In China it's just Neo9
The iQOO brand presented another mid-budget smartphone on the flagship platform. The Neo9 Pro model debuted in December with the Dimensity 9300 SoC at its core. Now a global version has been released on another platform.
For some reason, the heart of the global model is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, that is, in terms of performance it is much inferior to the Chinese version. At the same time, the price is almost the same: $410 versus $420 for a Chinese device.
For this money, a device with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash memory is offered, but there are also more expensive options. Everything else appears to be identical to the Chinese version. This is a 144-Hz AMOLED screen with a diagonal of 6.78 inches, a 50-megapixel main camera and a 5160 mAh battery with 120-watt charging.
By the way, the Chinese version of Neo9 has similar parameters, but in the 12/256 GB version it costs only $320 in the Middle Kingdom.
