The iQOO brand held an event today in India, for the introduction of the Neo 7 Pro smartphone. The device comes with a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, 120W charging and a 50MP main camera. If all these features look familiar, as does the design, that’s because this is the iQOO Neo7 Racing, relaunched for international audiences.
During the event, the vivo-owned brand was heavily advertised with its “dual chip power,” which has a dedicated independent game chip. Extract frames during the game; even apps limited to 90fps can be extrapolated to 120fps on the iQOO Neo 7 Pro. GPU rendering reduces power consumption and provides “consistently high frame rates for uninterrupted gaming”. The brand did not reveal any technical details about the chip on stage.
The phone has a 50MP primary camera with Samsung GN5 sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle shooter, and a 2MP macro snapper. The selfie shooter has a 16MP sensor located inside a hole.
The 6.78-inch AMOLED screen comes with Full HD+ resolution and iQOO promised a brightness of 1300 nits. It also supports 120Hz refresh rate and 2160Hz PWM and is HDR10+ certified. The only difference from Neo7 Racinf is the user interface: iQOO Neo 7 Pro comes with Funtouch 13 on Android 13.
New or not, this phone impresses with its 120W charging for its 5,000mAh battery that charges the phone from 0 to 50% in eight minutes. There’s also the largest vapor chamber ever in an iQOO smartphone to keep temperatures down, so performance or fast charging won’t hurt the device in the long run.
