iQOO Neo 8 Pro to bring a new Dimensity 9200+ chipset
According to Digital Chat Station, iQOO will unveil the Neo 8 series in May. The leakster now provides details on one of the models, the iQOO Neo 8 Pro. The Neo 7 series never had a Pro model, but it did have a Racing edition with a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 instead of the Dimensity 9000+.
The Neo 8 Pro will be powered by a yet to be announced Dimensity 9200+. If it’s anything like the Dimensity 9000+ (which was featured in the Chinese version of the Neo 7), the 9200+ will have an overclocked CPU and GPU compared to the original Dimensity 9200 (likely going from the current 3.05GHz prime core frequency to 3.2GHz).
The Neo 8 series will allegedly include configurations with up 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage.
The leakster adds that the phone will have a large 6.78” display with 1,260 x 2,800px resolution (20:9) and 2,160Hz high frequency PWM dimming. By the sound of it, the display will have curved sides. This is an upgrade in terms of resolution (the Neo 7 had an FHD+ display).
The iQOO Neo 8 Pro will have a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast wired charging. Its predecessor had the same stats and could do a full 1-100% charge in 25 minutes.
By the way, DCS also mentioned that there will be another Neo 8 model, one with a Snapdragon 8+ (presumably Gen 1) chipset, which might turn out to be the new Racing edition.

Why buy the SD version of this phone instead of the older variant with the same chipset and cheaper price tag?
