Exclusive: iQOO Neo Series to Skip 2026 Launch as Brand Refines Flagship Strategy
Gadgets 360 has learned from sources that iQOO plans to change its usual release schedule for one of its most popular smartphone lineups in India, the Neo series. It typically represents the upper mid-range segment of Vivo’s sub-brand lineup. The iQOO Neo series handsets often offer a combination of near-flagship-level chipsets, high refresh rate displays, and fast charging capabilities, at a competitive price point. While the brand has indeed been busy with recent launches like the iQOO 15R, sources say that iQOO is shifting its focus away from the Neo series in 2026.
