The lifespan decider
When specs are close, support length decides it — this is what each phone costs per month of safe use.
Category by category
The 13's screen is the better one — 6.82-inch ltpo amoled, qhd+, 1–120hz, up to 4500 nits peak.
Performance is a wash — same chip tier.
Camera systems are comparable on paper — pick by sample photos.
Battery capacities are close enough not to decide this.
The 13 is supported until Jan 2031 — 13 months longer than the iQOO 13.
Pound for pound, these two are equally good deals.
