Reviews for the Vivo iQOO Neo7

70% iQoo Neo 7 5G review: Affordable gaming performer
Source: Gadgets Now English
iQoo Neo 7 5G is a powerful phone and iQoo has got the pricing right. While people may have some apprehensions about the new MediaTek SoC, other upgrades such as faster charging speed, better display, loud speakers and software make this phone an ideal offering with Rs 30,000 asking price. A polycarbonate back, underwhelming speakers and a not-so-good camera may be deal-breakers for those looking at the phone from the overall package perspective and not as a gaming-centric offering. Other phones in this segment include the Pixel 6a and Nothing Phone (1). However, none of them offers a gaming performance like the iQoo Neo 7 5G.

78% iQOO Neo 7 Review: Fast and Furious!
Source: Tech PP English
The iQOO Neo 7 is a smartphone with really good performance for a decent price. The good display, the amazing speakers, the great battery life, and the superfast charging pull the device up a notch. The addition of an ultrawide or telephoto camera would have been better.

86% iQOO Neo 7 Review: Great Gaming, But What Else?
Source: Gadgetbyte Nepal English
Having said that, I believe iQOO could’ve made it 10/10 by including an ultrawide sensor and a good set of stereo speakers. And if you look at the competition, we’re going to see some exciting midrange phones in a month or two. Like the Xiaomi 13 Lite, OnePlus Nord 3, and Samsung Galaxy A54. These phones might not go toe-to-toe with iQOO in terms of performance, but they could still deliver better value overall. Thus making Neo 7’s appeal just a bit weaker. So I really think iQOO should’ve included an ultrawide camera and good speakers on this phone. Whose component cost really shouldn’t have cost iQOO that much! Yeah, that’s definitely a missed opportunity here. iQOO Neo 7 does almost everything right for a killer midrange phone under INR 30,000. Especially in terms of performance. There are a few compromises here and there—like you don't get an ultrawide camera or a decent set of stereo speakers—but if you can look past these things, iQOO Neo 7 stands out profoundly. Not just as a gaming phone, but as a well-balanced midrange phone.

iQOO Neo 7 Review – Best Phone Under 30,000?
Source: Cashify English
The iQOO Neo 7 is a solid all-rounder mid-range phone under 30K. It packs everything you would want in an expensive phone and excels in almost every aspect. The phone can run demanding games at high settings, has a beautiful AMOLED display for content consumption and has a big 5000mAh battery to back all of this. Paired with 120W fast charging, you don’t have to wait long before getting back on your phone. The 64MP main camera takes excellent shots in daylight and I am really impressed to see that iQOO has launched the phone with Android 13 out of the box. So, is it worth the 30K price tag? Definitely a big yes. iQOO Neo 7 is a great option for anyone who is hungry for power and wants a good all-rounder phone at a mid-range price.

iQOO Neo 7 5G review: Ticks right boxes for performance-centric smartphone
Source: Business Standard English
At Rs 29,999 onwards, the iQOO Neo 7 5G is a performance-centric smartphone good for mobile gaming experience. It has a thin-and-lightweight construction, which is a plus from a usability perspective. It has a good screen and loud speakers that add to the good multimedia experience besides gaming experience. It could have been an all-rounder if it had the cameras to match the price.

iQOO Neo 7 price in India is Rs 29,999 for the 8GB + 128GB model and Rs 33,999 for the 12GB + 256GB model. The phone comes in Interstellar Black and Frost Blue colours. The company is offering Rs 1,500 flat discount when paid through HDFC, ICICI and SBI cards. There is an extra Rs 2,000 exchange bonus and no-cost EMI. At the given price, iQOO Neo 7 is a good option for those who are planning buy a decent Android smartphone for gaming. The smartphone comes with a fair a 6.78-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate, MediaTek Dimensity 8000 SoC and Android 13 OS out of the box. We feel the smartphone ticks almost all the boxes for almost all kinds of buyers except those who are planning to buy a smartphone primarily for photography.

