Editorial report
vivo iQOO Neo5 Lite 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The vivo iQOO Neo5 Lite suits buyers looking for a high-refresh display and performance that ranks better than most phones of its time. This China-market version has no Google Services, a significant limitation for anyone who relies on them. The phone is sold in configurations ranging from 8 GB / 128 GB to 12 GB / 256 GB.
Its 6.57″ IPS LCD display pairs a 144 Hz refresh rate, among the best of its time, with 402 ppi density, higher than that of most phones from the same period. The Snapdragon 870 and its AnTuTu score of 801,038 place performance better than most phones launched around the same time. This configuration has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, with no storage expansion.
Connectivity also ranks better than most phones of its time. The phone supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6, NFC and dual SIM. Its camera performance is typical for the period: the 48 MP main camera records 4K at 30 fps, and an 8 MP ultrawide camera adds a wider field of view. The main camera has no optical image stabilization. A 4,500 mAh battery is typical in capacity, while 44 W charging power is higher than that of most phones launched around the same time.
With a NeoScore of 6.0, the iQOO Neo5 Lite is a compelling fit for buyers who prioritize its display, performance and connectivity, provided the lack of Google Services is acceptable.
