When it comes to performance, it is hard to tell which of these devices will come on top as all three smartphones feature similar specifications. But it is safe to say that you are going to get the best performance out of all four handsets.
It is safe to say that the larger battery on the Xiaomi 11T Pro will help it deliver more screen on time than the other three devices. The iQOO 7 Legend, on the other hand, has the smallest battery of the three phones. Additionally, the Xiaomi 11T Pro also close to doubles the charging speed, so not only are you getting a bigger battery, but significantly faster charging as well.
In terms of the display, all four phones are pretty evenly matched. However, the OnePlus 9RT offers the highest peak brightness of the lot, while the iQOO 7 Legend boasts the highest touch sampling rate while gaming. Furthermore, the Xiaomi 11T Pro’s panel supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, while the OnePlus 9RT and iQOO 7 Legend also offer HDR10+ support.
Of the four devices on the list, the iQOO 7 Legend is the only one that ditches a gimmicky macro camera for a highly reliable camera setup. Additionally, the main cameras on the OnePlus 9RT and the iQOO 7 Legend offer OIS for better video stabilization. First off, the main camera on all four devices uses mid-tier camera sensors by Samsung and Sony, falling short of flagship-grade. Looking at their specs, we’d recommend the Xiaomi 11T Pro for photos, the OnePlus 9RT for videos, and the iQOO 7 Legend for an overall reliable camera setup.
