Announcement. Vivo iQOO Neo 7 - a million parrots in AnTuTu, almost for free!

Vivo smartphone announced in ChinaiQOO Neo 7. And… Wow! I am impressed. Because formally, judging by the price, we should have a middle class that is not too sophisticated. But in fact, the filling is more than solid.

Iron.Not only was the MediaTek Dimensity 9000+ chipset installed in Neo 7, which usually scores over a million points in AnTuTu. In addition to it, they also screwed something auxiliary called “Pro +” - a separate graphics chip. They say that thanks to this chip, games will have higher fps and lower power consumption.

Memory. There are a lot of options here. From a relatively modest 8 + 128 GB to an almost obscene 12 + 512 GB. There is no support for memory cards.

AMOLED screen. Large - 6.78″ (111 cm²). The resolution is standard - 1080 × 2400 (388 ppi). The refresh rate is up to 120 Hz. Plus, they promise top brightness, P3 and other goodies.

The battery is standard, 5000 mAh. But the charging speed is close to the record - 120 V. (From zero to 50%, the smartphone should be charged in 9 minutes).

Cameras. Of course, this is not a flagship level.16 MP front, 50+8+2 MP rear. However, there is optical image stabilization. And the sensor of the main camera is quite serious, very popular and very large Sony IMX766V. Those. Neo 7 is unlikely to get into the top ratings of camera phones, but you can still hope for a good picture.

Other. As expected, there is an NFC module, a sixth Wi-Fi, Type-C. The fingerprint scanner is built into the screen.

And also - Neo 7 - one of the first smartphones on Android 13 (plus a proprietary shell, of course).

Of the minor annoyances, the lack of LTE Band 20 can be noted.

And about money.

¥2699 (₽22800, $371), ¥2999 (₽25400, $412), ¥3299 (₽27900, $453) and ¥3599 (₽30400, $494) for varieties 8+128, 8+256, 12+256 and 12 +512 GB respectively.
