Our StoriesKettle review team considers the iQOO Neo 9 Pro 64GB one of the more interesting releases in the upper-mid category this year. It arrives in Pakistan at PKR 108,142 — a price point we consider competitive given what the hardware offers.
Display
StoriesKettle's display testing for the iQOO Neo 9 Pro 64GB covered its 6.78" screen across multiple environments — bright outdoor plazas, dimly lit offices, and direct sunlight. The result was consistent: this screen performs above what we typically expect at this price. Color accuracy is particularly strong, which matters for photographers checking shots on-screen. The size is well-balanced for one-handed use while still being large enough for comfortable media consumption.
Camera Performance
Camera performance was a central focus of StoriesKettle's iQOO Neo 9 Pro 64GB review. The 50MP main sensor surprised us with its daylight performance — shots taken at Lahore's Badshahi Mosque and Karachi's Sea View came out detailed and well-exposed without heavy editing. Portrait mode handles Pakistani skin tones accurately without the over-smoothing that ruins natural skin detail. Wedding and event photography, which is huge in Pakistan, is handled confidently by this camera system.
Performance & Storage
Our StoriesKettle team assessed the iQOO Neo 9 Pro 64GB's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 performance over two weeks of daily Pakistani usage. The verdict: this phone handles everything the average Pakistani user throws at it without complaint. Office applications, video calls on Zoom and Teams, and heavy social media browsing all feel fast and responsive with 8GB RAM managing the load. The 64GB storage accommodates even the largest Urdu keyboard apps, games, and photo libraries without stress.
Battery Life
Our StoriesKettle reviewers found the iQOO Neo 9 Pro 64GB's 5160mAh battery to be reliably consistent across the full two-week testing period. Average Pakistani users — those who spend 4-5 hours on their phones daily for messaging, social media, and entertainment — will comfortably get through a full day with charge to spare. The fast charging implementation is practical and well-executed. StoriesKettle recommends this phone's battery performance as one of its top selling points for Pakistani buyers.
