Poco F7 vs iQOO Neo 10: Which phone is a better buy under ₹35,000?
The mid-range smartphone segment is currently at a boiling point with a launch of number of good offerings, two of which that most catch the eye being the Poco F7 and the iQOO Neo 10 - both of which compete for more or less the same spot. But if you are in the market for a new phone, which one of them should you consider? Let's take a deep dive in this article. Poco F7 features a 6.83 inch 1.5K OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and 2560Hz of instant touch sampling rate. The phone packs a peak brightness of 3200 nits and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i on top. One good thing with the Poco F7 is that it comes with IP68 and IP69 rating which translates to the phone potentially being able to handle being submerged in 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes and taking in hot/cold jet sprays from any direction. Meanwhile, the iQOO Neo 10 packs a slightly smaller 6.78 inch 1.5K AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate and 5,500nits of peak brightness. The Neo 10 comes with IP65 rating for water and dust resistance, meaning it isn't completely waterproof and can only potentially handle splashes and light rainfalls. The iQOO Neo 10 and Poco F7 are equally matched in the power department with both the devices being powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor with Adreno 825 GPU. They also have the same LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.1 storage options. One thing to be noted here is that iQOO comes with a lower RAM option on the base variant (8GB) compared to the Poco F7 (12GB). The Neo 10 also only supports UFS 4.1 on the 256GB and 512GB variant while the F7 gets UFS 4.1 on both the variants. A big caveat with the camera comparison is that I haven't physically tried on the Poco F7 yet which means it won't be possible for me to give the readers an empirical analysis on the mid-range phone's camera performance. That being said, even the camera specifications could give us much to differentiate the two phones by. Poco F7 comes with a 50MP Sony IMX882 primary shooter with OIS and EIS and an 8MP ultra-wide angle lens. On the front, it gets a 20MP shooter. The rear camera can shoot at a maximum of 4K 60fps while the selfie shooter can record at a maximum of 1080p at 60fps. The iQOO Neo 10 also comes with the same Sony IMX882 primary shooter with OIS and an 8MP ultra-wide angle lens. However, there is a higher resolution 32MP shooter on the front with support for 4k 60fps video recording. In case you want a clean software experience, both these phones aren't necessarily made for you. If you buy any of these devices, brace yourselves for a plethora of bloatwares and ads throughout the UI. Poco runs on HyperOS 2.0 based on Android 15 with the promise of 4 years of OS updates and 6 years of security patches. Meanwhile, iQOO Neo 10 runs on Funtouch OS 15 with the promise of 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security patches. Poco F7 comes with a 7,550 mAh battery with support for 90W of wired fast charging. Meanwhile, iQOO Neo 10 comes with a 7,000mAh battery with the same 90W of wired fast charging. Both phones don't come with support for wireless charging but the massive battery size mean that unless there is a major software optimization issue one should easily get over one day of usage on either phone. iQOO Neo 10 comes at a price of ₹ 31,999 for the 8GB RAM/128GB storage variant and goes up to ₹ 40,999 for the top end 16GB RAM/512GB storage model. Poco F7, on the other hand, comes in only two variants with a price of ₹ 31,999 for the 12GB RAM/256GB model and ₹ 33,999 for the 12GB RAM/512GB variant. Poco F7 presents itself as a solid option in the sub- ₹ 35,000 price bracket and brings much of the same features as the iQOO Neo 10 with a lower price tag including the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, the 50MP Sony IMX882 primary shooter, a UFS 4.1 storage and LPDDR5x RAM. It also comes with a slightly bigger 7,550mAh battery with the same 90W of fast charging.

Poco F7 to compete with iQOO Neo 10 in mid-range segment: Know which phone offers top value
The Poco F7 is launching on June 24 in India at under Rs.35000. Within the revealed price bracket, the smartphone competes with several other mid-rangers such as Vivo T4, iQOO Neo 10, and more. However, the iQOO Neo 10 and Poco F7 share the same Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, raising questions about which model is value for money. Therefore, to get a greater understanding, we have curated a comparison between Poco F7's expected specifications and iQOO Neo 10 features. This way, buyers can make an informed decision and buy the product which matches their day-to-day requirements. The Poco F7 features a dual-tone design with RGB lighting around the pill-shaped camera module, hinting towards its performance and gaming capabilities. The upper half of the smartphone has a transparent-like design, similar to what the Infinix GT series and Nothing models offer. Lastly, it is expected to come with an IP68 rating for dust and water protection. On the other hand, the iQOO Neo 10 features a squiricle camera module, with a race track-inspired rear panel, giving it a unique look. However, it comes with an IP65 rating for water protection, which is not as durable as the Poco F7. The Poco F7 is expected to come with a 6.83-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution and up to 3200 nits peak brightness. Whereas, the iQOO Neo 10 features a 6.78-inch OLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and up to 5000 nits of peak brightness. Therefore, we can say that specs-wise, the iQOO Neo 10 is snappier and brighter. Both devices are powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor. The Poco F7 is expected to offer up to 12GB LPDDR5x RAM, up to 24GB of Turbo RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. Whereas, the iQOO Neo 10 offers up to 16GB LPDDR5x RAM and up to 512GB. Therefore, both smartphones may offer powerful performance. However, it should be noted that the Poco F7 is more of a performance-centric device. For lasting performance, the Poco F7 is confirmed to be backed by a 7550mAh battery that may support 90W fast charging. Whereas, the iQOO Neo 10 features a 7,000mAh battery that supports a 120W fast charger. The Poco F7 features a dual camera setup that may include a 50MP main camera with a Sony LYT-600 sensor and an 8MP ultrawide camera. We can also see the 50MP mention in the smartphone design, confirming the rumours. On the other hand, the iQOO Neo 10 also comes with a dual camera setup that includes a 50MP Sony IMX882 main camera and an 8MP ultra-wide lens. For selfies, the Poco F7 may feature a 20MP selfie camera, whereas the Neo 10 supports a 32MP selfie camera. While both may offer similar performance, the iQOO Neo 10 has a better display and storage. However, the Poco F7 could offer better durability and expanded battery life.
