As we know iQOO will be launching its Neo 9 pro smartphone in India today and you can watch the live stream on iQOO YouTube channel. For gamers this phone is a delight, because it packs with Snapdragon 8 gen 2 processor which has great performance and handles heat efficiently. The most exciting part is the price that phone is launched the base variant of 8GB + 128GB is close to 30K. IQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with dual tone Vegan leather design which looks fantastic and variant comes with black color but with glass back.

iQOO Neo 9 Pro Review:

The iQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with a weight of 192 g, which is quite impressive because it has a battery capacity of 5160 mAh. The weight distribution on the smartphone is very good. The overall in-hand feel is impressive due to the dual-tone vegan leather at the back, and it has schott Xensation protection, which is basically glass protection provided by iQOO. The phone also comes with an IR blaster, which is placed at the top of the phone.

Now, let’s talk about display. The iQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display with 1.5K. The phone has a 144Hz refresh rate, but only for gaming in normal use; it will be 120Hz. You can use 144Hz while playing CODM, i.e., Call of Duty Mobile. The phone has 2160 PWM dimming, which is very good as PWM dimming, a method used in phone screens to control brightness, is crucial in addressing concerns about screen flicker sensitivity.

The iQOO Neo 9 Pro has a peak brightness of 3000 nits, which is quite high compared to its price, and 1400 nits HBM. For media consumers like Netflix, there is good news: iQOO does support HDR10+.

Gaming:

Gaming on the iQOO Neo 9 Pro is phenomenal as it supports 144Hz CODM play smoothly, and it also runs BGMI flawlessly; you will not see any lag or frame drops. While playing Genshin Impact, we get an FPS of 59, which is pretty good. So if you are thinking of buying a gaming smartphone, then this phone is for you.

Processor and AnTuTu score:

The iQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with the last year’s flagship chipset, i.e., the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, which is a powerful processor and can handle any task seamlessly. The AnTuTu score of the iQOO Neo 9 Pro is around 1.6 million, which might be the highest for SD 8 Gen 2.

The throttling test on the iQOO Neo 9 Pro is also good; it is around 86 percent, generally above 80 percent, which we consider a good throttling score.

Q1 chip

iQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with a supercomputing chip Q1, what it does is upscale the media for e.g., 720p will be upscale 900p; this will also work on Netflix and Amazon Prime. This chip’s powerful graphics processing capabilities guarantee fluid and engaging visuals for multimedia, gaming, and graphics-intensive applications. Its architecture also facilitates dependable and quick data transport, which improves system responsiveness overall. So if you are into gaming and media consumption, this phone is for you.

Other specs:

The iQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with dual speakers, which is good at this price point. Whether you are gaming or watching Netflix, you won’t be disappointed by the music output. The phone comes with Android 14 out of the box and has its own skin, Fun touch OS, which is pretty impressive. It depends on users; some users also dislike it, but in my opinion, it’s a good skin.

Though it has some flaws, like hot apps and hot games, I am glad to tell you that this phone does not have hot apps or hot games. The phone will also have 3 year of android updates and 4 year of security updates, which is ok in my opinion but iQOO do need to consider 7 year of updates like google and Samsung,

We get all basic sensors, and has 5G support, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3. The phone does not support NFC.

The base variant (128GB) of the phone comes with UFS 3.1, but the 256GB variant comes with UFS 4.0. This phone also supports virtual RAM up to 8GB and 12GB, depending on which variant you are buying. If you are buying the 8GB variant, you will get 8GB of virtual RAM, and if you are buying the 12GB variant, you will get 12GB of virtual RAM.

Camera:

The phone come with dual camera setup with main camera with 50mp and secondary camera with 8 MP which is ultrawide and also have a selfie camera with 16MP. With back camera you can shoot 4K @30 FPS Night video which is quite impressive.

Variants and price:

IQOO Neo 9 Pro comes with 8GB+128GB at Rs. 33,999, 8GB+ 256gb at Rs. 34,999 and 12GB +256Gb at Rs. 36,999. Bank offers are also available so check that before buying. A lit bit of caution that base variant 8GB+128GB will not be available this month it will be available from march.

sales starts from 23rd Feb 12P.M for all users and pre book users can buy from 22nfd Feb.

Conclusion:

This phone offers a lot more than its price, and I would recommend you buy this smartphone if you are looking to buy one. Users should buy the one with 8GB + 256GB variant. In this, you will get UFS 4.0, and 8GB of RAM is sufficient for users and for gaming users I can say there will be no problem with the 8GB variant butย  If you want to go higher, feel free to go for the higher variant.
