As the 618 promotion draws closer, mobile phone manufacturers are also gearing up to seize the promotion opportunity and boost sluggish sales. But at the same time, the aggressive layout of mobile phone manufacturers has also made the mid-range machine track as the main force of shipments more and more volatile.
On the evening of May 23, the Neo8 series released by iQOO launched the Pro model for the first time, with a limited time price starting from 3099 yuan; Known as the "most powerful mobile phone in the price segment", iQOO Neo8 was launched at the same time, with a limited time price starting from 2299 yuan. As a sub-series of the iQOO product line, Neo has always played the role of "mid-range cost performance", and this time the iQOO Neo series ushered in a configuration leap.
In terms of specific parameters, iQOO Neo8 Pro debuted the Dimensity 9200+ flagship 5G mobile platform, and the self-developed chip V1+ formed a "flagship dual core"; At the same time, it comes standard with 16GB large storage and 256GB large storage; It adopts the same Sony optical image stabilization main camera of the imaging flagship.
Dimensity 9200+ is MediaTek's latest flagship 5G mobile platform launched this month, using the second-generation TSMC 4nm process and the new generation ARM V9 architecture, eight-core CPU includes 1 ARM Cortex-X3 ultra-large core with a main frequency of up to 3.35GHz, 3 ARM Cortex-A715 large cores with a main frequency of up to 3.0GH and 4 ARM Cortex-A510 energy efficiency cores with a main frequency of 2.0GHz.
In addition, the iQOO Neo8 Pro comes standard with 16GB LPDDR5X and up to 512GB UFS4.0.
Dimensity 9200+ chip
Observer Network noted that since the launch of the "predecessor" Dimensity 9200+, the Dimensity 9200, it has been successively installed on the vivo X90 series, including X90, X90 Pro, and OPPO Find X6 flagship mobile phones. Among these mobile phones, the starting price of OPPO Find X6 is 4499 yuan, and the starting price of vivo's high-end flagship X90 series is also 3699 yuan.
