Editorial report
vivo iQOO Neo9 16 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The vivo iQOO Neo9 suits buyers who prioritize a fluid display and powerful hardware. This China version combines 12 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage, but it has no Google Services, an important limitation for anyone who relies on them in Android.
Its 6.78″ LTPO AMOLED display runs at 144 Hz and has a density of 453 ppi; both the refresh rate and pixel density are among the best of phones launched around the same time. The 89.7% screen-to-body ratio is also better than most. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and its AnTuTu result put performance better than most phones of its time. The 50 MP main camera uses a 1/1.49″ sensor, larger than most, although its f/1.9 aperture is weaker than most. A 5,160 mAh battery offers more capacity than most phones of its time, while 120 W charging is among the fastest.
The iQOO Neo9 is also sold with 16 GB of RAM and storage up to 1 TB. Its overall NeoScore is 7.8. It makes a compelling option for buyers focused on screen and performance, provided the lack of Google Services in this version fits their needs.
