The Sparx Neo X is the camera-first phone in Sparx’s budget trio, with a 50MP quad rear camera, a 6.56-inch 90Hz display and Gorilla Glass protection, priced from Rs. 20,499 in Pakistan. It pairs the MediaTek Helio G37 with 4GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of storage on Android 12, with a 5000mAh battery and 18W charging. For buyers who want the most camera for the least money, it is the pick of the three Neo phones.
Design and Display
- 6.56-inch IPS LCD, 720 x 1600 (~267 ppi), 90Hz refresh.
- Corning Gorilla Glass display protection (mymobile + whatmobile).
- 164.6 x 75.8 x 9.2 mm, 189 g — a large, chunky handset.
- Colours: Maroon and Blue (the featured image shows the blue unit).
- Rear-mounted fingerprint sensor (mobileinto says side-mounted — the dissent is named here); 3.5mm headphone jack; FM radio; no IP rating is published.
Performance
- MediaTek Helio G37 (12 nm) — octa-core: 4x Cortex-A53 @ 2.3 GHz + 4x Cortex-A53 @ 1.8 GHz.
- PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
- 4GB RAM, 64GB or 128GB internal storage; microSD expansion up to 128GB.
- No 5G — 4G LTE only. Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS with A-GPS.
- No virtual-RAM expansion is published for this phone.
Camera
- Main: 50 MP (wide) — the primary shooter, the headline camera of this trio.
- Second lens: 2 MP — an auxiliary lens.
- Third lens: 2 MP — a second auxiliary lens.
- AI lens: an AI-assisted lens for scene enhancement.
- Selfie: 8 MP with LED flash.
- Video: 1080p@30fps (both cameras).
- LED flash, HDR, panorama, Ge-tagging and phase detection on the rear camera.
- Honest note: the 2MP lenses and the AI lens are supporting players — judge the camera on the 50MP main alone, which is a genuine step up from the 13MP mains on the Neo 8 and Neo 8 Pro.
Battery and Charging
- 5000mAh Li-Po, non-removable.
- 18W wired charging (mobileinto — the only source that publishes a charging figure; mymobile and whatmobile carry none).
- A full day of normal use is realistic at this battery size.
Software
- Android 12 — older than the Android 13 on the Neo 8 and Neo 8 Pro, and the write-up says so plainly.
- No heavy skin on top; Sparx ships a near-stock experience on this phone.
- No update policy published — do not expect long-term Android version upgrades.
Price in Pakistan
Rs. 20,499 for the 4GB + 64GB variant and Rs. 23,999 for the 4GB + 128GB variant — both Official, PTA Approved.
4GB RAM + 64GB — Rs. 20,499 (Official, PTA Approved)
4GB RAM + 128GB — Rs. 23,999 (Official, PTA Approved)
| Model | Sparx Neo X (4GB + 64GB) |
| Price | Rs. 20,499 |
| Display | 6.56″ IPS LCD 90Hz, 720 x 1600 |
| RAM | 4GB |
| ROM | 64GB |
| Released | July 2023 |
The 64GB price is whatmobile’s official-dealer price, corroborated by qeemat’s lowest Rs. 20,549 (Nov 10, 2026); the 128GB price is mobileinto’s Official table (updated Nov 11, 2026). The Jan 2024 launch price was Rs. 31,999 (mymobile) — that figure is stale and is not the current price. A 40% discount figure of Rs. 19,299 on mymobile is a discount, not a price, and was not used. Retail figures (mobilegeeks 26,500, out of stock) and stale bank listings (MCB 24,499/25,499) were not used.
Launched in Pakistan in July 2023; available now.
Buying in Pakistan
- Check the IMEI and the exact model before paying — confirm it is the Neo X (Helio G37, 50MP quad, 4+64 or 4+128), not the Neo 8, the Neo 8 Pro or the Sparx Note X.
- Confirm warranty — Sparx is a local brand; ask the seller whether the warranty is official Sparx warranty (whatmobilez notes a 1-year Deploy warranty).
- Confirm PTA status via DIRBS — the phone is listed as PTA Approved; verify the IMEI on dirbs.pta.gov.pk before purchase.
- Register within the 60-day DIRBS window if the phone is non-PTA.
Final Verdict: The best camera in Sparx’s budget trio
The Neo X earns its place on the 50MP quad camera, the Gorilla Glass and the 90Hz display — the strongest spec sheet of the three Neo phones at Rs. 20,499 for the 64GB variant.
The trade-offs are Android 12, the entry-level Helio G37 and microUSB. If the camera matters most and the older software is acceptable, it is the best-value Sparx phone in this batch.
