After purchasing the iQOO Neo 9 Pro, I was thrilled to receive the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip as a complimentary accessory from the iQOO Store. As a frequent gamer, I was excited to see how this cooling clip could enhance my experience, especially given the reputation of iQOO devices for performance. Here’s how this accessory has been a game-changer in keeping my device cool and my gaming experience smooth.

Why Cooling is Essential for High-Performance Gaming

For anyone who enjoys gaming, overheating is a common issue that can seriously impact performance. Heat can cause frame drops, lag, and even shorten the device's battery life. The iQOO Neo 9 Pro packs plenty of power, but the addition of the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip takes it to the next level by keeping the device cooler, which means smoother gameplay and less strain on the hardware.

How the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip Works: Key Features

The iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip is more than just a fan. Designed with a high-speed 5200 RPM fan and a large 2623 mm² thermoelectric cooling (TEC) plate, this clip manages to reduce device temperatures by up to 30°C during intense gaming sessions. Here are some of its key features and my experience with each:

1. Quick and Effective Cooling

One of the coolest (pun intended) things about the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip is its rapid cooling performance. It achieves a 10°C drop in around 5–7 seconds, perfect for gamers who need a reliable accessory to avoid thermal throttling. With the TEC cooling technology, I noticed my device stayed consistently cool even during high-demand games.

2. Parallel Charging Support

Often, gaming while charging can lead to excessive heat, but with the Cooling Clip’s parallel charging feature, I can charge the phone while gaming without worrying about additional heat build-up. This feature has made a noticeable difference in battery stability during extended sessions.

3. Quiet and Lightweight Design

Weighing only 69g, the cooling clip is incredibly light, so I hardly feel any extra weight. It’s also impressively quiet, operating at under 26dB, which means it doesn’t add any noise distractions during gameplay. This thoughtful design allows me to focus on my game without being disturbed by loud fan noise.

4. RGB Lighting

As a gamer, aesthetics matter, and the RGB lighting on the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip adds a visually engaging element.

5. Universal Compatibility

The Cooling Clip includes a sheet, making it compatible with a range of devices—not just iQOO phones. Its trapezoidal design also avoids accidental touches on the side buttons, which is a relief during high-stakes gaming moments.

How It Changed My Gaming Experience

Before using the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip, my device would occasionally heat up to the point where I had to pause my gaming sessions. Now, with the cooling clip, I’m able to maintain stable, high-performance gameplay even during prolonged use. Whether I’m exploring open-world games or battling in high-frame-rate games, the clip’s cooling performance has truly enhanced the phone’s capabilities.

It’s not just about preventing lag; the cooling clip has also given me peace of mind regarding my device’s longevity. By keeping the device at lower temperatures, I feel more confident that it’s avoiding unnecessary wear from excess heat, especially since I’m someone who often uses my phone to the max.

Final Thoughts: Is the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip Worth It?

For anyone who owns an iQOO Neo 9 Pro or other performance-oriented device, the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip is a worthwhile accessory. With its quick cooling action, lightweight and quiet design, and additional features like RGB lighting and universal compatibility, it offers a complete package that elevates the gaming experience. The fact that I received it as a free add-on made it even better, but having used it, I’d say it’s worth the investment for serious gamers.

If you’re someone who values a smooth, uninterrupted gaming experience and wants to protect your device from the effects of high temperatures, the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip is definitely a must-have.

Thanks to the iQOO Ultra Cooling Clip, I’ve been able to enjoy my Neo 9 Pro at its full potential. Gaming has become cooler, quieter, and all-around better.
