        The FunTouchOS apart from its kiddy funky name. it is almost stock android, it's extremely fast, responsive and fluid. One of the best Andriod UI on the market. The only thing that is a bit dissapointing, is the thickness (9.4 mm) but its understandable for a 4500mAh battery, But apart from that this phone is perfect. Never overheats like other so called "topbrand" smartphones.

          Specs are fine. Sadly non GPL compliance + FunTouchOS (let's face it probably the world's worst named UI ever) = no go for me.

          Maybe next try Vivo.

            Look at the latest updates of iOS, full of bugs.

              Wonder if there is natural color mode for the camera.

                  Ok admit it - how many of you downloaded the selfie photo taken in pitch-black darkness without flash and then increased the brightness with a photo editor?


                  *raises hand*
                  Good thing the subject wasn't doing anything funny or embarrasing :P

                    Why they still coping ios for their ui. It's look very silly

                      I was just reading early impressions on Pixel 4 and was terribly disappointed so I'm glad this review popped because this phone is amazing compared to the joke that is Google's new handset.

                      Glad to see Chinese companies still innovating in the Android space. If I was in a market for a phone I'd no doubt get the Nex 3 for that 6.9" behemoth of a display. Yeah there are some software issues but generally with Android you're left with subpar software experience in the first place. If I'm looking for a solid, up to date OS I'm getting an iPhone anyway. But for some actually innovative design I'm glad there are phones like Nex.

                        > curved screen
                        > pop-up camera

                        No buy.

                          A few years back, we were limited to 5.5 inch screen size with those dimensions.
                          Amazing to see 7 inch screen size in that same compact body

                            The only bad thing I can find here is screen pixel density.
                            360 ppi for an AMOLED display, which has the PenTile array means some people will notice the pixels. I had an AMOLED with 380 ppi in the past and sometimes I noticed the sharp edges on fonts. Wasn't annoying all that much, but considering it's a flagship - this should not be a thing here.
                            And Nex 3 still has the headphone jack! That's something I like to see.

The images from this phone are much, MUCH better than many other flagships. Just zoom in on the detail of the portrait shot of the piece of wood. You would not find that much detail in any flagship image, I can promise you that. The contrast and dynamic range from the Nex 3 5G cam is superb.

                                You say great cameras but dynsmic range on main not good and ultra wide recording is budget grade, crappy sound all around. Only good points selfie cam/battery/screen (yet no 90hz) and no OIS. Camera app also confusing. Please don't compare it to mate 30 pro, that phone is camera killer and objetively top3 in phone cameras.
