iQoo Neo 8 with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC was launched in China in May. The new model is yet to debut in other global markets including India, but rumours of the purported iQoo Neo 9 are already surfacing on the Web. In a new update, the schematics of the iQoo Neo 9 have surfaced online, offering a brief look at the possible rear design of the upcoming handset. The image suggests a dual rear camera module on the rear. It is tipped to come with a 6.78-inch display.

Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated) posted schematics of the iQoo Neo 9 on Weibo. It suggests a hole-punch cutout at the top centre of the display and narrow bezels. The handset appears to have a dual rear camera unit. The primary and secondary sensors are seen arranged in separate small circular cutouts on the top left corner alongside a dual-LED flash unit. Volume buttons and power button are seen arranged on the left spine.
