Apart from releasing the above poster, the company confirmed that the Neo 9 series is available for reservations via its official website, Jingdong Mall, Tmall, and Pinduoduo. However, the brand has not revealed anything else about the Neo 9 lineup. Here is a look at what’s known about the Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro.

According to reports, the iQOO Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro have V2338A and V2339A model numbers, respectively. The latter was recently spotted in the database of China’s 3C certification platform. The certification revealed that the Neo 9 Pro may support 120W fast charging. According to reports, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Dimensity 9300 chipsets will power these devices, respectively. Both phones are likely to pack a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support.

The Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro are expected to feature a 6.78-inch OLED panel that offers a 1.5K resolution and a 144h refresh rate. Like the iQOO 12 series, the Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro will ship with OriginOS 4-based Android 14. The Neo 9 Pro is expected to feature an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel primary camera. It is likely that the vanilla model may feature a 50-megapixel IMX866 main camera, which was made available on the Neo 8 Pro. It is likely that the brand will confirm the Neo 9 series launch date for the Chinese market in the coming week.
