Sexy vivo Apex 2019 unveiled with no buttons, all screen fingerprint sensor

24 January 2019
The Apex 2019 is a 5G, Snapdragon 855-powered device with next-gen in-display fingerprint tech.

This looks so pretty! I'd love to use a phone like that. The only problem I see is a lack of a way to connect wired headphones (no matter if it's a jack or USB-C), unless that magnetic port could make it possible, but then the magnet should be strong enough to prevent accidental disconnection.

    DO YOU SEE ANY PUNCH HOLE CAMERA ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER?

            Chinese company seriously moving away from copying iPhones now. They innovate and leave western behind!

                I already converted my phones usb port to a MagPort. It's old tech but with a new use.

                  Jonairma, 24 Jan 2019Still has chin 😐YEP. that's not "all screen" if it still has chin. 🙄

                    In cell-phone era we had many types of ports and connectors, every manufacturer had their own. We dropped that to bring some standards to the world, so the accessories would be somewhat universal. Now we again go towards manufacturer-specific connectors.
                    Thank you, but that's not innovation. That's ten steps backwards.

                        Looks like Apple got 1Up'd by BBK. Tim Cook and Jony Ive should be resigned and let the GSMArena Community and some other fans who know how to make Apple products better be in charge.

                        Dreams aside, this phone is sleek, full of wireless courage and also properly innovative. If they use Sony's latest flagship sensors, selfie cam under the screen, new battery tech like Solid State Batteries and of course, no super small holes, it would've not only been the best flagship phone but also certified for iPX8 Waterproof as nothing can get inside it.

                          NYC concept hope they bring all the features shown into reality.

                            Very innovative and great looking. How they standardise their software upgrade programs, hope their cameras rock in the top three or four with marginal difference in DxO ranking (though many would argue against DxO).

                              [deleted post]Racism is nothing to do with this, its OK, but when people show off their iJunk or they sammyCrappy or something, people forget they are made in China too, all handwork, all materials almost 98% of the phone is china all over but brainless people who dont know nothing need to think "oh, my iJunk is made in USA" or "Samsung, yeah, Korean phone" - just have the brand name made in, not all the rest.

                              so, it depends what people call racism...for me its all the same, i can guarantee you: chinese phone like Xiaomi, Oppo, vivo whatever, the quality in the end is the same as a Sammycrappy or crApple...sometimes even better than those.

                                It seemed to me like the fifth icon at the bottom right is actually hiding a punch hole camera

                                  vivo and Oppo are the true innovators nowadays.. Good for them!

                                    [deleted post]If you are not aware, almost all brands are manufactured in China... So please stop the racial BS...

                                      This opens for interesting possibility of multi-finger scan, and even having the position matter for further increased security...

                                        Dabrowski, 24 Jan 2019I really like what Vivo, Meizo, One Plus, Xiaomi,Oppo doing... moreOmhergheerd
