On December 27th, the iQOO Neo9 series was officially released, of which the starting price of the iQOO Neo9 standard version is 2299 yuan, 12+256GB version, and the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Redmi K70, the current 12+256GB version price is 2499 yuan, one is the "new dark horse", the other is the "cost-effective goalkeeper", the price difference is 200 yuan, who is more fragrant?
1. Appearance
iQOO Neo9 is very simple in appearance, the lens is arranged vertically independently, a bit of OnePlus Ace 2V taste, and this generation of iQOO Neo9 cancels the ancestral screen bracket, the overall look will be much better, followed by the weight is only about 190g, and the glass version is 7.99mm thick, which feels very comfortable. The Redmi K70 lens is a horizontal matrix design, with a slight layer.
The main difference is still in the middle frame and back cover, iQOO Neo9 uses a plastic middle frame and glass/plain leather back cover, while the Redmi K70 has a metal middle frame and a glass back cover, but I don't think this has much impact.
2. Screen and performance
The screen has its own merits, iQOO Neo9 is equipped with a 1.5K 8T all-weather super sensitive screen, supports 144Hz gaming refresh rate, and supports LTPO, 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, eye protection and power consumption are also greatly reduced. Redmi K70 uses2K resolution HuaxingC8Straight screen,support120HzRefresh rate,3840HzHigh-frequency PWM dimming,It can protect eyesight well with the blessing of Qingshan eye protection。
To be honest, the screen is quite a sight to behold.,Some people may say blind on the same screen.,Some people may say it's comfortable.,It is recommended to actually see if it's suitable for yourself.。
In terms of performance, it is all Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, but iQOO Neo9 focuses on gaming performance after all, and with the blessing of the self-developed e-sports chip Q1, it can better control large-scale games such as Genshin Impact and Reverse Water Cold.
3. Image and battery life
This is the home of iQOO Neo9,The rear main camera is equipped with50MPSonia IMX920,You know,This is the same main camera as the flagship model vivo X100,Its excellent performance has been shown in vivo X100,It is worth mentioning that,The same algorithm of the blue factory has also been devolved to Neo9,You can put 10,000 hearts in terms of image。 The main camera of the Redmi K70 is a 50MP Light and Shadow Hunter 800, and the performance in white balance and dark light environments will be slightly worse, not to mention the actual experience.
The battery iQOO Neo9 will be larger, 5160mAh, 160mAh higher than Redmi K70, and the charging speed is 120W, in fact, it is not bad, and the actual battery life depends on the measured data.
4. Miscellaneous
In addition, like a short-throw under-screen fingerprint, NFC, infrared remote control, and dual speakers, both of which are available, here is a brief guide to the better places of both sides.
iQOO Neo9's 9595X-axis transverse linear motor will feel better, and there will be stronger feedback when playing games, and the OriginOS 4 system is very silky, with fast APP startup speed, good scheduling, and excellent power consumption.
Redmi has dual-frequency GPS, which is more accurate and faster than single-frequency GPS positioning, and the performance of the surging system is also okay.
5. Summary
On the whole, iQOO Neo9 has Q1 chip, IM920 and orange system, Redmi K70 has a metal middle frame, 2K screen, dual-frequency GPS, the two models have their own characteristics, but in the case of the same configuration, iQOO Neo9 is cheaper than Redmi K70200, if there is no special demand, I think Neo9 is still more fragrant!
Quietly, the Redmi K70 may be forced to reduce the price later, and those who want to buy the K70 can wait a little longer!
