Compared with high-end flagship models, mobile phones in the 2K price segment, in the impression of most people, are always imperfect, or the performance configuration is weak, or the game ability is "pulled down", it is difficult to meet all the needs of users. But this situation may change with the release of iQOO Neo5S. Some people say that iQOO Neo5S is currently the most worthwhile 2K price segment mobile phone, and some people call iQOO Neo5S "all-round warrior". So, how exactly does this phone actually perform? Is it really as good as everyone thinks it is? Let's find out.
2K price segment mobile phone performance ceiling?
High-performance performance has always been the core highlight of iQOO mobile phones, this iQOO Neo5S is no exception, which not only carries the flagship processor Snapdragon 888, but also adds a new unique chip Pro, which greatly improves the performance performance of mobile phones, AntuTu measured performance running score, iQOO Neo5S directly reached a good score of 838491 points, becoming one of the highest performance running points in the current price model.
For the Snapdragon 888 processor, I believe many people are concerned about the heat situation, for this problem, iQOO Neo5S also gave the best solution - high conductivity rare earth heat dissipation system. iQOO Neo5S has added rare earth elements lanthanum (La) and cerium (Ce) to the mobile phone heat dissipation system, which greatly improves the thermal conductivity of the mobile phone. Coupled with large-area graphite plates and liquid-cooled vaporized plates, it covers the mobile phone space in an all-round way, thus greatly ensuring the stability and efficient performance of mobile phone heat dissipation.
According to the test results, in the "Original God" game with high requirements for mobile phone performance, after a long time of running, the maximum temperature of the iQOO Neo5S fuselage is only 34.5 ° C, and the temperature performance is relatively stable, and there is no high and low situation during the period, even in the multiplayer team mode, the mobile phone has not overheated. It can be seen that the newly added high-conductivity rare earth heat dissipation system of iQOO Neo5S is still quite outstanding in temperature control performance.
Can low-frame games also have a high-frame experience?
Speaking of games, we have to mention the iQOO Neo5S newly added unique chip Pro, the advantage of the chip is that it can effectively share the graphics pressure of the core processor, while reducing the power consumption of the mobile phone, it also realizes the game interpolation function, bringing "improving the frame rate" and "optimizing power consumption" Two game modes.
Among them, the "Increase Frame Rate" mode can increase the native 60 frames or 90 frames game to 120 frames, enabling a higher frame rate game experience. The operation strategy of the "Optimized Power Consumption" mode is the opposite, after the game frame rate is turned on, the game frame rate will be reduced to 45 frames to achieve the effect of reducing power consumption, and then the game will be increased to 90 frames through the interpolation function, so as to achieve "low power consumption and high frame rate" game performance.
Taking the "Optimized Power Consumption" mode as an example, after the game of "Original God" is turned on, it can be clearly felt that the game screen is much smoother, the display effect is clearer and more delicate, and even the special effects when releasing skills look more cool. Whether it is a "monster fighting" upgrade or a multiplayer team mode, the game performance is very smooth and stable, compared to before the opening of the really great improvement effect.
However, it is worth noting that although the game experience has been significantly improved after the "Optimized Power Consumption" mode is turned on, reaching a smooth performance of 90 frames, the measured game frame rate is still around 45 frames. This is because the current test software can only monitor the game frame rate at the GPU level, and the iQOO Neo5S interpolation function only achieves a high frame rate game performance at the screen display level, so the game frame rate after interpolation cannot be tested.
It is beautiful not to take pictures with a mobile phone
Compared with the eye-catching performance configuration and game performance, iQOO Neo5S is more conservative in terms of imagery, using a 48-megapixel OIS optical image stabilization triple camera, respectively: 48MP OIS main camera + 13MP wide-angle lens + 2MP black and white lens. In terms of hardware parameters alone, iQOO Neo5S is not particularly brilliant, but fortunately, its image tuning is good, and a number of algorithm optimization functions have been added, supporting super night scenes, 2.5cm macro, etc., which is very easy to meet daily shooting needs.

