iQOO is reportedly working on the iQOO Neo 12 for the Chinese market. Speculation suggests the phone could make its debut later this month, while it may also arrive globally as the iQOO 16R. Ahead of the expected launch, an alleged Neo 12 has now appeared on Geekbench, revealing several key hardware details.
iQOO Neo 12 Geekbench listing
A Geekbench listing for the vivo V2618A shows the device running Android 17 with 16GB of RAM. It scored 3,621 points in the single-core test and 11,078 points in the multi-core test. The motherboard is listed as “canoe”, while the processor information points to Qualcomm’s SM8850 platform.
The SM8850 designation corresponds to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, which has also been linked to the iQOO Neo 12 in previous reports. The listing shows an eight-core configuration with six cores clocked at 3.63GHz and two performance cores reaching 4.61GHz.
Tipster Abhishek Yadav has also claimed that iQOO is developing two new devices, including a phone with the PD2618 model number, corresponding to V2618A for China, and a tablet carrying the DPD2653 model number. He says both devices will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and support gaming features introduced with the iQOO 16 and iQOO Pad Ultra, including improved Vulkan shadows in Delta Force and optimisation for Infinity Nikki. He has also stated that the V2618A (Neo 12) may get rebranded as the iQOO 16R in India.

Earlier today, Digital Chat Station tipped the Neo 12 to feature a 2K display with an unusually high 185Hz refresh rate. The Visionox panel is reportedly the world’s first mass-produced 2K 185Hz display and uses fourth-generation pTSF technology, with improved brightness, lifespan and lower power consumption.
Previous reports have pointed to a 6.83-inch flat display, a dedicated display chip, a battery exceeding 9,000mAh with 100W charging, an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and a high-level IP rating.
