iQOO is gearing up to launch two flagship phones this month in China. Alongside the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered iQOO 15, the brand will also introduce the iQOO Neo 11. Last month, tipster Digital Chat Station shared key specifications of the Neo 11, and now, a new Weibo post by tipster Smart Pikachu claims that the device will receive a significant upgrade this year, delivering flagship-level performance in a more affordable package.

According to the tipster, the iQOO Neo 11 will sport a 2K OLED flat display with an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor. Powering the device will be the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, paired with a large 7,500mAh battery with 100W charging.

When it comes to gaming performance, the Neo 11 will feature the same Monster Supercore Engine found in the iQOO 15, offering excellent stability and smooth frame rates during intensive gaming sessions.

In terms of design, a previous leak by tipster DCS suggested that the Neo 11 retains a similar appearance to its predecessor, while introducing a metal frame and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. He also revealed that the device will be priced at around 2,500 Yuan (~$350).

The iQOO Neo 11 will rival other Snapdragon 8 Elite phones, which are expected to launch this month in China. These include the OnePlus Ace 6, Realme GT 8, and Redmi K90.

The iQOO 15 is already confirmed to launch in India. While the official launch date is yet to be declared, it is expected to break cover in November. Since the Neo 11 is not yet being teased in India, it appears that it may not launch with the iQOO 15 next month.