The iQOO Neo 7 performs well on all the promises that the brand had made for the smartphone. It is a super performer. Almost too good for a mid-range smartphone, it has a vibrant and responsive AMOLED display, and you get a pretty decent set of cameras.

80% iQoo Neo 7 5G Review: Unmatched Performance, But Is It An All-Rounder?
Source: NDTV Gadgets English
The iQoo Neo 7 5G gets many things right. It offers best-in-class performance with great battery life and fast charging. The big display and loud speakers also make this phone ideal for multimedia consumption. While the software has become better, there is still some room for improvement. A major plus point is that the iQoo Neo 7 5G comes with the latest software, unlike some other phones in this segment such as the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G (Review). Cameras are where the iQoo Neo 7 5G is not very versatile, and you have better options, such as the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G, in this segment. Even the Nothing Phone 1 (Review) can be considered if you want an ultra-wide camera, a unique design, and superior features such as wireless charging and an IP rating. However, if you are a gamer and have a budget of around Rs. 30,000, the iQoo Neo 7 5G can certainly be recommended.

80% iQOO Neo 7 review: Better and faster than most rivals in Rs 30,000 segment
Source: India Today English
I began this review by saying that the number 7 is often considered lucky and some brands with their 7th-gen smartphones have changed the game. iQOO Neo 7 is not a game changer because we've already seen similar features on other smartphones at the same price point in the past. However, Neo 7 will easily give rivals a run for the money for making the phone extremely feature-packed without increasing the price substantially. If your priority is a good display, gaming, and great battery life, the new iQOO Neo 7 won't disappoint. As a matter of fact, I would recommend you to buy it. For cameras and a clean Android experience, the Pixel 6a or Nothing Phone 1 remain unrivalled champions. This is mainly because the new iQOO phone lacks an ultra-wide camera. That does not mean the iQOO Neo 7 takes bad photos, but there's definitely scope for improvement. Design-wise, it's subjective, but I prefer Neo 7 over others in the segment. I find the iQOO Neo 7 highly portable and stylish. There are some areas the company can improve. For instance, I do not like the size and placement of the volume and power buttons on the right. The slim buttons and their low positioning is slightly inconvenient to use. The speaker grill at the bottom is also quite narrow, which gets clogged while holding the phone in landscape orientation with your right hand. But these are tiny flaws and regular customers will get used to them in no time.

The iQOO Neo7 is a power-packed, performance-oriented device that will turbocharge your gaming. Its captivating display should also be a good selling point. The design is nothing out of the ordinary, though that’s just my personal opinion, and the handset could use a telephoto or ultra-wide shooter. However, I feel that for its target audience, the iQOO Neo7 has all the right ingredients.

The Vivo iQOO Neo7 Racing is undoubtedly an exceptional deal in the mid-range smartphone segment, and it also got lots of interesting things for users. You won’t face any problems with the performance, display, and battery aspects. But, the major concern would be the camera quality. Apart from this, everything about this smartphone sounds incredible. However, the phone, at the time we are reviewing, is only released in the domestic market, which is none other than mainland China. But still, if you are looking for an alternative option, we recommend you to check out the Xiaomi Redmi K60 for overall specs. Finally, choose a phone based on your requirements.

Not every phone could be perfect and there are some factors where the iQOO Neo 7 messed up. You will obtain good camera results, but the video recording is just average. However, all of the aspects of this phone are quite good, and an impressive deal. But sadly, at the time we are reviewing, the Neo 7 is exclusive to China. If the company launched this phone in another country, we will update that. On the other hand, if you want to go full-fledged gaming-centric phone, we would recommend you go with the Asus ROG Phone 6 for now. Though, you might have to increase your budget to some extent. If your budget is tight and you are looking for an alternative phone in the same price range, definitely check out the Xiaomi Redmi K50 Ultra smartphone. But if you are looking for casual gaming with splendid performance and a bit of tweaking of camera features, you should definitely check out the iQOO Neo 7 smartphone.
