I had iqoo 9 pro and was my greatest phone experience.
Pls let me know your gaming experience after 2 months, fps, last long? Heating?
Can't agree more. For a RM3399 price range all-rounder,better than other brands's flagship now
I used IQOO 9 Pro for over a year and the phone has never disappointed. They make such great looking phones and the 12 is no different. Looks impressive and specs are great too!
How about their software update ? Is it reliable with fast OS updates?
yaa man 3years software and 4year security updates

are iqoo devices long lasting??
Absolutely. My IQOO 9 Pro is still going strong without any performance issues@@anuragghosh2582
Moving from iqoo7 sd870 to iqoo 12. Iqoo7 was great phone for me.hardcore gaming
It is the best value smartphone right now at the flagship level. Both specs, price, camera and gameplay.
Wow just came here after finishing the incredible video by green dot aviation on Malaysian flight mh370. & you used Malaysia in the first few seconds what a coincidence.
Solid looking phone from iQOO. Too bad the brand isn’t popular enough. Otherwise more people would choose it as their choice of phone. Most ppl would buy mainstream brands even if the specs aren’t that good.
Be better if they didn't limit their market, I don't understand why they don't do a global version, I'm in the UK and it's virtually impossible to get, apart from getting a Chinese one and hoping that it gets here and isn't faulty.
I bought iqoo z7 5g recently. So far iqoo brand no complain only that sometimes not detect 5g and have to restart phone
Iq has amazing build quality, I have dropped my iqoo7 legend a lot of times and except for the back glass rest everything is in flawless condition. I feel they need to focus on battery durability, I'm a heavy user and the battery life went for a toss after the 1 year or so and I had to change it. I also have my older phone realme x 2 pro and that is built to survive it's almost 3+ years old and still catches up with the 888 processor and battery is still running strong and never been repaired
Still using realme X2 pro now, I've been using it 3 years now, going 4 next July
are iqoo devices long lasting?
@@anuragghosh2582 the build quality and performance is very very good but like I said the battery may need replacement by the 2nd year. I just bought the iqoo 12 and it's a beast
I put my 5g sim in a demo iqoo 12, so i could compare speed test results to my existing phone running qualcomm snapdragon 888 (2 generation old). To my surprise download speed was 2/3 my existing phone. Upload speed was 2x my existing phone.
Ive just noticed this tech reviewer is getting better and better. He meets all my expectations throughout the video. Keep it up bro.
He obviously needs to improve on replying to comments
Damn good cameras. The pics loom as good as other more expensive flagships 😊😊
I'm a fan from Johor, I really appreciate Lim's video footage for showcasing the products.It's so clean and excellently presented.
Love it, Keep it up bro. 👌
Lim tu dorang mmg setup clean video lain sume mcam tu sbb tu I pon suka tgk.
Bruh these generational benchmark score leaps are crazy compare to the previous chipsets. SD 888 scoring 1M before and now this SD 8 gen 3 scores 2M already doubling the power. Compare to previous gens like SD 855,860,870 the gaps were close to antutu benchmark just ranging from 500K,600k,700K score only 100k difference but now its a million difference.
Best budget flagship for now
Didn't expect this to outscore Xiaomi 14 Pro in benchmarks. I heard they are using higher spec ram.
Vivo is good at customed chips and ram .
Love your review as usual pertaining to a daily user which utilizes the phone and explain quite brief yet informative towards the phone pro's and con's ! Very organize and suitable for user who needs review of the phone!
Really good price if you compare to Samsung or Oppo, they will probably charge rm4k and above 😅
I have the red version and it's awesome! 😎
Any problem till date?
That is Really Impressive ❤
Watching on my new IQ0012 Legend😮 it's a awesome man and belive me far better than one plus 12, iphone 13, iPhone 14 and iPhone 15🥰 you can say that the ultimate King is IQ0012🥰👑😘💪🔥💥
Hearing that the 8 Gen 3 can last that long gaming on a midrange game (to mobile standard) without any heat complaints is a strong selling point. Also being able to force Genshin (without needing an iPhone) to 144hz is pretty sick. Any software OS stuff I should know?
