Model number confirmed. Chipset confirmed. Whether it’s a Vivo or an iQOO depends on a clue hiding in the charging speed.
Summary
- A device bearing model number V2545A has appeared on Geekbench today, running the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset alongside 12GB RAM and Android 16 — with the CPU configuration, GPU metadata, and MT6693 model number all pointing conclusively to the Dimensity 9500.
- The same V2545A appeared on China’s 3C certification platform in April 2026 with a 100W charger — a significant detail, since Vivo’s own phones typically charge at 80–90W while iQOO devices regularly use 100W or higher as a brand differentiator.
- The Dimensity 9500 is already confirmed for the Vivo X Fold 6 — but that device uses a higher-binned Super Edition variant. The standard Dimensity 9500 in the V2545A suggests a different product entirely.
- The iQOO Neo 11S is an actively rumored upcoming device that would logically use the Dimensity 9500 as an upgrade over the previous Neo’s Snapdragon 8 Elite — making it one of the more probable candidates for this model number.
- The V2545A’s identity will become clearer once further leaks, design renders, or additional certification details surface — for now, the 100W charging clue points more toward iQOO than Vivo proper.
The 100W charger on the 3C certification is the most useful clue in this entire leak. Vivo’s mainline phones sit at 80–90W. iQOO devices consistently use 100W or above. The V2545A’s charging spec quietly but fairly clearly tells you which brand this phone is heading toward.
Why the Charging Speed Is the Tell
Geekbench doesn’t reveal charging speed. 3C certification does. The April filing for V2545A confirmed a 100W charger — and in Vivo’s product ecosystem, that figure is a brand fingerprint. The Vivo X Fold 6, Vivo X500 series, and Vivo S60 all use 80–90W. The iQOO 15T uses 100W. The iQOO Neo 11 Pro used 120W. The V2545A’s 100W charging lands squarely in iQOO territory.
That doesn’t close the case entirely. Vivo has occasionally used 100W on specific models. But the pattern is consistent enough that the iQOO Neo 11S is the most plausible candidate — a mid-cycle refresh of the Neo series running Dimensity 9500 rather than Snapdragon.
The Dimensity 9500 Distinction
The Vivo X Fold 6 uses the Dimensity 9500 Super Edition — MediaTek’s higher-binned variant with pushed clock speeds. The standard Dimensity 9500 in the V2545A Geekbench listing is a different configuration. This doesn’t necessarily mean a significant performance difference in real-world use, but it does confirm the V2545A is not a variant of the X Fold 6’s platform — it’s a separate device with the standard chip.
At 12GB RAM in the Geekbench listing, the V2545A sits in an accessible memory tier — consistent with a Neo-series positioning that targets buyers who want flagship chip performance without the Pro Max price ceiling.
