The above video of the iQOO Neo 9 series released by the brand not only confirms the launch date but also reveals its design and some specifications. Although the front of the Neo 9 series is not revealed in the teaser, it appears that the Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro will have a flat OLED panel. On the back, both phones feature a dual-camera setup.

It seems that the iQOO Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro will come in three colors, such as black, blue, and red-white dual-tone. The red variant seems to have a leather back, while the other two appear to have glass back.

The teaser also confirms the inclusion of the Dimensity 9300 chipset and iQOO’s self-developed Q1 chip for better graphics. As reports have revealed, the Neo 9 will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, whereas the Pro model will be blessed with the latest Dimensity 9300 chip. For those who don’t know, the same chip powers the Vivo X100 series, and it will also be seen on the Oppo Find X7, which is expected to debut in late January.

According to a recent report, iQOO will also announce its first-ever smartwatch, dubbed the iQOO Watch, alongside the Neo 9 series. In addition, the brand is also expected to unveil the iQOO TWS 1e earbuds. The brand is yet to release an official confirmation of the arrival of these devices.
