vivo NEX 3 hands-on review

16 Sept 2019

IMO, Vivo NEX Dual Display was more unique & attractive than this. This one only offers slightly better StB ratio than other flagships of today at the expense of water-resistance. Not really that impressive IMO.

    sohail shafayat, 16 Sep 2019This is a huge device, a GIANT. screen is 9:18.8. 9:18 woul... moreThe phone itself is just 5mm taller than Note 10+, while having almost 5% bigger screen.
    Nex 3 has 4500 mAh battery, which is also bigger than in Note 10+.
    And it has just FHD+ screen, meaning less stress on GPU.
    Additional cameras won't be the best, that's for sure, but they aren't the main selling point.

    And the marketing is all lies, like every damn time. 99.6% screen to body ratio? With those bezels? More like 95%. Still impressive, but why lie about it, while they're already ahead of competition.
    People can do math, when they're given the data. Don't you understand that, Vivo?

      Love the Community, 16 Sep 2019vivo's NEX series is always experimental. The first NEX is ... moreAPEX was experimental. NEX is bringing the best of APEX to the market for everyone.

        Just can"t wait to see a full review of this phone,with Apple & Samsung releasing phones too expensive,the others seem to be catching up with these two now,looks like a Galaxy phone,so i bet Samsung as created these screens for Vivo

          Vivo Thailand have said that both front and back glass panels are GG6 and selfie flash also accompanying front facing camera.

              The edges are too warped. They should feature quick access icons instead of the reading area.

                This is a huge device, a GIANT. screen is 9:18.8. 9:18 would have been great. Battery will suffer to light up this screen. Telephoto lens id too slow. Only f/2.5.

                  vivo's NEX series is always experimental. The first NEX is the first to introduce a small pop-up camera for a selfie to give off an All-screen look. The second NEX has a second screen on the back. Now the third next is about the Waterfall Display, haptic side buttons and some few tidbits that aren't worth mentioning.
