Is the iQOO Neo9 Pro worth buying at ₹38,989?

Yes — at ₹38,989 the iQOO Neo9 Pro is a buy, scoring 3.7 out of 5 against other phones at this price. It is strongest on performance and weakest on value for money. That is the lowest we have recorded for it.

The ZuPick verdict

3.7out of 5
BuyBest at performance, weakest at value.

The iQOO Neo9 Pro combines excellent performance, a sharp 144 Hz AMOLED display and exceptionally quick charging. Its camera versatility, moderate battery capacity and cable-only charging prevent it from being an all-round leader.

Performance4.5
It scores about 1.6 million on AnTuTu, well above what most phones at this price manage. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, 12 GB of RAM and UFS 4.0 storage provide excellent gaming and multitasking speed.
Camera3.0
The 50 MP main camera benefits from optical stabilisation, and the 8 MP ultrawide covers broader scenes. However, 4K30 video, a 16 MP selfie camera and the lack of optical zoom keep the camera system around the middle of the pack.
Display4.1
The 144 Hz AMOLED panel is unusually fluid, while 3000-nit peak brightness aids outdoor visibility. The 1260x2800 screen is sharper than the Full HD panels many rivals still use.
Battery3.6
The 5160 mAh battery provides dependable everyday capacity rather than class-leading endurance. Its 120 W charging is the highlight, taking about 21 minutes to move from 20% to full, though charging remains cable only.
Value2.9
For ₹39,999, the 12 GB and 256 GB configuration offers strong performance and fast storage. The top-end price is harder to justify when optical zoom, wireless charging and 4K60 video are excluded.

Pros & cons

What’s good
Excellent gaming performance

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and 12 GB of RAM handle demanding games and heavy multitasking smoothly. UFS 4.0 storage also keeps installations and app launches quick.

Sharp fluid display

The 6.78-inch AMOLED screen combines a sharp 1260x2800 resolution with a 144 Hz refresh rate. Its 3000-nit peak brightness also helps outdoors.

Exceptionally fast charging

The 120 W charging system replenishes the 5160 mAh battery very quickly. A 20–100% charge takes about 21 minutes.

Stabilised main camera

The 50 MP main camera has optical stabilisation for steadier low-light photos and video. The 8 MP ultrawide adds useful flexibility for landscapes and groups.

What’s not
No optical zoom

There is no telephoto camera, so portraits and distant subjects rely on digital cropping. Several photography-focused alternatives offer dedicated optical zoom.

Limited video hardware

Rear video tops out at 4K30, while stronger rivals can record smoother 4K60 footage. The 16 MP front camera is also fairly ordinary for this price.

Cable-only charging

The 5160 mAh capacity is adequate rather than exceptional beside newer large-battery rivals. Wireless charging is unsupported, although the 120 W wired system is extremely quick.

r/GadgetsIndiau/Early_Tradition4485

Yeah well export duty , tax , marketing, post processing will cost people extra. Anyways I purchased Neo 9 pro with hopes of using it for the next 4-5 years.

r/GadgetsIndiau/WizzzRizz

Understand your feelings. Bought mine last week, seems absolutely worth it to me. You do your market research before buying one. Not everyone wants to unlock bootloader . 🤷
