iQOO Neo9 Pro

Released Dec 30, 2023Phone

iQOO's Neo9 Pro is the China-market model with the Dimensity 9300, not the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 phone sold in India as the Neo 9 Pro. Announced on 27 December 2023 and on sale from 30 December, it adds an in-house Q1 gaming chip, a 6.78-inch 1.5K 144Hz LTPO AMOLED display and a 5160mAh-equivalent battery with 120W charging. It started at CNY 2,999 for 12GB/256GB.

Pros

  • MediaTek Dimensity 9300 with a 4+4 all-big-core CPU, LPDDR5X RAM, UFS 4.0 storage and iQOO's in-house Q1 gaming chip
  • 6.78-inch 2800x1260 LTPO AMOLED with 1-144Hz adaptive refresh and a rated 1,400-nit peak brightness
  • 50MP Sony IMX920 1/1.49-inch main camera with OIS, a 50MP ultra-wide and 8K video recording

  • 6,043mm² vapor chamber cooling and a 7.99mm-thin glass body in the black and blue finishes

Cons

  • China-market launch with no US price; the India Neo 9 Pro is a different phone with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2
  • No telephoto camera: the rear setup is a 50MP main plus a 50MP ultra-wide
  • No wireless charging and no 3.5mm headphone jack, and vivo's spec sheet lists no IP rating; the USB-C port is USB 2.0
  • Launched on Android 14 with no OS update pledge on vivo's spec sheet; weighs 190-196g depending on the finish
