The iQOO Neo 12 will be the first smartphone to use Visionox’s new “Sky Mirror” pTSF luminescent material, iQOO confirmed at a display technology event held tonight with Visionox and Tsinghua University. The three partners worked together on the material that builds on Visionox’s fourth-generation OLED emitter technology.
The announcement also adds more detail to earlier reports about the Neo 12’s screen. A previous report tipped a 2K, 185Hz Visionox display, before iQOO’s own Weibo teasers confirmed the pTSF panel alongside the cooling fan and chipset. The latest event explains how the new display material works and what improvements it brings over the previous generation.
pTSF stands for phosphorescence-assisted thermally activated sensitized fluorescence. The technology uses two materials to produce light. A thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) material absorbs energy and converts it quickly before transferring it to a high-purity fluorescent dye, which then emits light.
According to iQOO, this process wastes less energy than the previous generation material, allowing more of the power consumed by the display to become visible light.
iQOO claims better efficiency and longer lifespan
Compared with the previous generation, iQOO says the new material improves luminous efficiency by 8% and global peak brightness by 10%, while reducing screen power consumption by 6.5%. The company also claims a 50% increase in lifespan.
The material is also supposed to improve color accuracy when viewing the screen from an angle. iQOO claims color shift is reduced by 18% at a 30-degree viewing angle and by 40% at 75 degrees.
Beyond the display, the iQOO Neo 12 will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, paired with iQOO’s Q3 e-sports chip and the latest version of its Monster super core engine.
The phone will also be the first Neo series model to feature the Ice Dome active cooling fan. Unlike passive cooling systems, which rely on heat dissipation through the phone’s internal components and body, the new setup uses a redesigned air duct to move air through the device.
iQOO has not announced an exact launch date or pricing for the Neo 12 yet. The company has confirmed only that the phone will launch in China this month.
