iQOO Neo 10 Launching in India on May 26 With Snapdragon 8s Gen 4

The iQOO Neo 10 is officially scheduled to debut in India later this month, with the company confirming its launch date and key features. Scheduled to release on May 26, the phone will bring the lightning-fast Snapdragon 8s Gen 1 and iQOO’s in-house Q1 gaming chip that claims to offer an ultimate experience in terms of performance.

This model is speculated to arrive as a successor to the iQOO Neo 10R that debuted in March with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC. And interestingly, the Neo 10’s Indian version has quickly become quite different from the Chinese one.

iQOO Neo 10 India Launch on May 26: Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, 7,000mAh Battery, 144fps Gaming Confirmed

The confirmation comes courtesy of an official X post shared by iQOO India wherein the company revealed that the phone will be made available in two colour options — Inferno Red and Titanium Chrome. An Amazon microsite indicates that the Neo 10 will get a big 7,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging. It will also offer bypass charging and feature a 7,000mm² vapour chamber to aid in cooling.

With a thickness of just 8.09mm, iQOO claims it to be the slimmest phone in its category to house a 7,000mAh battery. Designed for mobile gamers, the handset is touted as the only phone in its segment to support 144fps gaming. It will also come equipped with LPDDR5X Ultra RAM and UFS 4.1 storage for smooth multitasking and fast data access. Teasers show a dual rear camera setup alongside a ring-shaped LED flash, all housed in a distinctive “squircle” module.

While the full camera specs and price are still under wraps, more information is expected in the lead-up to the launch. In comparison, the Chinese version of the iQOO Neo 10 came with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, Q2 gaming chip, and a smaller 6,100mAh battery. It featured a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 16MP front camera, along with a 6.78-inch curved AMOLED LTPO display offering up to 144Hz refresh rate.
