A day after teasing new colour options for the iQOO Neo 10 in the country, The company has revealed the Alpine White variant that is launching on April 30th, with the black option also expected to arrive alongside it. The white and black options join the Inferno Red and Titanium Chrome finishes that have been available for the iQOO Neo 10 since launch. There are no hardware changes, and the phone continues being sold for Rs 34,999 for the base 8GB + 128GB model, up to Rs 43,999 for the 16GB + 512GB variant.
iQOO Neo 10 colour options and specifications
The original colour options were bold and gamer-forward. Inferno Red and Titanium Chrome suited the Neo’s identity but were not for everyone. If you wanted the phone but found the finishes a bit loud, there was nothing else to pick. Alpine White and black fix that.
Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset
iQOO’s Q1 gaming chip for frame stability
A 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate and 5,500 nits peak brightness
A 7,000mAh battery with 120W charging
A 50MP Sony primary camera with OIS
At its current price, it remains a capable phone in its segment which has seen solid refreshes in the form of the OnePlus Nord 6, Nothing Phone (4a) series and the Motorola Edge 70 Pro.
Notably, the successor, the iQOO Neo 11 launched in China back in October 2025. It came with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a 7,500mAh battery, and a 2K OLED display, which are clear upgrades across the board. iQOO’s usual pattern has been to bring China launches to India within the first half of the following year. That window is almost gone and there has been no announcement yet. So it’s possible we may not be seeing the iQOO Neo 11 in the country at all. A report citing sources said iQOO may skip the Neo series in the country entirely for 2026. Memory chip costs were reportedly part of the reason, alongside iQOO’s push to tighten its India portfolio and avoid too much overlap between products, especially since it launched a sub-premium-tier in the form of the iQOO 15R. That said, that is priced just under Rs 45,000.
In that scenario, the colour refresh reads differently. It’s not just about giving shoppers more options, it’s about keeping the Neo 10 alive and relevant on shelves for longer than originally planned. A new black and white variant extends the conversation around a phone that might otherwise start to fade quietly into the background.
If you have been sitting on the fence about the Neo 10 and the existing colours were the sticking point, this settles it. The phone is genuinely good at its price and the new finishes make it easier to recommend to a wider set of shoppers. If you were specifically waiting for a Neo 11 in the country, the outlook is not great.
