AdvertisementsiQOO Neo 5 powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor could launch by mid-March. The Neo 5 is said to be the successor to the Neo 3 which launched in April last year. The Snapdragon 870 processor was also announced recently as a slightly upgraded version of the 865 Plus chipset.
According to a post by a tipster on Weibo, the company is planning to launch the iQOO Neo 5 by mid-March with the Snapdragon 870 under the hood. That’s not all, the Neo 5 is also slated to support 88W fast wired charging and 66W fast wireless charging making it one of the few phones to support such fast charging rates.
As per the leak, the iQOO Neo 5 features a Super AMOLED screen that supports 120Hz high refresh rate and will likely have a notch cutout for the 16MP selfie camera. Its chassis is expected to be made out of aluminium for increased durability. The phone is rumoured to be powered by the Snapdragon 870 processor that has an octa-core CPU with Adreno 650 GPU and Snapdragon Elite gaming features.
