Apr. 23, 2020iQOO Neo 3: Specs and Features
Starting off with the design, iQOO Neo 3 5G does not look a whole lot different from the iQOO 3. You still get a punch-hole display on the front and a rectangular camera cutout on the rear. But, the device now has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, which also doubles as the power button.
iQOO Neo 3 5Gfeatures a6.57-inch Full-HD+ LCD displaywith a punch-hole cutout at the top right and a144Hz refresh rate. The company has swapped out a 60Hz AMOLED panel, found on the iQOO 3, for an LCD panel but I’m in favor of this decision due to the higher refresh rate. This display touts a 20:9 aspect ratio, 1080 x 2400 resolution, and HDR 10 support.
iQOO Neo 3 5G is the company’s first phone to support a higher refresh rate.
No, this is not a mid-range gaming phone. Instead, iQOO Neo 3 5G can be seen as the slimmed-down version of iQOO 3. It is powered by the Snapdragon 865 chipset, same as the iQOO 3.

Further, the device features atriple camera array helmed by a 48MP (f/1.79) sensoron the rear. There’s an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro camera onboard as well. You will also a 16MP (f/2.0) selfie snapper housed in the punch-hole at the top right.
