When it tested on High Settings it decreased the FPS to 45 FPS which is not recommendable for competitive gamers. If you like competitive gaming you definitely should minimum of 60FPS gaming performance.

As we have played on Low Settings and High FPS settings, there are no lag and scratch frame drop issues and you can play it like a Pro on this. After that, I tried it live streaming on YouTube which brings slight Frame Drops, especially on clutch time but you can live stream with this phone.

Moving to Its Gyro movements, I would like to tell you that, it behaves like POCO X3 Pro. It has an excellent Gyro sensitivity and its response is awesome. Can you believe it, I have clutched the full squad 6 times in 4 times playing in BGMI. Finally, I would like to say that, this phone is excellent for gaming all the features are good for this budget.

But while comparing it with iQOO Neo 7 Pro and Redmi K50i It lags a little behind them. By the way, what is your opinion on that, can you please pin us in the comment section?