Yes. Funtouch UI is pretty much the worst i have used. I use an iqoo neo 7 pro.
Trust me its too bad, even small tasks suck such as turn on wifi from notifications, or connect to Bluetooth without opening the full Bluetooth from settings.
Front video is unstablised 1080p, some of the worst on any flagship from the past few years.
Solid review bro really like your way of presenting which is straight to the point. Question I have however is if we should wait for x100 vivo to arrive as it seems quite similar.
Vivo x100 series have a little better than Iqoo 12
Flagship killer 🔥
Rm3399 is a lot of $$$ it's not a flagship killer. I will rather get the xiaomi 13T pro..with awesome camera Lim just reviews not long ago about xiaomi 13T pro Rm 2650
@@sam-5757for it's price range it's probably the best flagship and ofc the best value flagship
13T pro has bad battery drain and GPS issues. @@sam-5757
I prefer the black over white. Black looks cleaner without the m logo.
Can you please compare this with Vivo x100 Pro camera?
Iqoo 12 or vivo x100 pro, which one is best all rounder?
I play games, but just occasionally maybe 2-3 hours a day. I'm not photographer, but still taking snaps here and there especially when on trip.
IMO, Iqoo is great, but there's nothing too stand out. Yeah, SD8gen3 is great and fast, but so is D9300
Just consider u like more on flat or curve screen
X100 has waaay better camera
x100 for camera , iqoo for gaming.
Excellent video, how many years of update does it have? What do you recommend in terms of camera and power, this one or the nubia z60 ultra
Hi Lim I'm watching your video 😊 wow Iqoo 12 👍🏻
Nice video, please make video on front camera both indoor and outdoor image quality
Great, will look for it instead of xiaomi 13t pro.
Hopefully you'll test the iQOO 12 Pro as well 😊
nice review, i saw your review for xiami 14 to , IQOO 12 if compare camera with Xiaomi 14 pro which one is better? maybe with OnePlus 12 , cos for price all of them almost the same and chipset also same , that will help people , especially me 🤣 for more easily to choose with phone to buy , thank before 🙏
Yeah , I agree with you. I'm looking at Honor Magic 5pro too. Currently seat at RM3499 as of writing. I wonder which is better value. I'm more of a camera person
@@vincentwong9584 yeah and for camera that a lot for new phone too with same chipset and different co engineering , like Xiaomi 14 with Leica , OnePlus with HASSELBLAD , vivo x100 with ZEISS(mediatek 9300)
Yep, that's an interesting question, I'm in the same position and I guess thousands are in the same situation.
Same😂
Please notice @Lim Reviews
Just bought iqoo 12 , because I think is the best money for value phone at the moment . Looking forward to use it
Really want to see your take on oppo find x7 and oneplus 12
Is an Iqoo12 periscope way better than Oppo Reno 10 Pro+?? The price is almost the same if I'm not mistaken
Its almost good as S23 ultra..details are superb even in 50x
I really wished iqoo putting a 6000 mah+ battery when Promoting as a gaming phone. That would have close the deal for Asus ROG 8 and redmagic 9 pro.
Dude ROG phone is thick as hell. It's so bulky man lol
@@JosephWang-qm7md gamers don't care about it
Check the Red Magic 9 pro. Look how trimmed it is despite industry leading 6500 mah battery.
What they lack is camera and software like IQOO
He didn't mention the graphite battery used on this phone which gives a 4 year life cycle of unlimited use that will only reduce the battery life by 80℅. This phone has an unique battery life not many people knew about it
Considering of getting this phone after 8 months is probably around 35% to 40% price drop.
Iqoo 12 or xiaomi 13T pro,
please which one prefer?
Harga padu 😮 lagi murah dari iqoo11 masa dorang launch
How it compares with vivo x100 🧐
Any opinions on software support, how many years for security updates, how many OS upgrades? Does the UI have ads embedded?
3 os 4 security
In terms of software support, vivo is the best chinese phone company out there
I don't play games much but I need a strong battery, fast charging, and good photography, should I buy iqoo 12?
I think better wait x100 pro first then compare
This looks promising than that of the xiaomi 14 series and it has a dedicated Periscope lens
I have heard the image and video processing can sometimes mess up quite badly. It this something you have e personally experienced?
