iQOO Neo 10

The 7000 mAh battery delivered 15 hours 39 minutes in testing, making it well suited to demanding days. Its unusually large capacity is a clear advantage over slimmer premium rivals.

The 120W charging system can go from 20% to 100% in about 27 minutes. Short charging stops are enough to add several hours of practical use.

The 1260x2800 AMOLED screen combines a fluid 144 Hz refresh rate with excellent sharpness. Peak brightness of 5500 nits helps it remain readable in direct sunlight.

It reaches about 2.1 million on AnTuTu, comfortably above what many phones at this price manage. UFS 4.1 storage also keeps installations, loading and file transfers quick.

There is no telephoto camera, leaving portraits and distant subjects reliant on digital cropping. Several similarly priced rivals provide 3x or even 5x optical zoom.

The phone does not support wireless charging, despite that convenience becoming more common among premium alternatives. Its excellent 120W wired system partly offsets this limitation.

IP65 protection handles dust and water jets but falls short of the IP68 protection offered by many rivals. It is a less reassuring choice around pools or prolonged heavy rain.

Three Android version updates are adequate but trail phones offering five to seven years of support. That matters for buyers planning to keep the device well beyond four years.
