Despite the iQOO Neo 11 being launched in China late last year, iQOO is still refreshing the older iQOO Neo 10 model with new colour options in India this month. Notably, the iQOO Neo 10 was launched in India last year with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, a 7,000mAh battery with 120W ultrafast charging, and much more. Here are the new details of the iQOO Neo 10.
Nipun Marya, CEO of iQOO India, has teased the iQOO Neo 10 in two colours -- White and Black. While the white colour option has been officially named "Alpine White", the black colour option is expected to be called "Asphalt Black". However, the company is yet to reveal the name of the black colour variant.
It is worth noting that the iQOO Neo 10 is already available in India in two colour options, including Inferno Red and Titanium Chrome. But the new colour options will be revealed in India on April 30.
No other details have been revealed so far regarding these colour variants, but they will be available exclusively on Amazon.
Notably, the iQOO Neo was launched in China in four colourways, such as Glowing White, Pixel Orange, Shadow Black, and Facing the Wind (a shade of blue), translated from Chinese.
It is not known whether the new colour options will have a different or increased price, but the iQOO Neo 10 currently starts at Rs 34,999 for the 8GB + 128GB model.
Meanwhile, the 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 16GB + 512GB storage configurations are priced at Rs 36,999, Rs 38,999, and Rs 43,999, respectively.
The iQOO Neo 10 can currently be purchased via the company's official website, Amazon, and Flipkart.

The iQOO Neo 10 features a 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with up to 5,500 nits peak brightness, whereas the iQOO Neo 11 features a slightly bigger 6.82-inch 2K LTPO AMOLED display with up to 4,500 nits peak brightness. Both phones offer a 144Hz refresh rate.
In terms of chipset, the iQOO Neo 10 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, while the iQOO Neo 11 is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which is said to be much faster, more power-efficient, and capable of delivering superior gaming and multitasking performance.
The iQOO Neo 10 and Neo 11 pack a 50MP OIS main camera and an 8MP ultrawide sensor. However, the predecessor has a 32MP selfie sensor, whereas the successor offers a downgraded 16MP front camera.
The iQOO Neo 10 packs a 7,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support. Meanwhile, the iQOO Neo 11 offers a slightly bigger 7,500mAh battery but comparatively slower 100W charging, though it is still considered to be one of the fastest-charging phones in the segment.

The iQOO Neo 10 offers a bold and premium design with a large square-shaped camera module that houses the camera setup. It has flat edges and a clean back finish.
On the other hand, the iQOO Neo 11 adopts a more refined design with a smaller, vertically aligned rectangular camera module. The phone has a slimmer and more elegant appearance with rounded corners.
Both the iQOO Neo 10 and Neo 11 boast flat displays with thin bezels and a centred punch-hole camera setup. Meanwhile, the power and volume keys are placed on the right edge of the devices.
Overall, the iQOO Neo 10 looks bold and powerful, while the iQOO Neo 11 appears more premium, sleek, and fashionable.
The launch of new colour variants of the iQOO Neo 10 around the expected timeline of the iQOO Neo 11 makes it seem that the Gadget360 report might be true, which claimed that iQOO has decided to skip the Neo series in India in 2026.
The report mentioned that iQOO is shifting focus to a more refined flagship strategy, putting more energy into strengthening its premium lineup, such as the iQOO 15R, rather than pushing the upper mid-range Neo series.
As a result, the iQOO Neo 10, launched in 2025, is likely to be the last Neo series phone in India for the foreseeable future. However, the company has yet to come up with official details regarding this.
