Editorial report
vivo iQOO Neo 12 16 GB / 1 TB / China technical sheet
The vivo iQOO Neo 12 suits buyers who put performance, display and battery first; its 229 g weight is the main trade-off. It has been on sale since October 28. Overall, it ranks better than most phones launched around the same time, though it is not a light option.
Its 6.83″ AMOLED display combines a 185 Hz refresh rate, 514 ppi and 2,200 nits peak brightness. The refresh rate and pixel density are among the highest of its time, while brightness is above average. AnTuTu’s 2,467,080 points also put performance among the best. The 9,000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones launched around the same time; 100 W charging is among the fastest, and wireless charging reaches 40 W.
The main camera has a 1/1.56″ sensor, above average, plus optical image stabilization and 8K video recording. Its f/1.9 aperture is dimmer than that of most phones launched around the same time. IP68 and IP69 protection and a built-in cooling fan add to the package, but the 229 g body is heavier than most. With a NeoScore of 8.3, it is a strong fit for buyers who value display, power and battery capacity more than low weight.
