The iQoo Neo 6 is the newest phone from vivo to feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. It’s the third officially announced vivo phone to use the latest chipset from Qualcomm. The two other phones from vivo that use the processor are the vivo X Fold and vivo X Note.
There’s no news yet of when the vivo NEX 5 will be released, however, vivo and iQoo fans can enjoy the specs and features that come with the iQoo Neo 6. The phone will be available for purchase on April 20.
DESIGN
The iQoo Neo 6 design is similar to most of Samsung’s phones: malapad ang screen, at manipis ang mga bezel. Since gaming phone eto, advantage na rin ang extra screen real estate: the iQoo Neo 6 comes with a punch-hole front cam sitting at the top-center of the screen.
Mas malaki ang iQoo Neo 6 compared to its predecessors and to the iQoo 9 and iQoo 9 Pro. Actually, same design lang sila ng iQoo 9 and 9 Pro with respect to its camera array. Tinanggal na rin ng vivo ang 3.5 mm jack sa iQoo Neo 6.
Dimensions are at 163 x 76.2 x 8.5 mm and weighs close to 200 grams. Available ang iQoo Neo 6 in Black, Blue, and Orange. The blue and orange variants have a faux leather finish. The black comes in a matte/brushed-steel finish. The material used is actually “high-end fluorite AG glass”, so expect a 3D effect for the black variant.
DISPLAY
The iQoo Neo 6 has a 6.62 AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. This phone is made for gaming with those kind of screen specs. Users can expect better video and picture quality, and even a better experience sa ultra smooth, touch-responsive display.
Cinematic din ang dating ng picture quality because of the HDR10+ feature. Mapailalim ka man ng araw, or under the covers, impressive din ang display, thanks to a peak brightness of 1300 nits. Guaranteed na mas malinaw ang screen and you will appreciate the photos or videos you take with its just-as-impressive set of cameras.
PERFORMANCE
Inside this phone is the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. Bago na rin ang Adreno GPU nito, so guaranteed ang gamers ng better playing experience. Mapa-Mythic ka man or Bronze sa Mobile Legends, feeling mo winner ka na with the amazing performance of the iQoo Neo 6.
Syempre since malaki ang screen at powerful ang chipset, kailangan din ng iQoo Neo 6 ng mas malaking battery. Meron itong 4700 mAh battery with an 80W fast charger. Kaya netong mag charge ng almost 80% in just 15 minutes, so you’re always ready for your next game.
The phone also features an under-display fingerprint scanner. If you’re using the Blue and Orange variants of this phone, parang yayamanin talaga ang dating.
CAMERA
Syempre gaming phone ang iQoo Neo 6, but that doesn’t mean kinalimutan na nila ang camera department. Meron itong 64MP main camera with OIS for more stable videos and clearer pictures.
For panoramic shots and group photos, meron itong 12MP wide camera, and a depth sensor for the bokeh effect, perfect for solo portrait shots, as well, close-up shots ng objects kung prefer mong gamitin ang camera mo for different kinds of compositions.
