The iQOO brand, owned by Vivo, presented a new iQOO Neo9S Pro+ smartphone in China, as well as the iQOO Watch GT watch and iQOO TWS 1i headphones.
iQOO Neo9S Pro+
Vivo iQOO Neo9S Pro+, despite the terrible, multi-part name, turns out to be quite a nice design, based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor , compatible with LPDDR5X and UFS 4.0 memories. It also has a very decent AMOLED display with LTPO, 6.78-inch diagonal, 2800x1260 pixel resolution and image refresh rate up to 144 Hz. It is powered by a 5500 mAh battery, charging with a power of 120 W, and the system platform is OriginOS 4 based on Android 14. The smartphone has a 16-megapixel selfie camera with f/2.45 aperture and two 50-megapixel rear cameras - the main one with a matrix Sony IMX921 with optical image stabilization and f/1.88 aperture and wide-angle with f/2.0 aperture. Generally, it is a model related to Vivo iQOO Neo9S Pro, but with a different processor, battery and main camera. Prices are 2,999 yuan for the 12+256 GB version and 4,099 yuan for 16 GB + 1 TB. After conversion, it's 415 and 565 dollars.

iQOO Watch GT
iQOO Watch GT is a watch resembling an Apple smartwatch with a rectangular 1.85-inch OLED screen with a resolution of 390 x 450 px and a brightness of 600 nits. The watch has GPS, NFC and optional eSIM - and of course it can also transmit calls from a smartphone, it has a speaker and a microphone. The device, of course, offers typical smartwatch functions, but it works in the company's Blue OS system. The battery is supposed to last up to 21 days, but with eSIM turned on - 9 days. The watch costs 500 yuan for the Bluetooth version and 800 for the eSIM variant - that's $70 and $110.

iQOO TWS 1i
The iQOO TWS 1i headphones feature support for the LC3 codec and low sound delay - 55 ms. They also offer IP54 tightness and batteries sufficient for 10 hours of listening (up to 45 hours with the case). Unfortunately, they don't have ANC - but the low price of 100 yuan ($15) rather compensates for it.
