iQOO Neo 10 Expected to Launch in India: Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and Flagship-Grade Features Tipped

iQOO Neo 10 is tipped to launch in India as a powerful midrange gaming phone with Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, 12GB RAM, Android 15, and 7,000mAh battery.

iQOO, a performance-centric sub-brand of vivo, is gearing up to launch the iQOO Neo 10 in India, following the recent release of the iQOO Neo 10R. While the Neo 10R delivered solid specifications for budget-conscious gamers, new leaks and benchmark results hint that the Neo 10 could be a more powerful, premium successor to the popular iQOO Neo 9 Pro.

 Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 SoC at the Core

A recent Geekbench listing spotted by 91Mobiles shows a new iQOO handset with the model number vivo I2405, believed to be the iQOO Neo 10. The device is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, Qualcomm's new chipset designed for upper-midrange phones.

The benchmark scores reveal a significant performance boost over the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, which powers the Neo 10R. The Neo 10 achieved 2,093 in single-core and 6,836 in multi-core performance, a considerable jump from the Neo 10R's scores of 1,927 and 5,047, respectively. This confirms that the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 will bring meaningful improvements for gaming and multitasking.

A True Successor to the Neo 9 Pro?

While the iQOO Neo 10R offered excellent value, it lacked the premium performance and features that made the Neo 9 Pro a fan favorite. If the Neo 10 delivers on its rumored specifications, it could bridge the gap between the affordable Neo 10R and the flagship iQOO 11 series.

With a powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, a high refresh rate AMOLED display, a massive battery, and ultra-fast charging, the iQOO Neo 10 could redefine what to expect from a midrange gaming phone.
