iQOO Neo9 cheap gaming smartphone
Two types of iQOO Neo9 series will be released: iQOO Neo9 equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and iQOO Neo9 Pro equipped with MediaTek Dimensity 9300.
When you think of games, you think of Snapdragon, but the Dimensity 9300 has achieved performance and power savings that are comparable to Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and for games such as Genshin that do not properly support MediaTek, you can use 8 Gen 2. You can play with greater comfort.
Games made by Japanese manufacturers still often only take into account Snapdragon, which may be at a disadvantage in terms of graphics.
flat 144Hz display
iQOO Neo9 series is equipped with a 6.78-inch 2800 x 1260 resolution AMOLED display.
It supports LTPO 144Hz refresh rate and is also capable of 144FPS frame interpolation thanks to vivo’s proprietary Q1 chip.
The instantaneous touch sampling rate reaches 2000Hz, and the brightness is quite bright at 1400nits.
120W charging compatible battery
The battery capacity of iQOO Neo9 series is 5160mAh.
It supports 120W fast charging and can maintain over 80% battery life even after 1600 cycles.
It is said that it can charge at 100W with USB PD / PPS, so it is good that it is fast even without a dedicated charger.
Even though it is a gaming smartphone, it does not skimp on the camera.
While gaming smartphones often have poor camera performance, the iQOO Neo9 series uses the same main ultra-wide-angle camera as the higher-end model, vivo X100.
The 50MP SONY IMX920 and 50MP JN1 ultra-wide-angle camera share the same image processing algorithm, so you can probably take beautiful photos.
Protrusions are kept to a minimum.
The iQOO Neo9 costs 2,299 yuan, and the iQOO Neo9 Pro costs 2,999 yuan, which are high-performance but cheap at 40,000 yen to 60,000 yen.
