iQOO Neo 9 series to arrive with smartwatch and headphones

With the iQOO 12 series still making waves, the tech community is abuzz with anticipation for the upcoming release of the iQOO Neo 9 series, slated for launch in December. Expanding beyond smartphones, iQOO is also set to introduce a smartwatch and a pair of wireless earbuds, enriching its product lineup.

The iQOO Watch, distinguished by its circular case, features a rotating crown on the top and a button on the right side. This black watch, showcasing an iQOO-specific watch face, is complemented by a silicone band, blending functionality with style. There's speculation that the iQOO Watch could be a rebranded version of the recently launched Vivo Watch 3. This wouldn't be the first collaboration between the brands, as a Vivo Watch 2 iQOO special edition has previously been released, hinting at a continued partnership strategy.

In addition to the watch, the iQOO TWS 1e earbuds are also making headlines. Rumored to be a rebranded version of the Vivo TWS 3e, these earbuds are expected to come in a unique dual-tone Black color inspired by iQOO, along with a classic white variant. The TWS 1e is anticipated to feature an 11mm dynamic driver and active noise cancellation (ANC) for an enhanced audio experience. It will also include DeepX 3.0 and 3D Panoramic Audio effects, promising an immersive sound journey. With an expected battery life of around 9 hours with ANC on, these earbuds are set to be a strong contender in the market.

While the official launch date for the iQOO Neo 9 series and its accompanying devices has not been confirmed by the brand, reports suggest a December 27 release. An official statement from iQOO is eagerly awaited.
