After having talked so much about the official announcements and many other leaks that originated about the iQOO Neo3 In recent weeks, it has already been presented and launched as the high-performance terminal for games as we have been making known.

The first thing we highlight about this new mobile is its design, since it is as similar as that of other gaming devices. Gaming smartphones generally don't have screen bezels as narrow as this device. At first glance, it would look like another standard high-end. But this is something positive from our point of view, of course; We emphasize it as a bad thing.

The rear section of this mobile has a gradient and a rear photographic module that is rectangular and contains three cameras and a double LED flash. On the sides we find the volume buttons, a fingerprint reader and the on / off / lock button.

At a technical level, a 6.57-inch IPS LCD technology screen is the main thing to see. It produces a FullHD + resolution, a 98% sRGB color gamut, DCI-P3 and has HDR10 technology. It also features a 20: 9 aspect ratio with a screen-to-body ratio that exceeds 90% and generates a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz, making it ideal for playing games at a high frame rate per second. This last point also guarantees an unparalleled fluidity and smoothness of the content, which is much higher than the 60 Hz that we find in the vast majority of today's mobiles.

The iQOO Neo3 arrives with the promised Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 de, octa-core chipset that has the following core grouping: 1x Cortex-A77 at 2.84 GHz + 3x Cortex-A77 at 2.42 GHz + 4x Cortex-A55 at 1.8 GHz. Therefore, the Adreno 650 GPU is the under the hood of this powerful smartphone. And if we add to this the UFS 3.1 storage system, we have a combination of high performance. In itself, the ROM options are 128/256 GB, while those of RAM are 6/8/12 GB, although the type of RAM cards it boasts is not LPDDR5, but LPDDR4.

As for the battery, we have a battery that has a capacity of 4,500 mAh. Best of all, it comes with 44W super fast charging technology, which guarantees to charge from empty to full in approx. an hour, which is very little time for such a size. This is through the USB type C port that is located on its lower edge.

We also received Android 10 customized with the company's interface, which is iQOO UI. Of course, we cannot ignore the 5G connectivity in this model, which is offered by the X55 modem that is coupled in the SD865 chipset. Options such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS are not in short supply is this new gaming alternative.

Another great feature that the iQOO Neo3 boasts are its dual stereo speakers, which promise a high quality immersive sound experience for the good reproduction of multimedia content and games. This was something that was announced days before the launch of this high-end. Also, regarding gaming functions and features, a liquid cooling system for heat dissipation and Multi-Turbo 3.0 function They are the ones that are put at the forefront to offer an unparalleled gaming experience, among others.

48 MP camera for a good photographic section

The main trigger that is housed in the rear triple camera module boasts of a 48 megapixel resolution and a focal aperture f / 1.79 that guarantees good light reception for photos with clarity and good definition.

The other two lenses that pair this camera are a 8 MP wide angle with aperture f / 2.0 and another macro with f / 2.4 for photos very close to the lens. For selfies and more there is a 16 MP sensor housed in the in-screen hole that is positioned in the upper right corner.
