iQOO Neo 10

Design and Build

Regardless of sporting a ginormous 7000mAh battery, the iQOO Neo 10 boasts a lean body with only 8.09mm thin and weighing at 206 grams. It's using a plastic frame, as per our assumed calculations to also remain light in cost. This supposed design fits perfectly with what can be envisioned with iQOO's sports- and space-futuristic outlook, more especially targeting youthful followers and cell gaming enthusiasts.


It also has an IP65 rating, providing dust and low-pressure water spray resistance — perfect for practical applications.


Display

The iQOO Neo 10 boasts a beautiful 6.78-inch 1.5K resolution TCL C9+ OLED screen with support for 120Hz refresh rate and 2000 nits peak brightness (HBM). For gaming, streaming, or simply browsing social media, buttery smooth interactions and dazzling visuals await.

  • 4320Hz PWM dimming provides less eye strain when used for extended periods.

  • Schott Diamond Shield glass protection provides an added layer of ruggedness.

With this display configuration, iQOO is trying to compete with or improve upon the display quality of significantly more costly smartphones.


Performance

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor is at the core of the iQOO Neo 10, a just-released flagship-grade chipset based on the latest fabrication technology. The processor is complemented by:

  • Adreno 825 GPU for outstanding graphics rendering,

  • LPDDR5x RAM for rapid multitasking, and

  • UFS 4.0 storage for lightning-fast data access and app loading times.

Whether it is gaming at high levels, video editing, or AI-based applications, the iQOO Neo 10 can do it all with ease.


Camera Setup

The iQOO Neo 10 has a dual-camera configuration at the rear:

  • 50MP Sony LYT600 main sensor – guarantees crisp, color-precise photos,

  • 8MP auxiliary sensor – most likely an ultra-wide or depth sensor.

To capture selfies and video calls, there is a 16MP front camera arranged in a punch-hole setup positioned at the center.

Camera connoisseurs can look forward to night mode, portrait mode, HDR, and AI benefits to make phone photography even better.



Battery and Charging

One of the most standout features of the iQOO Neo 10 is its gargantuan 7000mAh battery an amazing achievement, particularly when you realize that the device is only slightly over 8mm thick.


But what makes it even more impressive is the 120W wired charging. iQOO states that this configuration can top up the device from 0 to 100% in less than 25 minutes, rendering battery anxiety a thing of the past. Perfect for power users, gamers, and travelers alike, the Neo 10 means you're never out of juice for long.


Gaming and Multimedia

With the Adreno 825 GPU, X-axis linear motor for haptics, and dual stereo speakers with LDAC and LHDC 5.0 support, the iQOO Neo 10 provides a rich and immersive gaming and multimedia experience.


Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, and NFC raise the connectivity standards of the phone. The presence of an IR blaster also allows remote control of compatible appliances a welcome and unusual addition.


Security and Software

The iQOO Neo 10 runs on the latest Android 15, which means users get access to the newest privacy features, AI improvements, and UI optimizations from day one. The phone also includes:

  • An optical in-display fingerprint scanner,

  • Advanced face unlock, and

  • Likely three years of software support, based on iQOO’s recent track record.



Connectivity Features

The phone supports a robust range of connectivity options:

  • Wi-Fi 7/6/5 for next-gen wireless speed and reliability,
