The iQOO Z5x is powered by the Dimensity 900 SoC, which supports up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The smartphone ships with the Android 11-based OriginOS 1.0 operating system and the virtual RAM functionality, which allows you to virtually extend RAM by up to 1.5GB on the 6GB RAM variation and up to 4GB on the 8GB RAM model.
The Z5x features a five-layer liquid cooling system for long-term performance, as well as Wi-Fi 6 and 5G connection.
