iQOO Neo5 Life appears on Geekbench ahead of announcement

Michail, 21 May 2021

There’s a new iQOO Neo5 Life scheduled to be announced on May 24 and now the device has appeared in a Geekbench listing ahead of next week’s big reveal.

The benchmark listing confirms the V2118A model number and also shows us the Snapdragon 870 will once again sit at the helm just like on the regular iQOO Neo 5. The unit in the test boasts 8GB RAM and managed a 1,021-point single-core performance and 3,427 points on the multi-core test. The device boots Android 11 presumably with OriginOS for iQOO.

FYI, this is the rebranded model of their own, IQOO neo 3 5G, except with SD 870.

The technology is there. It was developed by a Chinese company a couple of years ago. However, it hasn't been implemented in any commercially sold phone yet so either it's too expensive or just doesn't work very well

Don't know about fingerprint reader but IPS LCD screens can support an aod despite what most reviewers say. Take a look at Nokia Lumia 920 from back 8n 2014 or the LG g5 from I think 2015/16 they both LCD and both have really good aod displays. ...
