On October 30, at 7 PM local time, iQOO launched its performance-focused smartphone, the iQOO Neo 11, in China. This is a flagship killer device that boasts top-tier specifications together with a bold design. Since the India launch has not yet been confirmed, early leaks hint that the smartphone may turn up in early 2026. Pre-reservations are now already open on major Chinese platforms like Vivo’s official site, JD.com, and Tmall, along with bundled benefits for early buyers worth around ₹36,200.
Inside, the iQOO Neo 11 comes fitted with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, LPDDR5x Ultra RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage. This means instant performance, seamless multitasking, and power efficiency in all user operations. Further, the device has featured iQOO’s Monster super-core engine that is tuned for gaming and heavy-performance scenarios.
To keep the temperatures in check, the Neo 11 comes fitted with an 8K vapour chamber cooling system, making it perfectly suitable for extended sessions of gaming and heavy usage sans any thermal throttling.
Massive Battery and Blazing Fast Charging
A touted unique selling point of the iQOO Neo 11 is its massive 7500mAh battery, the biggest in its segment so far. Despite the humongous capacity, this phone supports 100W fast wired charging, promising that users can power up in no time and stay unplugged for a long time. Combining these elements, it sets a new benchmark for flagship smartphones.
The Neo 11 has a 2K LTPO AMOLED display, developed in collaboration with BOE, supporting a 144Hz adaptive refresh rate. This allows for ultra-smooth visuals, whether the user is gaming, streaming, or simply scrolling. It also features HDR support and a high level of brightness to make it very usable outdoors and perfect for media consumption.
A Design that Stands Out-Color Options
iQOO Neo 11 will arrive in four different colors: Black, Blue, Orange, and Silver. Each of the models will have a different kind of finish to satisfy those users who look for performance and style as well. The design language is sleek and modern, with a focus on symmetry and minimal bezels.
Software and Benchmark Performance
Operating System: The device boots OriginOS 6 based on Android 16, offering a close-to-stock experience with plenty of room for customization. Per Geekbench and AnTuTu listings, Neo 11 has secured a benchmark score of 3.54 million, positioning it as one of the fastest smartphones available.
Expected Price and Availability
While the official prices have not been declared, recent reports from industry sources maintain that the iQOO Neo 11 is expected to be priced under ₹50,000 in India. With these specifications, this phone is expected to go up against other premium mid-range devices from the likes of OnePlus, Xiaomi, and Realme.
