At the end of 2024, iQOO unveiled the iQOO Neo 10 and Neo 10 Pro in China, which was followed by the iQOO Neo 10 Pro+ last year. However, the company unveiled the iQOO Neo 11 equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite in November 2025 in China. A new leak reveals that the brand is now preparing to launch a new Neo 11 series phone in China. Here’s a look at the first details about this phone.

iQOO Neo 11’s first details emerge

According to tipster Smart Pikachu, the iQOO Neo 11 is scheduled to break cover in the second quarter of this year in China. However, he speculates that rising component costs may impact its rollout.

He revealed that the upcoming iQOO Neo 11 series phone will arrive with a minor upgrade in the chip department. It will swap the Snapdragon chip with a Dimensity SoC. It remains to be seen whether the device will feature the Dimensity 9500 or the toned-down Dimensity 9500s.

At present, there is no clarity about the final moniker of the phone. Therefore, it remains to be seen whether it will be called the iQOO Neo 11 Pro or something else. Apart from featuring a Dimensity chip, the rest of its specifications could be identical to the existing model.

Alleged iQOO Neo 11 Pro specifications (expected)

The Dimensity 9500 / 9500s-powered iQOO Neo 11 could feature a 6.82-inch AMOLED 1.5K 144Hz display, a 16-megapixel front camera, and a 50-megapixel (OIS) + 8-megapixel (ultra-wide) dual-camera setup. It may arrive with up to 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM, up to 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage, a 7,500mAh battery with 100W charging, an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor, and OriginOS 6-based Android 16.

In related news, a report claimed that iQOO has no plans to launch a Neo-branded phone in India this year. Therefore, the Neo 11 series phone is expected to remain exclusive to the Chinese market.
