The verdict, up front

Performance-per-yuan, undiluted.

Neo 7 is iQOO doing what it does best — a near-flagship Dimensity 8200, 120 W charging and an OIS Sony main at a price mainstream brands can't match. The missing IP rating and filler lenses are the trade. For gaming and charging speed per dollar it is a value standout.
