  ★★★★☆ I only purchased this mobile for gaming , so I'm only sharing feedback about my one day gaming experience. (Received on 9th March)Firstly, battery charging speed is too fast, almost charging 4 to 5 percent in one minute. Next i installed bgmi and it supporting smooth + extreme ( 60fps) for now. Game running smoothly and screen also very smooth while moving joystick. Played in hotdrop but no lag in moment. Here comes the negatives in mobile.I'm the one who uses hold mode while scoping and peaking, while peaking in tdm, sometimes even after removing finger on peak button character taking time to comeback to cover. It was not all times but sometimes, don't know it's mobile issue or game issue. Secondly for earphones, there is no separate port for earphones except charging port, so it's not possible to use earphones while charging. Also since charging port was in middle, while playing bgmi in 4 finger claw, it's uncomfortable to hold phone because I used to mobiles those have earphone ports at side instead of center. I'm facing heating issue while playing games, i can feel it in my hands.You can go for it , these are minor issues that can be fixed in future updates.Edit after one week of usage:Mobile heating while playing games, even when room temperature is normal. Need to turn on fan everytime while playing. Sometimes character lagging for 1 sec like we face during high ping but ping was normal. I still don't understand this issue was with this mobile or because of ban in bgmi.

  ★★★★★ Let me give you a genuine and original review here that is uncommon and can matter you while making decision.1. Camera- Not bad, and camera is very good but it's the software tuning that changed it from original colours to little more bright. I don't know why people have complaint about the Camera. I have DSLR so yes camera doesn't matter much to me but moving from 15k/- mobile to 30k/- iqoo phone, found camera very impressive.Night Camera is better than Neo 6, tune more bright colours and capture low light coz of GW3 improvements. Bookeh has better effect and blurr background better than NEO 6.2. Display- Good because this time it has 33% more contrast than NEO 6 screen, support HDR and can easily run 10bit 120hz 12K+HDR videos without any Lag. Black are almost black in the display and doesn't reflect backlit or light leak making it greyish in any sense. It has upgraded Vulkan 1.2 and 3x of execution units compared to SD 888. So better than NEO 6 except E-series display. Dolby Vision is missing and I am not missing it as well.3. RAM- 8GB + 8GB dynamic Ram where it will dynamically allocated depending on the space which is quite enough and supports Extended RAM 3.0 which pros over NEO 6. Memory Bandwidth double of SD 888.4. Sound- Sound is very loud and you will feel depth when listen Stereo sound with highly dynamic range and it is 50% more loud from my previous phone. It is that loud and clear that you can listen 320kbps static rate MP3 without feeling any loss. HE-AACv1, HE-AACv2, FLAC is supported, what else you want guys?5. No Lag- MTK had a very poor impression to me but as I am not a heavy gamer, it doesn't matter to me if it opens any app with 0.10ms delay as compared to SD 888. Is it a competition that you make race between SD and MTK? For normal and heavy users, it's sufficient for daily use.6. Battery- Battery drains out very fast. With medium usage, in 1 hour 10% battery is drained out. I checked the cores, out of 8, 2 cores at 1.0Ghz were running in idle with no google account added and any app except the stock one.7. Haptics- haptics are good and touch is very responsive.8. Charging- Low powered current and voltage doesn't support and it do not charge the battery. High voltage and current is required I think min. 66W will work. Tested with 2A 5V charger, didn't work. So might be old battery banks will not work.9. IR Blaster- Awesome to use with AC.10. Design- WORST....this is the one I didn't like and giving a feeling of TRUE CHINESE handset. OnePlus and even my old one of the cellphone from ASUS of Rs.15K/- is having better design and rich feeling holding those handsets.11. OS- Being Android 13, it has many features and many customizations and best thing is you will get updates till ANDROID 15. OS is smooth but yes MTK and SD will definitely be having a difference when the Storage will be full of apps and occupy 100GB. But you will never get a huge difference and this is for sure. Unable to find any bug as of now.CONCLUSION- If you want to upgrade your phone from SD 870 or 888, do not upgrade. If purchasing new because of old phone, don't buy NEO 6, buy NEO 7 because of better CPU, RAM, Display graphics and Network chipset. Moreover it records 4K at 60fps and do not lag like OnePlus 9 and old versions.BTW, I got NEO 7 at the price difference of Rs.1250/- as I was getting with NEO 6 in phone exchange. SO with price difference of just Rs.1250/- I got better deal i.e. NEO 7.

  ★★★★☆ My criteria for purchasing mobile is Camera, Battery,5G support.and i have purchased this mobile on exchange with my OnePlus 5T mobile.Battery backup is good, But charger is too heavy to carry of course charges in lightening speed.But, camera is average ,not upto mark after capturing photo on zooming resolution is not proper compared to my previous OnePlus.LED flash is also of low intensity.Camera lens though small, space allocated for camera is more at back side, so when mobile falls , chances of damage are more.Sound is good with two speakers.Look wise good.As on date no details available for IP protection, I'm not sure how the mobile behaves if water spills on it.As my concern is not for gaming, considering camera & battery backup i feel this mobile is expensive and can go for moto g62 5g range mobiles.Battery draining fast on continuous usage of 5G.
