iQOO has finally launched iQOO Neo 6 after several leaks and rumours in the past few weeks. It comes as a successor to the iQOO Neo 5 that launched sometime last year. However, this smartphone has only launched in China so far but it can launch in India sometime later. Alongside the new phone, Vivo sub-brand iQOO introduced its 44W Flash Charge Power Bank. It claims to recharge the Neo 6 from zero to 50 per cent in 18 minutes. It also launched the iQoo Extreme Wind Cooling Back Clip Pro to help maintain the phone’s temperature. The latter will help while playing high-end games alongside charging. The back clip comes with dual USB Type-C ports.
