The iQOO 9 SE clearly resembles its siblings in many ways. Sure, the design is a little different. That is true of the entire iQOO 9 trio, but the iQOO 9 SE is clearly not a completely different phone tacked onto the iQOO 9 families. While it is not the “cream of the crop” in terms of specifications and features, it is also not your typical “mid-ranger.” In terms of specs, iQOO has essentially recreated a proper flagship from a year or so ago. This a move that has a lot of potential in our opinion because, more often than not, flagship hardware is still “flagship hardware,” if that makes sense.
The phone is currently selling on Amazon for ₹ 29,990.
