The appearance of iQOO Neo 3 last year was a clean flow against the background of the price increase of Snapdragon 865 models. The combination of flagship chips and high brush LCD screens was used to bring the smooth sensory experience to the full. In terms of pricing (from 2698 yuan), it was lower than the competitive K30 Pro, which was at 3000 yuan and lacked high brush screens at that time. This set of differentiated combination boxing can be said to be relatively successful.
Now its iterative product iQOO Neo 5 has also been officially released yesterday. What is the performance of this generation of products? Now let's go through Love to play computer games To learn more about it.
See the following figure for detailed specifications and parameters:
Appearance/screen
The front of the iQOO Neo 5 is the central perforated screen design used by more and more domestic manufacturers this year. Compared with the competitive K40 series, the aperture is slightly larger, and the R angle radian is smaller, making the fuselage more square.
The iQOO Neo 5 on our hand is the color matching of night shadow black. Under the light, it is a gradual tone of black with dark blue; The camera is similar to the iQOO 7's two stage cloud design. Since the back of the fuselage is made of AG fog glass, the texture is significantly improved compared with the previous generation of iQOO Neo 3.
The middle frame of the iQOO Neo 5 is made of plastic (with spraying treatment), and there is a layer of bracket between the middle frame and the screen. Compared with the flagship machine, this integration is less good, but after all, the positioning and cost of the machine should be considered.
This time, the screen uses a 6.62-inch, 2400 × 1080 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate AMOLED screen (probably the same as the iQOO 7). Compared with the previous generation Neo 3's LCD screen, the screen edge and around the hole digging will no longer be dark, which is very important to improve the quality of the phone, and also to get rid of the shadow dragging problem of the LCD screen.
The measured manual global maximum brightness is 405 nits, and the local maximum brightness is 557 nits. Under the excitation brightness, the global maximum brightness is 590 nits, and the local maximum brightness is 990 nits.
Rainbow lines will appear when the screen is viewed from a large angle (more obvious under the white background), which can be judged as a hard screen; The DC dimming option is provided in the system settings, which is an advantage over the K40 series of the current firmware version.
performance
This iQOO Neo 5 uses a combination of Snapdragon 870, LPDDR4X memory, and UFS 3.1 flash memory. Due to the high load power consumption performance of Snapdragon 888, recently the Snapdragon 870 has become a more competitive dessert configuration from 2000 to 3000.
In terms of theoretical performance, let's first look at a wave of test data:
CPU
GPU
Flash Memory
When the Monster mode is turned on, GeekBench's score of single core and multi-core is higher than that of the same 870 Xiaomi 10S. However, I don't know whether it is because of the engineering machine that the GFXBench test for the GPU is significantly behind. Its performance is only slightly ahead of several Snapdragon 865 models, and the score of the 3D Mark is the same as that of the Xiaomi 10S.
In terms of games, Peace Elite unlocked 90 frames HDR high-definition image quality, we found that iQOO Neo 5's scheduling strategy in the game is relatively conservative, which may be the trigger of the temperature control threshold. After a period of time, 60 frames will fall directly from 90 frames and be locked. No matter whether it is a friend's model or the previous iQOO 5, there has been no frame locking. However, the performance of 60 frames in the second half of the game is quite stable.
However, in Glory of the King, 90 frames/ultra-high resolution/extreme image quality did not drop frames. The frame rate fluctuation was only 2.4 after 14 minutes of play, which was very smooth.
In addition, iQOO Neo 5 also has a built-in display chip from Pixelworks, which can insert frames for some games to further improve the frame rate. At present, there are nine game supports, such as Collapse 3 and Peace Elite. In the game, you can slide out of the toolbox to open the patching option. Peace Elite can patched to 90 or 120 frames after turning on the limit 60 frame mode. The picture is really smoother than the original 60 frames. At the same time, opening the frame rate monitoring software can find that the GPU rendering output is still 60 frames, That is to say, compared with native rendering of 120 frames (currently not supported by Eating Chicken, even if it is supported, the power consumption will explode), iQOO's frame insertion method can better balance the high frame game experience and power consumption.

