chethan br, 01 Sep 2021Is vivo nex getting origin os atleast, if not android 11.More than 2 years later, received a small OTA update of 166.85MB on both my Vivo NEX S. The update says improvement in network performance so did the update. No Android security patch updates and the phone still runs on a very highly optimized Android 10 for the Global version.

Upgrade contains:
Optimized network adaptability and stability

After update:
Android Version: 10
Android security patch level: 01-Mar-2021
Vivo ROM: Funtouch OS_10
Software Version: PD1805F_EX_A_8.70.10

          Gd Basha, 19 Aug 2021Hi what about Android 11 for Vivo Nex still we are getting ... moreI don't think Vivo NEX (Vivo NEX S in China) global variant will receive Android 11. My pair of NEXs are running on below OS version for last 6 months:

          Android Version: 10
          Android security patch level: 01-Mar-2021
          Vivo ROM: Funtouch OS_10
          Software Version: PD1805F_EX_A_8.70.9
          Compile time: 15-Mar-2021

          Hence I believe 2 Android version upgrades and 3 years of security updates is all we will get for the Google certified, GMS pre-installed version.

Will erase all past OS images from your phone and then it will work perfectly. I always do so after each Android version upgrade. Plenty of videos available on YouTube.

In India Vivo have already provided the phone 2 major Android software updates from Android 8 to 10 and still providing bi-monthly security patch updates. Come May, 2021 the phone will be 3 years old and this is the time manufacturers stops providing software updates.

                      I doubt, but Android 11 on international Google certified variant of Vivo NEX S will be a big surprise. May your words comes true.

                        Amazing huge AMOLED display, amazing gaming capability with excellent thermal management. A true gaming phone with amazing built quality. Also amazing sound quality through headphone jack. It is one of the few phones capable of native DSD (dsf, dff audio files) playback through default music player. A rare gem.

                        Back camera is really good. For $300 price I paid, it is a no brainier.

                            Years gone by, and I'm still loving my vivo next S. Many phones comes but Next S is super good, still. It's display is cool. But I hope android 11 will still come to this phone. I hope so. I hope Vivo read this post of mine and they will come to a point of considering updating this to Android 11.
