iQoo took the global smartphone market by storm with the launch of the iQoo 9 series - iQoo 9, iQoo 9 Pro, and iQoo 9 SE. The flagship device of the series, iQoo 9 Pro, ships with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. After that, the brand also launched a new smartphone iQoo Neo 6 which also has a Snapdragon 8 gen 1 processor.

Now, the latest report by GSMArena has suggested that a new smartphone named iQoo Neo 6 SE revealed the key specifications of the device. The smartphone will be the successor of the iQoo Neo 5 SE. 

However, there is no official announcement regarding the pricing and launch date of the smartphone. However, speculations are that the device will be launched somewhere around the end of May or the first half of June. Considering the price point of the iQoo Neo 6 5G, we can expect the smartphone to be priced somewhere around Rs 30,000

What can we see in iQoo Neo 6 SE?

iQoo Neo 6 SE features a 6.62-inch FHD+ OLED display coupled with a 120Hz refresh rate. It seems like the smartphone will get a punch-hole cutout for the placement of the selfie camera. The smartphone is said to be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor. 

The processor has already been seen in the Realme GT Neo 2 5G, and the upcoming iQoo device will give it tough competition. Another thing to notice here is that the competition between Mediatek and Qualcomm has impacted the inclusion of Snapdragon 870 in flagship phones. It seems like the processor will soon become a commonly used one in mid-rangers. 

The smartphone will draw power from a 4700mAh battery along with 80W fast charging support. It is also expected that the smartphone will operate on the Funtouch OS 12 based on the Android 12 operating system
