The iQOO Z9 Turbo Endurance Edition was launched in China in January, featuring a massive 6,400mAh battery and a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset. Today, the brand launched it in the Indian market as the iQOO Neo 10R. The Endurance Edition was launched in China starting at ¥1899 or around ₹23,000. The Neo 10R has launched in India at a starting price of ₹26,999, making it one of the fastest phones in its price segment.
Design-wise, the only change versus the Chinese variant is the color options. The Indian market gets two color options, both of which are not there for the Chinese market. One of the color options is named Raging Blue and has a two-tone design on the rear. The other color option is the MoonKnight Titanium with a plain back design. The frame is made of plastic. The phone has a stereo speaker setup, and it is IP65-certified.
The main USP of the iQOO Neo 10R is its performance. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, and there is LPDDR5X RAM with UFS 4.1 storage. It is worth mentioning that only the 256GB variant has UFS 4.1 storage. The 128GB variant has UFS 3.1 storage. There is a large 6043 mm² Vapor Chamber for thermal management. iQOO claims an AnTuTu score of over 1.7 Million points.
Another highlight of this device is its battery. It has a massive 6,400mAh battery with 80W wired charging and Bypass charging support. The phone supports 55W PD charging and can also reverse charge other devices at up to 7.5W.
The display on the front is a 6.78-inch 144Hz 1.5K AMOLED with a 4500 nits peak brightness, a 10-bit color depth, and 3840Hz PWM dimming. There is an optical under-display fingerprint scanner. Speaking of the cameras, the phone has a dual camera setup on the rear. The primary camera has a 1/1.953″ 50MP Sony LYT-600 sensor with OIS, and the ultrawide camera has an 8MP sensor. There is a 16MP selfie camera. The rear camera can shoot 4K 60fps videos.
Finally, the iQOO Neo 10R runs on Android 15-based FuntouchOS 15. The brand has promised three major OS updates for the phone.
