Sudhanshu — Mon, 05 Jun 2023 08:13:53 +0000

After many leaks and rumors, iQOO has now confirmed that the Neo 7 Pro smartphone will soon launch in India. The confirmation comes via a tweet from iQOO India’s CEO Nipun Marya, who shared the silhouette of the upcoming device in an image while also revealing that it will have an orange color option.

Initially, it was believed that the iQOO Neo 7 Pro would essentially be a rebadged version of the recently launched iQOO Neo 8 in China. However, upon closer inspection of the teaser image, doubts have arisen. The noticeable disparity lies in the camera bump design. The camera bump showcased in the teaser aligns with the iQOO Neo 7 series devices rather than the Neo 8, suggesting the possibility of a rebranded Neo 7 series device, potentially the iQOO Neo 7 Racing Edition.