In terms of gaming... how does it stack with the Red Magic 9 Pro?
what's your opinion compare this phone to honor magic 5 pro?? which is better based on camera
Which is better in terms camera and gaming? Xiaomi 13t pro and iqoo 12
Hello sir, which one should I buy, the Realme GT 5 Pro or iQOO 12? Thank you.
Brother what about the speaker?
Is there better if compare with s23 ultra speaker? Or How it sound better than iphone 15pro max?
Do u think which model of Android have the best speaker in your opinion?
Thank you
Cherrie
Speaker thik nahi hai average hai
for now because once k70 pro get their launch here,they will be the cheapest 8 gen 3 phones..but i highly doubt it..k70 will come here as poco f6 pro with 8gen 2
Could somebody please advise me? I was to wait for the Xiaomi 14 Ultra to come out around Spring next year but this phone seems promising at its price range. Should I wait or purchase this one?
Hi Lim..or everyone.. pls advice choose Iqoo 12 or Magic 5 pro..
Vivo X100 better
iqoo 12
No gorilla glass screen protection is that considered huge down side ?
Also no eSim
No wireless charging
Both colors are real glass back? The matte looks a bit plasticky
did iQoo mention how long they will support OS updates?
i believe its 3 years OS , 4 years security
Op12 or iq 12????
planning to upgrade from iqoo 11 to 12 version...should i?
How many OS and Security updated that Iqoo 12 get? Thanks..
This phone has a global software or chinese software ? I mean if I import should I take care of which variant is installed ?
Gaming phone with no headphone jack and no expendable memory. What a bummer.
Buy Bluetooth Buds
Please make detailed camera review
how did u move the characters without touching the screen man? great review btw!
Wireless controller
How about its speaker?
Is it good?
Does the 144hz screen refresh rate interpolation really works with mobile legends?
When we get a video of REALME GT5 PRO
and launch date in Malesiya 😢
Do iqoo 12 vs realme gt5 pro pls
Why do they keep removing expandable storage? Yes, I know there's 1Tb but even a 256+microsd is more preferable to me. Kek.
Would you guys buy z fold 5 or iqoo 12 pro ?
Please show more picture samples on your reviews
As long as daily driving doesnt involved taking stable video from you're front camera it is ok. Otherwise, major fail.
😢Can you please review the realme Gt 5 pro and compare it with oneplus 12
Do you unbox Oneplus 12?
Only 30fps video recording front camera support?
So over this channel only saying positive and often extremely generous comments that are often enough completely opposite to every other review of phones on UA-cam .
This phone isn't light .
The camera bump isn't little .
The square edged design isn't comfortable to hold for a long time , as it's like the iPhone .
But the nice comments will keep you supplied by manufacturers .
is sound good on the device?
Does this phone comes with bypass charging?
Vivo X100 or IQOO 12 better?
X100 for photography,never buy that for gaming
@@na-donu but if buy for gaming, then can’t get a nice photography
@@EthanChey not recommend for gaming,but its your money
Bro how about camera quality?
Overheating problems?
Isn’t a part of Vivo ?
Does Iqoo12 have dolby vision and dolby atmos?
in what countries is it available?
Do iqoo have gesture sensor??
compare to oneplus12, which 1 would you choose?
do u know the price for oneplus12?
It is 61k for 12+256 and 66k for 16+512
@@MegaShifas Im Malaysian XD agak agak berapa XD

U should review meizu 21
Black of white i am very confuse.
Abg lim... better iqoo 12 ni atau honor magic 5 pro untuk pelbagai aspek?
iqoo 12..cam mlam die lawa..
Is it online exclusive?
good photos but I noticed noise but other than that they are good
Brother lim realme gt 5 coming in Malaysia onot
UA-cam video is getting delayed how to fix it
Redmi k70 vs k70 pro vs 13t pro pls!
How does the camera compare to the Xiaomi 13 and 14?
xiaomi better
Toggle switch too small and there is no way to adjust it to larger toggle.
Review the pro model
How is IQOO guarantee Android updates and security patches ?
three years of software updates and four years of security patches
First, i think. 🎉
