iQOO Neo5 specifications

We learned about some key iQOO Neo5 specifications via the Google Play Console listing and Weibo leak. For starters, the phone will feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 5G chipset and up to 12GB of RAM and 25GB of storage. Its exact screen size is unknown, but we know that it has an FHD+ resolution (2400 x 1080) will employ a super AMOLED panel with a refresh rate of 120Hz. Little more is know about the iQOO Neo5 other than the fact that it will come with a plastic body. 

Another interesting iQOO Neo5 feature is support for 88W fast charging. Much like the upcoming Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro, its battery will come in a dual-cell configuration, allowing for faster-charging speeds while minimizing the risk. Given that the iQOO Neo5 is a watered-down version of the iQOO 7, it could feature a scaled-down camera setup similar to that of the latter.