From the real-time sample, we can see that the imaging ability of the 48-megapixel OIS main camera of iQOO Neo5S is good, the resolution is very high, and the picture taken has a high degree of clarity. And the color performance is more gorgeous, which can bring great rendering effects to the photo, which is very pleasing to the eye visually. Although the details are not very well placed, it does not affect the overall photo perception.
(Ultra Wide Angle)
Ultra-wide angle shooting is also a lens that we use more in daily life, the advantage of iQOO Neo5S is that the shooting range is large, the field of view is wide enough, reaching 120 ° ultra-wide angle shooting, which can shoot more scenes into the picture, and then cooperate with the color adjustment scheme that is not weaker than the main camera, so it is still good in photo viewing. The only drawback is a slight distortion at the edges of the frame, which is expected to be improved in subsequent updates.
(Macro shooting)
For most people, macro photography is simply close to the object for close-up shooting, almost no technical at all, and iQOO Neo5S in order to optimize this experience, specially added a professional bokeh effect, so that the subject can be more prominent, more ornamental, greatly improving the playability of mobile phone macro photography, which is still quite good.
The new design is full of texture
In terms of design this time, the biggest change in iQOO Neo5S is undoubtedly the improvement of the texture of the mobile phone, including: a camera module made of metal materials, a family-style visual cloud design and an integrated molding of the fuselage. In particular, in terms of color matching, iQOO Neo5S also brings three new designs, namely: night space, sunset canyon and orange jump, and the model shown in this article is the "orange light jump" color matching version.
The difference in this color scheme is that on the basis of the classic orange element, it also adds a texture design similar to the "pixel" style, especially in the well-lit environment, the whole body looks very shiny and vibrant. Coupled with the huge "NEO" logo, the recognition of the mobile phone is directly full.
On the front of the phone, iQOO Neo5S uses a 6.62-inch 120Hz streamer screen, which is designed for center punching holes, and the mobile phone border is also controlled very narrowly, almost reaching the effect of three sides of equal width, so that the entire mobile phone screen ratio looks quite high, especially when watching movies or playing games, when the display screen fills the entire screen, it can bring a very impactful visual experience.
Comprehensive guarantee of long-lasting battery life
As for the endurance that everyone cares about, iQOO Neo5S is also full of materials, not only built-in a 4500mAh large battery, but also added a dual-cell 66W flash charge with stronger charging performance. In simple terms, the advantage of dual-cell 66W flash charging is that compared with ordinary fast charging solutions, its charging efficiency is higher and more stable. Moreover, in order to further improve the charging reliability of iQOO Neo5S, a rare "rhodium ruthenium" metal coating is also used at the Type-C interface of the mobile phone to enhance the flash charge durability and be safer and more reliable to use.
According to the measured results, under the dual-cell 66W flash charge, the charging speed of iQOO Neo5S is indeed very fast, 10 minutes into 40% of the power, 30 minutes to 92%, full of 100% power and finally used for 37 minutes. This also means that after the night forgot to charge the mobile phone do not have to worry, get up in the morning to wash the time, iQOO Neo5S can quickly "return blood" to meet the needs of the whole day.
After full charge, the mobile phone battery life test began, during which 1 hour of online video, 1 hour of Online Bluetooth music, 30 minutes of 4K video recording... After a total of 4.5 hours of continuous heavy use, the final iQOO Neo5S remaining 61% of the power, of which playing 30 minutes of "Glory of the King" only consumes 7% of the power, and the overall battery life performance can be described as quite outstanding.
After the above understanding, it is not difficult to find that although iQOO Neo5S is positioned in the 2000 price range, its product strength has long surpassed most mobile phones of the same level, including the flagship performance of the Snapdragon 888 processor and the e-sports game capabilities given by the unique chip Pro... Undoubtedly, iQOO Neo5S has an advantage that is difficult to surpass in the same level of mobile phones, and truly achieves the leading level. And this is also the charm of the iQOO Neo5S mobile phone, so that consumers can experience the expressiveness of flagship products with a more affordable price.
