Poco F7 vs. iQOO Neo 10: A Deep Dive into HDR Display Performance
On-Paper Specifications: A Tale of Two Panels
* Poco F7:
* Resolution: 1.5K OLED
* Color Depth: 12-bit panel (10-bit + 2-bit FRC)
* HDR Support: Dolby Vision and HDR10+
* Peak Brightness: Claimed 3200 nits (believed to be at 25% APL, or Average Picture Level)
* iQOO Neo 10:
* Resolution: 1.5K OLED
* Color Depth: Native 10-bit panel
* HDR Support: HDR10+
* Peak Brightness: Claimed 5500 nits (noted as "local peak brightness," a less specific metric)
While the Poco F7 boasts Dolby Vision support and a 12-bit panel, the analysis posited that the most significant real-world difference would likely stem from the raw peak brightness capabilities of the displays, as 12-bit content is not yet available for consumers.
Platform-by-Platform Performance Analysis
1. YouTube (HDR10)
Testing with HDR gameplay footage from *Cyberpunk 2077*, the difference was immediately clear. The iQOO Neo 10 produced noticeably brighter highlights. On camera, these areas appeared more blown out, confirming that its OLED panel was emitting significantly more light. While both devices offered a satisfying experience, the iQOO Neo 10 delivered a more powerful and impactful HDR presentation.
2. Netflix (Dolby Vision vs. HDR10+)
Using a clip from the *Warcraft* movie, the Poco F7 engaged Dolby Vision while the iQOO Neo 10 used HDR10+. In brighter, high-APL scenes, the iQOO was still brighter, but the gap was less pronounced. However, in lower-lit indoor scenes with small, intense highlights against dark shadows, the iQOO Neo 10 pulled ahead significantly, appearing "quite a bit brighter" and more visually appealing. It demonstrated a greater luminance range without crushing shadow detail.
3. Amazon Prime Video (HDR10+)
This test, using *Sonic the Hedgehog 3*, revealed a critical software flaw on the Poco F7. Its HDR performance on the Amazon Prime Video app was described as "broken." Despite being at maximum brightness, the screen was downright dim, with dull colors and a complete lack of HDR impact. In stark contrast, the iQOO Neo 10 produced an "absolutely dazzling" image, showcasing proper HDR playback.
To confirm this was a software issue, the same movie was played back as a local Dolby Vision file on the Poco F7. Instantly, the display came to life with the bright, punchy HDR performance that was missing in the Prime Video app. This test isolated the problem to the HyperOS software's implementation of HDR within that specific application. When comparing both phones playing the local file, the iQOO Neo 10 still maintained a slight edge in brightness and punch.
4. Local HDR10 Game Streaming (Sunshine/Moonlight)
When streaming *Doom 2016* in HDR10 from a gaming laptop, the performance gap between the two devices was at its narrowest. Both phones looked "phenomenal" for HDR game streaming. Nevertheless, the iQOO Neo 10 was still perceived as being slightly brighter and more impactful to the eye.
Conclusion: A Clear Winner for the HDR Enthusiast
Both the Poco F7 and the iQOO Neo 10 feature excellent displays that will satisfy most users. However, for those who prioritize the immersive punch of high-quality HDR content, the iQOO Neo 10 emerges as the definitive winner.
Its display is consistently able to get brighter, giving highlights more "pop" and making the entire image feel more dynamic and impressive. This advantage, combined with the significant software issue rendering HDR non-functional on the Poco F7's Amazon Prime Video app, solidifies the iQOO Neo 10's victory. While the Prime Video issue on HyperOS can likely be fixed with a software update, as it stands, the iQOO Neo 10 offers a more capable and reliable HDR experience right out of the box.
