iQOO, a popular Chinese smartphone brand, is gearing up for the launch of its iQOO Neo 8 series in China on May 23. Leading up to the event, the company has been gradually disclosing key specifications of the upcoming iQOO Neo 8 Pro model. In a recent poster release, iQOO confirmed that the device will feature an impressive 50-megapixel primary camera with optical image stabilization (OIS) support. The camera will utilize the renowned Sony IMX866VCS sensor, which is also found in Vivo’s X90 series (check out our review of Vivo X90 Pro+), known for its exceptional photography capabilities, particularly in low-light conditions.

While the primary camera details have been unveiled, iQOO is yet to disclose information about the secondary cameras on the iQOO Neo 8 Pro. It is speculated that the iQOO Neo 8, the base variant, may also sport a 50-megapixel primary shooter but potentially with a different sensor.

Additionally, reports suggest that the iQOO Neo 8 Pro will offer a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Powering the device will be the Dimensity 9200 Plus chipset coupled with a generous 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM. Storage options are expected to range up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. On the other hand, iQOO Neo 8 is expected to feature Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset.
