iQOO teams up with e-sports pros to test and certify its smartphones for next-level gaming!

iQOO is doubling down on gaming cred by teaming up with India’s top e-sports stars to put its latest phones through their paces. With the gaming scene booming, the brand wants to ensure its devices can handle the heat—and who better to test them than the pros?

Leading the charge for iQOO’s gaming push is the iQOO Neo 10R. Set to launch on March 11, 2025, it features a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset and promises 90FPS experience for up to 5 hours. It's kept cool by a 6043mm vapor chamber and has a 2000Hz instant touch sampling rate with a dedicated e-sports mode that fine-tunes performance for competitive play. Rounding it all out is a 1.5K AMOLED display.

The iQOO Neo 10R will be the first device officially tested and certified by India’s biggest gaming stars—Dynamo Gaming, GamerFleet, Mortal, Payal Gaming, Scout, Shreeman Legend, and UnGraduate Gamer. 

These streamers and e-sports pros will play, push, and stress-test every iQOO phone moving forward. Expect optimisations aimed at smooth gaming and seamless live streaming—because when the stakes are high, lag is not an option.
