Vivo NEX comes with AMOLED display with 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution and extra tall 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The new vivo NEX Dual Display Edition is powered by a Snapdragon 845 chipset coupled with 10GB of RAM and 128GB of non-expandable storage.
The Vivo NEX Dual Display edition is powered by a 3,500 mAh battery and supports fast charging at 10V/2.25A. Talking about the camera, there’s no front-facing shooter, so the front panel looks pretty clean while the back panel houses three sensors.
The main one is 12MP with OIS and f/1.79 aperture lens while the secondary is just 2MP with f/1.8, which is probably used only for depth sensing. The third camera is a Time of Flight type (ToF) and it’s primary use is for distance measurement and for advanced face unlock. But that’s only if you are unlocking the phone while facing its back.
