At the end of last year, vivo opened the era of waterfall screens with NEX 3, reducing the middle frame on both sides of the phone to the limit. At the same time, for the first time, the physical buttons have been completely replaced with pressure-sensitive buttons, which has promoted the evolution of mobile phone form again. At the same time, NEX 3 is also the first flagship mobile phone in the high-end vivo series to support 5G.
After half a year, Qualcomm’s next-generation X55 baseband has been launched, and the new SoC can bring a better 5G experience. The NEX series, as the flagship of Vivo’s high-end flagship, certainly cannot be left behind, so Vivo upgraded the NEX 3, which is the protagonist of today’s conference-NEX 3S.
On March 10, 2020, vivo held an online launch event for NEX 3S. At the beginning of the conference, the product manager of the vivo NEX series announced that vivo has launched contactlessPurchase services, and extend the warranty on mobile phones that have expired during the epidemic.
Then vivo NEX 3S officially debuted. As an upgrade of NEX 3, of course, vivo NEX 3S is equipped with this year’s flagship Qualcomm new Snapdragon. The Dragon 865 + X55 chip supports NSA / SA dual-mode 5G. In addition, the NEX 3S also comes standard with UFS 3.1 memory chips and the latest LPDDR5 memory, and is equipped with Multi-Turbo 3.0 and VPG system process monitoring technology to ensure that the flagship performance is perfect.
Like the NEX 3, the NEX 3S also uses a 4500 mAh battery and continues to use Super FlashCharge 44W. The Vivo NEX 3S is equipped with a zero-induction soaking plate to dissipate heat. Compared with common liquid-cooled heat pipes, the heat dissipation area is larger, the thermal resistance is lower, and the heat dissipation effect is more significant. The average body temperature can be reduced by 3 to 4 degrees Celsius.
In addition to the further evolution of 5G and SoC performance, NEX 3S also supports WiFi 6 and supports WiFiDual-band connection, can connect two 2.4G / 5G two frequency bands at the same time. The NEX 3S also uses BT High-power technology. By increasing the Bluetooth power, the Bluetooth wall penetration effect is further improved.
In addition to connecting to the network, sharing with other phones is also very important. NEX 3S conducts Android Beam NFC mutual transmission With the improvement, through Wi-Fi P2P direct connection technology and virtual technology, quick screen sharing of mobile phone applications is realized. With a single touch, the content in the mobile phone will be transferred to another mobile phone in the form of a small window.
In terms of screen, NEX 3S inherits the screen configuration of NEX 3, equipped with a 6.89-inch unbounded waterfall screen, bent on the left and right sides It is close to 90 °, and the screen ratio reaches 99.6%. The curved edge can effectively prevent false touch.
In terms of screen quality, the NEX 3S screen supports 100% P3 color gamut coverage, and the local maximum brightness is 800nit. The screen material continues to be used A more eye-friendly E3 material and supports HDR10 and HDR10 + video playback.
Because the waterfall screen squeezes the middle frame, NEX 3S inherits NEX 3 and cancels the design of physical buttons using virtual pressure-sensitive buttons. As for the key feedback, it is done by an X-axis linear motor.
Occupying the middle frame also brings another benefit. The curved screen of NEX 3S supports edge touch operation. Achieve functions similar to the side buttons. The X-axis linear motor can approach real 4D game vibration. vivo NEX 3S also brings a new analog mechanical keyboard, which can simulate the dual-segment touch of a mechanical keyboard through a vibration motor.
In terms of color matching, NEX 3S has added succinic alcohol color matching, inspired by natural amber. In addition, there are two color combinations of liquid Tianhe and deep space streamer. There are a total of 3 color options.
In terms of system, vivo NEX 3S redraws desktop icons and physical animations, and launches a new browser —— NEX minimalist browser, removes the complicated functions and information, and filters advertisements to provide users with the ultimate browsing service.
In terms of cameras, the NEX 3S inherits the camera configuration of the NEX 3, equipped with 64M pixels 1 / 1.7-inch CMOS, 13M wide-angle macro + 13M telephoto lens. Compared with NEX 3, it adds human eyes to focus in portrait mode Features.
In other respects, NEX 3S and NEX 3 are the same. They also support Hi-Fi and 3.5mm headphone jack.
Even the price strategy is the same as NEX 3. The price of the vivo NEX 3S is the same as that of the NEX 3 4G. The price of the vivo NEX 3S 8GB + 256GB is 4998 yuan. The price of 12GB + 256GB is 5298 yuan. As long as you spent the price of a 4G version of the NEX 3 last year, you can buy a 5G version or a Snapdragon 865 processor NEX 3S. For those who like waterfall screen design, NEX 3S is the ideal choice.
There is no markup for the increase, which is NEX 3S.
