With the appearance of a variety of mobile phones equipped with a new generation of Snapdragon 8 processors, the battle of the flagship at the beginning of 2022 has officially begun, and this is also for many users who want to change their machines during the Spring Festival, adding more choices. However, although the Snapdragon 8 processor mobile phones on the market currently have quite excellent comprehensive strength, the price is generally higher, making many users who pursue experience but are under budget prohibitive. If you want to have a flagship experience on a limited budget, #iQOO Neo5S# might be a good choice.
In the past two years, in order to seize more market share, in addition to accelerating the layout of the high-end market, manufacturers have also launched fierce competition in other price segments, especially in the mid-end market, which is regarded as a must-compete place in the mobile phone market. With the continuous intensification of the "inner volume" situation, there are also many powerful products in the mid-end market, and the iQOO Neo5S we want to talk about today is one of the most representative products.
Powerful "double core", the experience is doubled
As we all know, iQOO has always been quite sincere in terms of product stacking, and the same is true for iQOO Neo5S. So without further ado, let's take a look at the performance of the iQOO Neo5S. In terms of hardware, it is equipped with Qualcomm's flagship processor Snapdragon 888, although this chip was controversial at the beginning of the release because of power consumption, but the overall real energy is not questioned. Based on hardware such as the 5nm process, the Adreno 660 graphics processor and the Hexagon 780 sixth-generation AI engine, it can comprehensively enhance the user's daily use of the game experience.
In addition, iQOO Neo5S also brings an enhanced version of LPDDR5 and an enhanced version of UFS 3.1 on this basis, which further enhances the comprehensive performance strength of the whole machine. In the Performance Test of Antutu Mobile Phone, iQOO Neo5S got an excellent score of 838491 points, which can be said to be the existence of the ceiling level in the same price range mobile phone.
The most surprising thing is that in addition to the Snapdragon 888 and many of the industry's top hardware, iQOO Neo5S also adopts a new generation of unique display chip Pro, on the basis of the previous generation of "frame rate improvement" and "high frame low power consumption" functions, it also brings many optimization functions, which can optimize the user's gaming experience from all dimensions.
With the blessing of powerful hardware configuration, the actual performance of iQOO Neo5S is naturally quite outstanding. In the game link, iQOO Neo5S supports the original 120 frame ultra-high frame rate mode of "Glory of kings", and the ultimate picture effect can make the user's game experience more immersive. Moreover, even in such a game environment, iQOO Neo5S can still control the average frame rate at 114.9 frames, although the frame rate fluctuated slightly at the beginning of the game, but the frame rate after normal games is still quite stable, and the overall experience is very good.
Speaking of which, I believe many friends will be curious about what kind of optimization the solo chip Pro can bring in the game experience. Here, we take the "high frame low power consumption" mode as an example, the role of this function is to assume half of the GPU's screen rendering load after turning on, effectively alleviate the GPU's picture rendering pressure, and achieve low-power performance. At the same time, it can also increase the game frame rate through interpolation, so as to achieve a balance between power consumption and experience.
For example, in the relatively hardware-eating "Original God", after turning on the "high frame low power consumption" mode, the overall frame rate performance of iQOO Neo5S can be said to be quite eye-catching, not only the average frame rate can be stabilized at 44.8 frames for a long time (the actual number of frames X2), the frame rate fluctuation index is only 0.6, so the performance is better than many flagship mobile phones. Most importantly, the game iQOO Neo5S does not appear any stuttering situation, even in the face of large rendering scenes or transitions, iQOO Neo5S can also ensure absolute fluency, coupled with "high frame low power consumption" for the game frame rate improvement, the overall experience is a word, cool!
For Snapdragon 888 mobile phones, I believe many friends will worry about the power consumption problem affecting the machine experience, after all, many flagship mobile phones equipped with Snapdragon 888 processors last year have the problem of power consumption "overturning". However, in the iQOO Neo5S, there is no need to worry about power consumption. In terms of heat dissipation, in addition to the heat dissipation system composed of large-area graphite plate and VC liquid-cooled vapor heating plate, iQOO Neo5S also adopts a high thermal conductivity alloy material that adds lanthanum and cerium rare earth elements, making the thermal conductivity of iQOO Neo5S reach 200% of the previous model, which can effectively ensure the stability of the power consumption of Snapdragon 888 in high-performance output scenarios.
