The iQoo Z3 will be a mid-range 5G phone powered by the Snapdragon 768G chipset. The processor has secured over 450k points in the AnTuTu benchmark. The device also supports an extended RAM feature which means the phone utilized the existing ROM to use as RAM. For instance, the 8GB LPDD4x RAM on the iQoo Z3 will act as 11GB(8GB + 3GB). On paper, the Snapdragon 768G is more powerful than the Snapdragon 750G and 732G.
