iQOO is known for its game phones in the market in each price range have their own more “hit” products, Vivo treatment of iQOO is not squirming, but in the iQOO brand debuted a number of new technologies, even the products positioned in the mid-range market.
As a segment of the Neo series focuses on the gaming experience, naturally, through the ultimate gaming performance to impress consumers.
On October 20, iQOO Neo7 officially released, a hard-core dual-core “Tiangui 9000 + and independent display chip Pro +, equipped with the first in the history of the series 120W ultra-fast flash charging, image strength is comparable to professional standards, but also Samsung E5 flexible straight screen, 5000mAh super battery and intelligent cooling system to create a golden triangle of gaming experience.
Appearance – Infinite geometry of retro-futuristic design
The iQOO Neo7 is a “geometric black” color scheme, the first feeling is very light, at least a lot lighter than the other “brick machine” in hand, the whole machine in 202g.
The second feeling is that the color scheme is fantastic. iQOO Neo7 continues the iconic design of its predecessor, more cleverly using the “pixel character” and “leather clash” elements on the body.
The Neo7 is also available in “Impression Blue” and “Pop Orange”, with some differences in that the “Geometric Black” is made of AG glass and the “Impression From a personal point of view, I still prefer the AG glass material, which has a delicate frosted texture and is very silky to the touch.
Overall, iQOO Neo7’s appearance compared to iQOO Neo6 is not much different, the family-style cloud-step camera module design has been retained, and only the macro lens and flash detail design is different.
In the iQOO Neo7 macro lens and flash in a vertical way moved to the metal plate below the image module, next to the flash is a very retro pixel NeoLogo and OISAICameraLogo, not only to break the heavy sense of metal but also to make the overall design more dynamic.
The front is a gaming enthusiast favorite 6.78-inch Samsung E5 flexible straight screen, as the most advanced light-emitting material in the current Samsung OLED screen, E5 compared to the previous generation of E4 has the advantages of higher brightness, higher contrast and lower power consumption.
Straight screen compared to curved screen, but also has the game is not easy to accidentally touch, low maintenance costs, simple film and other advantages.
At the same time, this screen supports four refresh rates of 30/60/90/120Hz, 1500nit local peak brightness, HDR10+ and other features to ensure a high brush silkier smooth, low brush saves power consumption.
Performance – flagship strong core king style
iQOO Neo7 has passed the official KPL competition machine test certification core, which means that the average frame rate, frame rate stability, network latency, temperature rise, power consumption and many other indicators meet the official tournament standards, bringing users a tournament-level gaming performance experience.
In terms of configuration, iQOO Neo7 is equipped with a “hardcore dual-core” Tiangui 9000+ and independent display chip Pro+. The iQOO Neo7 is equipped with a “hardcore dual core” and a discrete display chip Pro+. The iQOO 9000+ is built on TSMC’s 4nm process and is composed of one large 3.2GHz core, three 2.85GHz performance cores and four 1.8GHz efficiency cores.
Compared with the previous generation of Tiangui 9000, the CPU performance of Tiangui 9000+ is improved by about 5% and GPU performance is improved by about 10% under the same power consumption. With a Rabbit score of over 1,050,000, it can be said that the Tiangui 9000+ is one of the best processors on the mobile side at the moment.

Of course, iQOO Neo7 naturally did not leave behind the independent display chip Pro+, independent display chip Pro+ can not only bring the game inserted into the frame.
More importantly, some games that do not require as high a frame rate can be reduced from 60 fps or 90 fps to 45 fps, and then use the MEMC function of the discrete display chip Pro+ to increase the game frame rate from 45 fps to 90 fps, thus reducing the power consumption of the iQOO Neo7 on this Tiangui 9000+ game to improve heat and protect battery life.
It is worth mentioning that the game visual effect enhancement brought by the independent display chip Pro+ not only enhances the picture quality experience to achieve the level of the enhanced game screen display. iQOO Neo7 with the independent display chip Pro+ and the dual-core pairing of the Tiangui 9000+, for the majority of gaming enthusiasts to bring a comparable professional gaming experience.
In terms of game adaptability, this screen of iQOO Neo7 supports a two-finger 360Hz touch reporting rate + 2000Hz instant touch sampling rate, which allows iQOO Neo7 to have a more accurate and faster operating experience in games such as “King’s Glory”, “Peace Elite” and “Crossfire”.
During the gaming experience, iQOO Neo7 supports pressure-sensitive operation on both the left and right sides of the screen, press to perform a mapping, and release to perform a second mapping, the operating logic is the same as the traditional pressure-sensitive shoulder keys.
However, users can customize the logic of the iQOO Neo7 pressure-sensitive operation, according to different games set different key operations, compared to the need for multi-finger operation of the side buttons, the screen pressure-sensitive only two fingers to complete the operation. Compared to the physical pressure-sensitive shoulder keys, the advantage of pressure-sensitive operation is that it does not affect the overall appearance of the phone design.
In addition, in the pressure-sensitive mapping also added the “directional keys” function, after opening the key, the UI interface shows the function recommended mapping location, the user can customize the mapping, such as through pressure-sensitive to achieve a convenient pull field of view, you can also customize the gyroscope sensitivity.
In the next game test session of “Glory of the King”, Tianyi.com conducted a game in the scenario and set of connecting WiFi, turning off Bluetooth and positioning, refresh rate adaptive, sound and brightness at 50%, and game setting of “very high frame rate + ultra-high resolution + high definition picture quality”.
Through the actual 15 minutes of game testing, iQOO Neo7 is basically stable at 118.9 FPS, and there is no obvious lag during the game. The skills release is very strong to follow, basically where to point to hit, sensitivity is quite high.
Another major factor affecting the gaming experience is naturally the phone’s cooling ability. iQOO Neo7 has a built-in 4013mm2 large area VC even heat plate, which is currently the largest heat dissipation area in the history of iQOO Neo.
The interior of the VC even heat plate uses 1283 capillary copper tubes, which can speed up the internal heat cycle. There are also nine built-in temperature sensors to detect the phone’s temperature more accurately, thus ensuring better performance for the iQOO Neo7.
Of course, its ability to have such excellent heat dissipation performance, and the built-in independent display chip Pro+ are also inseparable from the relationship.
