The iQOO Neo 11 series could soon welcome a new member. While iQOO has not officially announced the iQOO Neo 11S, recent leaks suggest the smartphone is already in development and may arrive with several notable upgrades over the standard Neo 11.
According to the latest information shared by a reliable tipster, the upcoming handset could feature a much larger battery, a customised MediaTek processor, and a high-resolution display aimed at power users and mobile gamers.

Custom MediaTek Dimensity 9500 Chip Expected
One of the biggest highlights of the leak is the processor. The iQOO Neo 11S is tipped to use a custom version of MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 chipset.
Instead of using the standard chip, iQOO is reportedly working with a slightly underclocked version that may focus on delivering better thermal management and improved battery efficiency without sacrificing everyday performance.
The phone is also expected to include iQOO’s software optimisations, which could further enhance gaming performance and system responsiveness.
Bigger Battery Could Be the Biggest Upgrade
Battery life appears to be one of the major improvements.
The leak claims that the iQOO Neo 11S may pack a battery with a capacity of more than 9,000mAh, making it significantly larger than the 7,500mAh battery found in the regular iQOO Neo 11.
If this information proves accurate, the Neo 11S could become one of the highest-capacity flagship-style smartphones available, offering extended gaming sessions, longer video playback, and fewer charging breaks.
2K Display May Return
The smartphone is also expected to feature a 2K resolution display, continuing the premium display experience offered by the Neo series.
Interestingly, the panel is said to be manufactured using a new domestic display technology, although further technical details have not yet been revealed.
Users can expect sharp visuals, vibrant colours, and a smooth experience, especially for gaming and multimedia consumption.
Fast Charging Could Remain a Key Feature
Despite the larger battery, the iQOO Neo 11S is rumoured to support 100W wired fast charging.
If true, users may still be able to recharge the large battery in a relatively short amount of time, reducing downtime between gaming or work sessions.
Other Rumoured Features
Several additional features have also surfaced through recent leaks, including:
- Custom MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset
- More than 9,000mAh battery
- 100W wired fast charging
- 2K resolution display
- Ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor
- IP68 dust and water resistance
- iQOO software optimisations
These features suggest the phone will target users looking for flagship-level performance with exceptional battery life.
Storage and Colour Options
The iQOO Neo 11S is expected to launch in multiple RAM and storage variants, including:
- 12GB + 256GB
- 12GB + 512GB
- 16GB + 256GB
- 16GB + 512GB
Leaks also point to three colour options:
- Light White
- Shadow Black
- Wind Chaser
The availability of these variants may vary depending on the market.
Expected Launch Timeline and Price
Earlier reports indicate that the iQOO Neo 11S could debut in China sometime in August.
The smartphone is expected to start at around CNY 3,000, which roughly converts to Rs. 42,000. However, pricing and availability for global markets have not yet been confirmed.

Final Thoughts
Although iQOO has yet to officially unveil the Neo 11S, the leaked specifications paint a promising picture. A custom Dimensity 9500 chipset, an enormous battery, 100W fast charging, and a 2K display could make it one of the most interesting performance-focused smartphones in its segment.
As with all early leaks, these details should be taken with caution until iQOO makes an official announcement. However, if the rumours are accurate, the Neo 11S could become a strong upgrade for users who prioritise battery life without compromising on flagship-level performance.
