Earlier this month, iQOO took wraps off the iQOO Neo 6 smartphone in China. The device comes with flagship hardware like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, 120Hz AMOLED screen, and an independent display chip. Now, it’s time for the lower-end variant of the phone which will likely be called the iQOO Neo 6 SE. The phone emerged on a few certifications in the past, but there wasn’t anything concrete revealing all of its details. The popular tipster DigitalChatStation has now revealed the phone’s key highlights. Let’s take a look.

The iQOO Neo 6 SE is tipped to come with a 6.62-inch punch-hole display with a Full-HD+ resolution. The screen will an OLED panel with a 120Hz touch sampling rate. This is the same as the iQOO Neo 6. Furthermore, the smartphone is said to come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset. This is contrary to the previous rumors that said it will arrive with the Snapdragon 778G+ SoC.

As for the battery, the tipster reveals the device to pack a 4,700mAh cell that will support 80W fast charging technology. This would make the phone charge up to 30% in around 5 minutes. It appears that some of these specs have been recycled from the original iQOO Neo 6 as it has the same battery and charging speed. As said above, the display is also the same.

Having said that, the company might as well keep the overall design similar. Who knows? As of now, we only know that the chipset itself is changing. With these details out, we expect the phone’s release to be near.

iQOO Neo6 launch details and specs leaked: 120Hz display, SD 8 Gen1, and more

Pranav Sawant — Thu, 17 Mar 2022 12:24:02 +0000

It’s time that we see the successor to the iQOO Neo5, given that the phone was launched this month last year. While unfortunately, we haven’t got any launch details of the possible iQOO Neo6 yet, the specs of the phone are being leaked from the last few weeks. Today, the tipster DigitalChatStation has revealed the phone’s launch date and has also revealed some of its highlights. Additionally, another tipster has shared the possible specs sheet of the iQOO Neo6.

The tipster DCS reveals that the upcoming iQOO Neo6 will go official in early April. Although not confirmed, we assume it to be released in the home market – China. The smartphone is said to be an upgraded version of its predecessor, where it will bring flagship internals.

The device is said to come with an E4 straight screen panel. It will come with dual-pressure sense support and have some sort of heat dissipation system. The tipster @Shadow_Leak has shared the specs sheet in addition to the tipped details by DCS.

The iQOO Neo6 is touted to sport a 120Hz panel with Full-HD+ resolution. This display will double up as an in-display fingerprint scanner offering security. The smartphone will come with a triple camera system at the rear.

The Neo6 will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1 SoC. This will be a big upgrade over the Snapdragon 870 SoC seen in the predecessor, the iQOO Neo5. It will also be an improvement over the Snapdragon 888 SoC in the iQOO Neo5S. Lastly, the smartphone is tipped to have an 80W fast charging and will boot on Android 12 OS.

iQOO Neo6 key specifications leaked, will be powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 1

Zohaib Ahmed — Thu, 10 Mar 2022 12:07:55 +0000

iQOO only in December last year launched the Neo5S as a slightly upgraded version of the Neo5, but now looks to be gearing up to launch a successor to the duo already in the form of the iQOO Neo6. While a launch date of the device is yet to be revealed, its key specifications have been leaked, courtesy of notable tipster Panda is Bald.

With a post on Weibo, the tipster compared the specifications of the iQOO Neo5S to the iQOO Neo6, highlighting improvements across the board. The upcoming phone sports a 6.6-inch E4 straight screen, is powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, and has a 4,700mAh battery with 80W charging support. There’s also some fancy tech for heat dissipation but its specifics were lost in translation.

The iQOO Neo6 was earlier mistaken to be the phone with model number V2154A, which in December made an appearance on Google Play Console. After release, V2154A was actually found to be the iQOO Neo5S.

Regardless, now that the first leaks pertaining to the device are finally here, we should be hearing more about it in the coming days. The usual process starts with leaks, then with an appearance on certification sites, and finally official teasers just before the release.

It is possible that the iQOO Neo6 will also have a pressure-sensitive display since the Neo5S had it, but that’s only speculation as of now.

iQOO Neo6 appears on Geekbench, iQOO Neo5s to have pressure-sensitive screen

Pranav Sawant — Mon, 13 Dec 2021 17:01:29 +0000

Earlier this month, the upcoming iQOO Neo6 made it to the Google Play Console listing revealing its key specs and design. Now, ahead of any announcements, the device has appeared on the Geekbench portal flaunting its scores.

According to the Geekbench 5 results, the device scores 1072 single-core points and 3450 multi-core points. These scores are possible, thanks to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC, which powers the device. Since it is an octa-core SoC, it has eight scores clocked at different clock speeds.

The first four cores are clocked at @1.80GHz, while the other three cores are clocked @2.42GHz, and the last core is clocked @2.84GHz. It has 12GB of RAM and runs on Android 11 under the hood.

In addition to this, the previous Play Console listing revealed that the device will have a punch-hole display. It will feature a Full-HD+ resolution and will have a thin-bezel design. The 3C listing for the same phone with the V2154A model number confirmed 66W fast charging support.

Apart from this, there’s still time until we have the phone in the market as the company is yet to launch its much-anticipated iQOO Neo5s. For starters, the iQOO Neo5s is scheduled to launch on December 20 and ahead of it today, news broke that it will come with a pressure-sensitive screen. This pressure-sensitive screen will be good for gaming since it is already marketed as a gaming device.

The iQOO Neo5s is expected to come with a 120Hz refresh rate display and have Snapdragon 888 SoC under the hood. The smartphone will feature a 16MP selfie lens and a 48MP triple rear camera system. It is also slated to have Optical Image Stabilization on its primary sensor.

iQOO may also launch a device dubbed iQOO Neo5SE at the same launch event as the Neo 5s. The Neo5SE was rumoured to come powered by Snapdragon 778G Plus mid-range SoC.

Vivo V2154A appears on 3C with 66W fast charging; Could be the upcoming iQOO Neo6

Pranav Sawant — Sun, 10 Oct 2021 05:11:21 +0000

iQOO is expected to launch a new smartphone soon as a device carrying model number V2154A has just appeared on China’s 3C certification. It is believed to be the upcoming iQOO Neo6 and its details are now known.

According to the 3C certification, the Vivo V2154A, the purported iQOO Neo6 has support for 66W fast charging support. This is an upgrade over the 44W fast charging seen in the iQOO Neo5 Vitality Edition that launched earlier this year. However, this is the same charging speed as the original iQOO Neo5.

Unfortunately, there isn’t anything else to learn from the listing. But, we expect the phone to pack a big battery. Rumours are rife that the smartphone will feature an OLED panel with a 120Hz high refresh rate. It may come with multiple cameras and could have a 48MP primary lens.

Under the hood, the device could feature a flagship chipset. We may see it with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC paired with various RAM and storage options. The smartphone is also expected to run on Android 11 OS.

As of now, there’s no word on the phone’s announcement. But, as the device passes more certifications, we can expect an impending launch.
