VIVO NEX 3 5G Price in Nigeria

Just before last year’s world cup, VIVO NEX 3 was born. With almost all phone manufacturers, especially Samsung now having an OLED screen with curved edges as a standard design feature, it was no longer exciting to see this feature in phones until the VIVO NEX 3 5G came out.

VIVO NEX 3 has what the manufacturer calls “Waterfall Full View Display”. In VIVO NEX 3, the concept of a curved screen was taken to the next level. In VIVO NEX 3, the degree of curvature, degree of curvature is so extreme that much of the sides of the phone were covered with no room for hardware buttons. NEX 3 has a 99.6% screen-to-body ration. This is a beautiful phone that looks very cool. It is more of a design than functionality. Vivo is well designed so much so that the display doesn’t get in the way of the experience of the user. It has a fast and mostly reliable fingerprint scanner.

Buttons

Because the screen wraps around the body, there is no room for physical buttons, so the NEX 3 has none, at least where many expected it to be. Instead of buttons, the phone’s side and touch-sensitive. There are group sections that allow you to find it. It can be used to turn the display on and off or squeeze and hold to bring up the power function. The volumes up and down buttons are denoted by the symbols on the screen. It works like a regular hardware volume button.

Since we are talking about buttons and pots, on the head of NEX 3 are; Microphone, Display switch, Selfie camera, and 3.5mm audio jack. On the bottom; are more Microphones, a Speaker grille, a USB-C port, and a Dual Nano SIM card slot.

Cameras

NEX 3 has three Cameras, but what stands out is the 64MP sensor on its main camera. With a large 1/1.71-inch sensor, this is one of the biggest on a smartphone. The results of the night shots are pretty impressive. The photo also comes with an Ultrawide camera, and a 2x telephoto lens. None of these has optical image stabilization built-in.

VIVO NEX 3 has a pop-up selfie camera that is wider than usual to accommodate the flash. NEX 3 comes bundled with a 44W super-fast charger which charges 0-67% in just 30 minutes. VIVO NEX 3 at the moment is only available in China but will be made available in other countries this year 2020. LTE band may not be fully supported here in Nigeria. NEX 3 at the moment does not support officially Google services, including your famous Play Store.

VIVO has its app store which carries functional versions of Google apps and services. When setting up VIVO NEX 3, you’ve to agree to Vivo’s privacy and EULA policy. This page explains in detail why some of Vivo’s services like the Jovi voice assistant might require certain permissions to work.
