Performance

iQOO

The iQOO Neo 7 Pro has been officially confirmed to be powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor. This marks a significant upgrade compared to its predecessors, the iQOO Neo 6 Pro and iQOO Neo 7, which featured the Snapdragon 870 and MediaTek Dimensity 8200 SoC, respectively. The performance of the Neo 7 Pro is expected to be impressive, as iQOO has teased that it can achieve over 1.3 million points on the AnTuTu benchmark. This claim is supported by a leaked benchmark result, revealing a score of 1,316,514 points for the device. This is particularly beneficial for gamers seeking since the GPU performance of the device is leagues above the other two.

If that was not enough, iQOO is also throwing in an independent gaming chip that will guarantee stable and high framerates while gaming. According to leaks, the iQOO Neo 7 Pro 5G is expected to be available in two configurations: 8 GB RAM with 128 GB of storage and 12 GB RAM with 256 GB of storage. These configurations are likely to feature LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, providing users with fast and efficient performance.

Rumors suggest that the iQOO Neo 7 Pro will be equipped with a 5,000mAh battery and support 120W fast charging technology. The brand has hinted that users will be able to charge their devices from 0 to 50% in a mere 8 minutes. Given the high-powered specifications, efficient cooling will be crucial to maintain optimal temperatures. To address this, it is rumored that the device will incorporate a VC Cooling system with a size of 4013mm², ensuring effective heat dissipation. Other than that, we can expect the device to arrive with an Android 13-based operating system, likely running the FuntouchOS 13 skin on top.
