Do you like this screen design?
NEX is the highest-end product in vivo’s product matrix. It has been playing screens since its inception, and this time is no exception.
The NEX generation uses a lift camera to hide the proactive camera from the full screen and launch the so-called “true full screen.” NEX second generation, the front and rear dual screen design expands the boundaries of the screen. This time NEX brought a waterfall screen. The upper part of the side of the phone is wrapped by the screen, and the bending angle of the left and right sides is close to 90 degrees. The enlarged effect of the side is like a waterfall flying down, hence the name.
The waterfall screen brings a larger screen ratio, and the 6.89-inch full screen ratio is as high as 99.6%. According to NXP product manager Hong Wei, is not an actual material cost, and the total R&D investment of this unbounded waterfall screen has exceeded 200 million.
One result of the waterfall screen is that the physical buttons on the side of need to be canceled, and the NEX 3 is replaced by a hidden pressure button. In a common guess about “future mobile phones”, mobile phone side construction will be canceled. This design guarantees the integrity and aesthetics of the phone case, but it will bring some challenges to the habits of consumers.
NEX 3 is available in 4G and 5G versions. NEX 3 5G is the second 5G phone from vivo. The first one is the iQOO Pro 5G, 3798 yuan starting price makes it the cheapest 5G mobile phone in China, the others are around 5000 or higher, greatly reducing the threshold for users to adopt. The price of this one is 5698 yuan (8G+256G), and the high version (12G+256G) is 6198 yuan, which is the general level of the current 5G mobile phone. The 4G version (8G+128G) is priced at 4,998 yuan.

The iQOO series is known for its games, and the NEX series is more balanced. But the two are similar in 5G design:
6 antennas are distributed on the side and bottom of . It is equipped with a 4500mAh large-capacity battery, 44W ultra-fast flash charging and C-DRX power-saving technology to alleviate the problem of large power consumption of 5G mobile phones. The liquid-cooled soaking plate can reduce the temperature of the NEX 3 main chip by more than 10 degrees under the same high power consumption, and solve the heat dissipation problem brought by the 5G high power consumption.
As the top-end flagship of vivo, NEX 3 is equipped with 855 Plus chip, all standard UFS 3.0, under the technical support of Turbo Write and HPB, the sequential read speed of flash chip Will reach 1400MB / s, sequential write speed increased by 110%. Vivo’s self-developed Multi-Turbo 2.0 technology, coupled with the ART++ compiler acceleration engine, enables NEX 3’s system core performance, computational efficiency and application fluency to be improved by at least 20%.
In addition, the NEX 3 has been greatly upgraded in image capture, with 16 megapixels on the front, post three shots, and the main camera uses 64 million pixels. Size sensor (1/1.7), which is the highest-capacity camera that can be mass-produced at present. The other two cameras are 13 million pixels, one is a 120° super wide-angle camera, which supports 2.5cm super macro. AnotherIt is a telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom and 20x digital zoom.
vivo is famous for taking pictures. This time, the NEX 3 enhances the dynamic range of the portrait backlighting scene. The dynamic range of the face to the brightest part of the screen reaches 7.65 EV, and the overall dynamic range reaches 12.3 EV. Support AI beauty, Portrait segmentation technology can achieve hairline-level portrait background separation. In addition, Super Night Scene 2.0 technology allows to quickly take 12-16 photos in a dark environment and perform multi-frame synthesis and drop Noise, and the number of shots can be selected according to the environment intelligence, resulting in a more detailed and clear picture of .
It is worth mentioning that vivo also brought its first TWS headset, the world’s first Qualcomm QCC5126 chip. The QCC5126 has a dual-core 32-bit processor that reduces noise in the environment and enhances user enjoyment.
