iQOO Neo 9 Pro+ Rumoured to Launch in July 2024 with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Chipset

Highlights

• iQOO Neo 9 Pro+ set to feature Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset
• 6.78″ LTPO AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate and HDR10+
• Triple camera setup with 50MP main camera and 120W wired charging
• Potential India launch with competitive pricing in Rs 35,000 segment

There is a new rumour that iQOO is preparing perhaps to launch one more variant as part of its rather popular Neo 9 series—the iQOO Neo 9 Pro+.

The leak reportedly put the device for a release in July 2024.

According to fresh leaks by Chinese microblogging platforms Weibo, this new edition is supposed to feature the latest chip from Qualcomm: Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.

Last year, the iQOO Neo 9 Pro had a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and really represented great value for the price.

This time, however, the Neo 9 Pro+ could turn out even better.

Rumoured Specifications

Although the leak primarily focuses on the Chinese market, there’s speculation that the iQOO Neo 9 Pro+ could make its way to India as well.

If that’s the case, here are the rumored specifications that have tech enthusiasts buzzing:

• 6.78″ LTPO AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, and a peak brightness of 3,000 nits
• Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset
• Up to 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB UFS 4.0 storage
• Triple camera setup with a 50MP main camera, 8MP ultra-wide lens, and 4K video recording
• 16MP selfie camera with 1080p video capability
• 5,160mAh battery with 120W wired charging and reverse wired charging support
• Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3
• Android 14 with FuntouchOS 14

A Good Move for iQOO?

On the off chance that the reports were true, then, the iQOO Neo 9 Pro+ would have its place in India.

The Neo 9 Pro+ will have an edge over what others lack with so many similar Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 phones about to hit the market, and therefore accomplish what others have not—with its more superior chip for the price tag.

While the iQOO Neo 9 Pro can already stand up to competition in the segment of Rs 35,000, the Neo 9 Pro Plus might bridge that gap between the ‘Neo’ series and the iQOO 12 by bringing powerful performance at an affordable price.

What would be the differentiating factor then?

How much separation will be there between the iQOO Neo series and the signature number series?

While we wait for more updates and confirmations from the officials, that prospect alone of an iQOO Neo 9 Pro+ can make any tech enthusiast excited.

It will be potentially jammed with the speculated specs, and maybe with the help of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in the power department, this might just change everything on how much performance one can squeeze from this price point.
