The iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro and OnePlus Ace 3V represent compelling options in the increasingly competitive mid-to-high range smartphone market. While both leverage Qualcomm's Snapdragon platform, they target slightly different priorities: the iQOO prioritizes raw processing power with the newer 8s Gen 4, while the OnePlus focuses on a balanced experience with the 7+ Gen 3. This comparison dissects their key differences to determine which device delivers the best value.
🏆 Quick Verdict
For users prioritizing peak performance and the fastest charging speeds, the iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro is the clear winner. Its Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 offers a significant performance advantage, and the 120W charging is substantially faster than the Ace 3V’s 100W. However, the OnePlus Ace 3V provides a refined experience with a more efficient chipset.

Display Comparison
Neither device's display specifications are provided, so we must infer. Given the price points, both likely feature AMOLED panels with at least 120Hz refresh rates. However, the iQOO, positioned as a performance-focused device, may prioritize a higher peak brightness for better outdoor visibility. OnePlus typically focuses on color accuracy, so the Ace 3V might offer more refined color calibration. The absence of LTPO information suggests neither phone will have dynamically variable refresh rates for maximum power saving.
Camera Comparison
Without specific camera sensor details, a direct comparison is difficult. However, given the iQOO’s focus on performance, it may prioritize a larger main sensor for better low-light performance. Both phones likely employ similar image processing techniques, leaning towards vibrant, social media-friendly results. The absence of telephoto lenses on either device suggests a focus on general-purpose photography rather than zoom capabilities. Any 2MP macro lenses included would likely be of limited utility.
Performance
The core difference lies in the chipsets. The iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 (4nm) boasts a Cortex-X4 prime core clocked at 3.21 GHz, alongside three Cortex-A720 cores at 3.0 GHz, two at 2.8 GHz, and two efficiency cores at 2.0 GHz. This configuration is designed for sustained peak performance. The OnePlus Ace 3V utilizes the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 (4nm) with a Cortex-X4 at 2.8 GHz, four A720 cores at 2.6 GHz, and three A520 cores at 1.9 GHz. While the 7+ Gen 3 is a very capable chip, the 8s Gen 4’s higher clock speeds and core configuration translate to a noticeable advantage in CPU-intensive tasks and gaming. The iQOO’s likely faster LPDDR5x RAM further enhances its performance edge.
Battery Life
The iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro’s 120W wired charging is a standout feature, achieving a 50% charge in just 15 minutes and a full charge in 33 minutes. The OnePlus Ace 3V’s 100W charging, while still fast, takes 26 minutes to reach 100%. While battery capacity isn’t specified, the iQOO’s faster charging mitigates any potential disadvantage from a slightly smaller battery. The iQOO also supports 100W PD and PPS, offering wider compatibility with chargers and accessories, and includes reverse wired charging.
Buying Guide
Buy the vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro if you need uncompromising gaming performance, frequently engage in demanding tasks like video editing, or value the absolute fastest charging available. Buy the OnePlus Ace 3V if you prefer a more balanced device with excellent efficiency, a potentially more polished software experience (typical of OnePlus), and a slightly more manageable thermal profile during sustained loads.
Frequently Asked Questions
❓ Will the iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro overheat during extended gaming sessions?
The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 is a powerful chip, and while efficient, it will generate more heat than the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3. The iQOO likely incorporates cooling solutions, but prolonged, demanding gaming may lead to some thermal throttling. However, the faster processing power will likely still result in higher average frame rates even with some throttling.
❓ Is the 100W charging on the OnePlus Ace 3V still considered fast charging?
Absolutely. 100W charging is still exceptionally fast and will fully charge the device in under 30 minutes. While not as rapid as the iQOO’s 120W, it’s more than sufficient for most users and provides a convenient top-up speed.
❓ Does the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 in the OnePlus Ace 3V support advanced gaming features like ray tracing?
The Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 does offer some support for advanced gaming features, but its ray tracing capabilities are less robust than those found in flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chips. Expect a good gaming experience, but don't anticipate console-level ray tracing effects.