As shown in the figure, after running "Original God" for 30 minutes using iQOO Neo5S, the front temperature of the mobile phone was measured by the instrument to be 34.1 °C, the overall temperature was completely within the controllable range, and there was no hot hand at all during use.
In terms of battery life, iQOO Neo5S has a built-in 4500mAh battery, and the hardware base is at the middle and upper level of mobile phones at the same price, which can provide users with a sufficient sense of power security. In actual use, simulating daily use scenarios, after a total of four and a half hours of heavy testing such as one-hour online video, 30 minutes of Glory of kings, 30 minutes of Peace Elite, etc., iQOO Neo5S still has 61% of the remaining power, and it is very good in power control.
In terms of charging, iQOO Neo5S supports 66W flash charge technology, which can charge the power from 0% to 100% in 37 minutes, and the ultra-fast charging speed is enough for most users to use the fragmented time in life to quickly return blood when the phone is in a hurry.
The images are outstanding, and it is easy to shoot large films
In addition to performance, iQOO Neo5S also put a lot of effort into image performance. The rear features a camera module that includes a 48MP OIS main camera, a 13MP wide-angle/macro lens, and a 2MP monochrome lens. In addition, iQOO Neo5S is also equipped with many advanced software algorithms, and the combination of soft and hard software can bring a very good shooting experience.
From the sample below, it is not difficult to see that in the well-lit outdoor scenes, the main camera imaging performance of the iQOO Neo5S is quite good. Not only is the detail rich and the picture is clear, the expression of the color is also very moderate, there is no excessive sense of smearing and optimization, making the whole photo give people a very comfortable feeling.
In wide-angle shooting, the iQOO Neo5S has a large 120° field of view, which can include more scenes without having to retreat far when shooting in large scenes. Moreover, as can be seen from the photos, the scene taken by the iQOO Neo5S ultra-wide angle does not have distortion and deformation, etc., and the overall visual impact is strong.
In terms of night shooting, whether indoor or outdoor, the performance of the iQOO Neo5S is remarkable. First of all, in the indoor scene, the iQOO Neo5S is very good in both the suppression of highlights and the performance of details. At the same time, the transition between light and dark in the picture is also very natural, and the overall performance can achieve satisfactory results. In the outdoor scene, the iQOO Neo5S film rate is still very high, not only the overall details of the picture are excellent, there are no ghosting, glare and other issues, coupled with the blessing of the super night scene algorithm, the overall imaging effect can be said to be completely inferior to the flagship mobile phone of the main image.
There is material and beauty, all-round excellent
Of course, in this era of appearance, the appearance design of mobile phones is also very important. The design of iQOO Neo5S is also well received by users. The color matching of this iQOO Neo5S in my hand, called "Sunset Canyon", is mainly based on gradient colors as a whole, and can present different colors under different lights and angles, giving people a very dreamy visual effect.
In addition, the entire appearance of iQOO Neo5S is also quite stylish and exquisite, rounded and smooth at all angles, coupled with AG frosted glass with higher haze, making the whole machine not only look very good, but also very comfortable to hold, and it is not easy to stain fingerprints.
On the front of the fuselage, the iQOO Neo5S is equipped with a 6.62-inch center-perforated AMOLED direct screen, which supports up to 120Hz screen refresh rate, which can bring a better visual experience. In addition, the iQOO Neo5S screen also supports three-step adjustment of the refresh rate, as well as HDR10+/SGS two standard certifications, which can be said to be a very good high-score "screen".
Last review
Overall, iQOO Neo5S can be said to be a product full of sincerity. Not only has the strong performance of the same level of ceiling, the excellent ability of the rear triple camera, but also allows most users to cope with the all-weather shooting experience in various scenes, coupled with the fashionable and fashionable design, as well as the outstanding endurance performance, which fully illustrates the all-round performance of the machine, for friends who do not have a high budget and pursue flagship experience, I believe that iQOO Neo5S will be your good choice.
