iQOO Neo10 Pro+ Launched in China with Snapdragon 8 Elite

iQOO has officially launched the Neo10 Pro+ in China, a performance-focused smartphone that now sits at the top of the Neo lineup. It brings a long list of high-end specifications, with a clear focus on gaming performance, display quality, and signal reliability.

While iQOO has been known for offering solid value in the performance segment, the Neo10 Pro+ marks a step toward a more premium territory with its 2K screen, large battery, and new heat dissipation tech.

Display and Design

The phone features a 6.82-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a resolution of 3168×1440 pixels, 144Hz refresh rate, and 4500 nits peak brightness-one of the highest in any smartphone right now. It supports HDR10+ and uses BOE's Q10 panel with 2592Hz high-frequency dimming to reduce flicker and eye strain. Certifications from SGS and TÜV Rheinland confirm its low blue light performance.

Despite its premium display, the phone comes with a plastic frame and glass back, offered in three finishes: Light White, Shadow Black, and a special Super Pixel colorway made in collaboration with BMW M Motorsport, inspired by retro gaming aesthetics.

Snapdragon 8 Elite and Gaming Performance

At its core, the Neo10 Pro+ runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite, Qualcomm's performance-oriented flagship chip. It's paired with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage. iQOO claims the phone scores over 3.31 million on AnTuTu, though independent testing is yet to confirm that.

To manage thermals, it features iQOO's largest ever 7K Ice Dome VC cooling system, said to improve heat dissipation efficiency by 15%.

The device also debuts the self-developed Q2 gaming chip, allowing 2K resolution with 144FPS support and real-time frame interpolation-features typically reserved for high-end gaming monitors. This brings PC-level graphics features like super-resolution textures and sustained high frame rates into mobile gaming for the first time in the Neo series.

Signal Optimization and Connectivity

The Neo10 Pro+ houses 23 antennas for robust signal coverage, along with a new signal bridge design that enhances low-frequency performance by 26% in weak signal areas. iQOO has also upgraded its Wi-Fi wall penetration tech, claiming the device can maintain usable connections through up to four walls.

A unique feature is the Space-Time Signal Map 3.0, which learns the user's location habits to proactively maintain connection strength in frequently visited areas.

Connectivity features include Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, and support for multiple global navigation systems including NavIC.

Cameras and Software

The rear setup includes a 50MP IMX921 primary sensor with OIS, paired with an 8MP ultra-wide camera. The front has a 16MP selfie camera.

The device runs Android 15 with OriginOS 5.0 on top.

Battery and Charging

The Neo10 Pro+ packs a 6800mAh battery, which is larger than what most flagships offer. It supports 120W fast charging, allowing it to hit 70% charge in just 25 minutes. The phone also supports 100W PPS charging for broader compatibility with fast-charging adapters.
