iQOO has been delivering some really promising smartphones, with the iQOO 12 being one of them. Now, the company has decided to show some love to the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 as it has unveiled the iQOO Neo9 Pro and Neo9; both phones come with impressive specs and are for those who are looking for something different.
The iQOO Neo9 series is excellent, provided you can get your hands on these devices
The iQOO Neo9 Pro features the Dimensity 9300 chipset that has managed to earn a name for itself. The phone comes with up to 16 gigs of RAM and 1TB of storage. iQOO is also using a Q1 chip along with a lot of work put inside the phone to help the device with overall gaming performance, which has become a main concern for many modern users. After all, cooling down a chip that produces heat is essential.
On the front, the iQOO Neo9 Pro offers a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED screen that is plenty bright at 1,400 nits. You are also getting support for HDR10+ and can use the phone with wet hands. On the front, there is also a 16-megapixel camera and an under-display fingerprint reader.
On the optical side, the iQOO Neo9 Pro comes with dual 50-megapixel camera sensors, with one taking the duty of a primary sensor and the other handling ultra-wide capabilities. The company claims that they are using a 360-degree antenna design that should result in a better reception. Powering the device is a 5,160 mAh battery with 120W fast charging, so you are not going to be lagging behind in that department.
If you are looking for something cheaper, then the iQOO Neo9 is the same phone but with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera. The memory configuration is also different, but everything else remains the same. The iQOO Neo9 series is available in blue, black, red, and white. You can now preorder these devices in China, and the sales are going to start on 30th December, later this month. The phones will probably not make an international debut, but we will keep you posted if iQOO changes its mind.

About the author: I have been tinkering with Android devices ever since the early days of the HTC Desire. Over time, I have grown a fondness for the ecosystem and now I cannot live without it. Although some might believe that I have sold my soul to Android, but I believe it is not the case. You can find me writing tutorials and posting guides on a number of different smartphones. When I am not writing here, I am wasting myself away in books, journals, or on Steam.