As a mid tier sub flagship focusing on cost performance, The camera configuration of the iQOO Neo 5 will not be very prominent. The main camera is 48 million pixels IMX598. This 1/2 inch bottom CMOS is very common on vivo models. Although the CMOS hardware strength is not the top, it is good to have optical anti shake support. The secondary camera is a 13 million pixel ultra wide angle/macro camera and a 2 million pixel black and white camera, On the whole, the level of GM1+8 million ultra wide angle modules of the previous generation has been improved.

Endurance/charging
In terms of endurance, the iQOO Neo 5 has 68% of remaining battery power after 2.5 hour endurance test of Io, which is slightly inferior to the remaining 70% of the K40 Pro, but it still belongs to the upper middle level in this wave of new aircraft this year. Considering that the iQOO Neo 5 is equipped with 4400mAh dual cell batteries that discharge faster in theory, the system can optimize the endurance.
In terms of charging, the iQOO Neo 5 adopts a 66W wired fast charging scheme, which is second only to the 120W on iQOO 7 in terms of nominal power.
According to the actual measurement, the charging starts from 1%, and starts from 5 minutes to 25%, 10 minutes to 42%, 30 minutes to 95%, and it takes 33 minutes to 100%, which is one minute slower than the official nominal 30 minutes.
During the charging process, the maximum power is 54 to 55W, but it drops to about 41 and 42W in less than 2 minutes. It drops to the third gear 33 to 35W in the eighth minute, and it lasts for 14 minutes. The mobile phone shows that there is still about 4 minutes of pulse output after charging to 100%.
At present, the 66W fast charge of iQOO Neo 5 is still the fastest charging scheme except for a few hundred watt fast charges. Although it is different from the low voltage and large current output of the European and Canadian system, the final effect is still very close. At the same time, the battery capacity of 4400mAh is also more secure than that of the iQOO 7 with only 4000mAh.
System experience and others
Like all new vivo computers, the iQOO Neo 5 is equipped with the new OriginOS 1.0. Compared with the original Funtouch OS/iQOO UI, the biggest visual change is the UI.
(OriginOS Huarong Grid Desktop and Normal Desktop Mode)
For example, the Huarong grid desktop integrated with iOS groupware and Windows Phone style can stretch and arrange application icons and various components freely in a space of at least 1 × 1 and at most 2 × 2 (icons). The design of hiding icon names also makes the desktop appear simple and beautiful. Of course, those who don't like this desktop can also switch back to the ordinary desktop with one button.
In addition to the UI, the overall foundation is that of the Funtouch OS. I personally think that at least the performance on this phone is OK, and some newly added functions need to be improved. For example, the application window function can only be opened in multi task. If there is a quick start mechanism, it will be better; Some of the original "features" are still the same. For example, the 120Hz refresh rate does not support the B station, Netease Cloud and other audio-visual applications. Installing applications through third-party apps still requires logging on to the vivo account and entering a password for verification.
In general, potential users may not buy vivo because of OriginOS, but this wave of new systems may make it easier for people who previously rejected it to accept.
In other aspects, iQOO Neo 5 is equipped with a Z-axis linear motor, and the vibration feedback tuning is relatively powerful, making up for the weakness of Neo 3's rotor motor. iQOO also continues to retain the skin of the analog mechanical keyboard in the default Baidu input method; The dual speakers are ordinary earpiece dual speakers, and the actual listening sense is slightly weaker than K40 Pro.
summary
Although the iQOO Neo 3 of last year received a good response, it is undoubtedly a product with many compromises. For example, in order to control the cost, LCD screen and rotor motor are used, and the camera is GM1 without optical anti shake.
The iQOO Neo 5 has been upgraded in many aspects, including 120Hz OLED screen, Snapdragon 870, 66W flash charge, linear motor, IMX598 main camera supporting optical anti shake, and the new Origin OS. The overall workmanship is also closer to the higher positioning iQOO 7, becoming more balanced and comprehensive. At the same time, the price has declined due to fierce competition from friends.
In horizontal comparison, the current direct competitor of iQOO Neo 5 is naturally the Redmi K40. Their appearance design and performance configuration are generally at the same level. The biggest advantage of iQOO Neo 5 is undoubtedly fast charging speed, while the screen material is K40 better (but there is no DC dimming for the moment). In terms of camera, iQOO module hardware is dominant, and K40 can only differentiate by using long focus and macro. Redmi certainly has the price advantage of 300 yuan lower than the configuration, but under the current background of various shortages, it may be more realistic to know who has the goods to buy.
