The Vivo iQOO Neo9s Pro Plus represents the zenith of the Neo9 generation, integrating top-tier flagship computing, advanced biometric security, and an enlarged power reservoir. At its core is the industry-leading 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 octa-core processor, featuring a Cortex-X4 prime core clocked at 3.3 GHz, three Cortex-A720 performance cores at 3.2 GHz, two Cortex-A720 cores at 3.0 GHz, and two Cortex-A520 efficiency cores at 2.3 GHz, paired with the Adreno 750 graphics engine. The hardware is reinforced by high-speed LPDDR5X RAM, ultra-fast UFS 4.0 flash storage, and Vivo's dedicated Q1 Supercomputing Chip, delivering frame-rate interpolation up to 144fps and real-time super-resolution gaming. Thermal control is managed by a substantial 6043mm² Canopy Vapor Chamber Liquid Cooling System that prevents core throttling under heavy competitive gameplay.
Visuals are showcased on a premium 6.78-inch 1.5K LTPO AMOLED display (1260 x 2800 pixels) with a 20:9 aspect ratio, 453 ppi density, and an 89.7% screen-to-body ratio. The display delivers an ultra-smooth 144Hz adaptive refresh rate, 300Hz touch sampling rate (reaching an instantaneous 2000Hz touch response rate for lightning-fast competitive responses), and an eye-catching peak brightness of up to 3000 nits. Supporting 1 billion colors, HDR10+, 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, and Wet Hand Touch technology, the screen guarantees fluid motion and comfortable viewing. Crucially, the phone upgrades the biometrics to a 3D Ultrasonic Single-Point Under-Display Fingerprint Sensor, offering near-instantaneous unlocking even with wet or greasy fingers.
In the camera department, the device sports a pro-grade dual 50MP imaging system headlined by the 50 MP Sony IMX921 VCS true-color sensor (f/1.9 aperture, 1/1.49" sensor size, PDAF, and hardware Optical Image Stabilization), accompanied by a 50 MP 119-degree ultra-wide angle camera (Samsung JN1 sensor). This setup produces vivid, true-to-life images in challenging low-light conditions and supports 8K UHD video recording at 30fps and 4K footage at 60fps with gyro-EIS electronic stabilization. Selfies are handled by a 16 MP punch-hole front camera.
A standout upgrade over previous Neo models is the enlarged 5500 mAh dual-cell lithium-polymer battery supported by Vivo's 120W FlashCharge wired protocol, which charges the device from 1% to 70% in only 17 minutes and reaches a full 100% in around 28 minutes. Measuring 8.0mm in thickness and weighing 193 grams, it carries an IP54 dust and splash resistance rating. Additional premium features include dual stereo loudspeakers with Hi-Res Audio certification, an infrared (IR) blaster, Wi-Fi 7, full-function NFC, and comprehensive Dual 5G SIM standby connectivity.
