iQOO Neo 10: Features that stand out
As the years progress, iQOO is tweaking its smartphone lineup to cater to more people and not just gamers. The latest iQOO 5G mobile phones come packed with features that cater to different types of users. The recently launched Neo 10 is a classic example of this changing strategy. This handset is a powerful mid-range smartphone that comes with all you need to balance power with affordability. Here’s a thorough review of various Neo 10 5G features:
A sleek look with a massive battery
The iQOO Neo 10 packs a massive 7,000 mAh battery that can easily power up to one and a half days of use, even with the most demanding tasks. For users who engage in low to mild usage, this powerful battery can even last up to two whole days! The Neo 10 also provides 120 W fast-charging support to help you top up quickly when you are low on power. What’s more is that just 19 minutes of charging time gives you 50% of power to last through hours of scrolling, gaming, and binge-watching.
While several phones pack a large battery today, the true goal is to pack power but keep dimensions light. The iQOO Neo 10 nails this aspect with its stellar sleek design. Despite a sizable battery, the phone manages to maintain a thickness of 8.09 mm and a weight of 206 g. Thanks to the even weight distribution, you feel zero fatigue while using the phone for extended periods. The overall design feels sturdy, with a touch of premium feel. The IP65-rated dust and water-resistant body of the handset is available in two shades: Inferno Red and Titanium Chrome.
Super-fluid display
The iQOO Neo 10 features a 6.78-inch AMOLED display to render true-to-life frames for games, movies, and more. This display boasts a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, meaning you can easily read texts and emails without squinting even under the summer’s bright noon sun rays. The 144Hz adaptive refresh rate of the display dynamically adapts to the content being viewed. This results in jitter-free and smooth interactions. The device comes with HDR playback support to instantly upscale your binge-watching and gaming sessions to hi-res frames.
This stellar display is a dream for gamers. You can play demanding games like BGMI and Call of Duty with high graphics and frame rate settings without any performance compromises or lag. Moreover, unlike regular gaming-focused handsets, this iQOO 5G mobile phone does not generate excess heat during gaming sessions to ensure player comfort.
A solid gaming performance and more
The iQOO Neo 10 delivers an exceptional gaming experience. The brand claims that this smartphone has received the seal of approval from the top E-Sports teams in the country. In reality, this mobile phone does more than just game, much like most of the iQOO 5G mobile phones launched in recent months. The Neo 10 runs on Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, which clocks up to 3.21GHz to perform as a solid all-rounder. Built on the 4 nm process technology, this chipset is both powerful and efficient.
This latest octa-core processor is paired with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage to ensure it glides through multitasking chores, hi-res video playback, and heavy gaming. iQOO has also included its in-house supercomputing Q1 chip on this device. This Q1 chip, plus the 7K Ultra VC cooling system, keeps the thermal output minimal during intensive usage. The Q1 chip also takes care of 1.5K super-resolution renders in games and supports 144 fps to enhance your gameplay experiences.
The portrait specialist
Like most recently launched iQOO 5G mobile phones, the Neo 10 also brings camera improvements that elevate your captures. The phone features a 50MP Sony portrait sensor (f/1.79) with an 8MP ultra-wide lens (f/2.2) at the back. On the front, the Neo 10 gets a 32MP selfie shooter with a f/2.45 aperture.
In daylight, the 50MP sensor captures sharp and detailed shots with accurate colour balance and vibrant colour reproduction. iQOO has also introduced the new NICE algorithm to help further fine-tune shots through computational deblurring. This ace portrait lens shines in terms of edge detection and soft Bokeh effects, rendering picture-perfect portrait shots. In fact, the Super Night Mode onboard helps the camera perform well even in tricky lighting settings, with well-balanced exposure, fine details, and minimal noise.
Verdict: A value for money device
Overall, the iQOO Neo 10 offers a massive battery, smooth display, flagship-level performance, and a strong camera set-up, all at an affordable price. If we were to comment on the price-to-feature balance, the Neo 10 offers a good equilibrium that cannot be ignored, especially if you are looking for a gaming device within Rs. 35K. In short, if you are looking for a reliable gaming smartphone in the mid-range segment or simply a trustworthy all-rounder, you should consider the Neo 10.
