The flagship Vivo Nex 3 is here and it boasts a notch-free waterfall display with the industry’s highest screen-to-boy ratio at 99.7%.
Vivo is able to do this by getting rid of the notch which usually houses the front-facing camera like in the case of the Huawei Mate 30 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max flagship phones. This was achieved on the Vivo Nex 3 by switching to a snazzy pop-up front camera instead, tucking it away when not in use.
Earlier in the month, an official launch was held at Vivo’s first ever roadshow in Singapore at Bedok Mall which was attended by many enthusiastic Vivo fans, including Mediacorp Artiste Elvin Ng.
The local hunk shared his personal experience with the Vivo Nex 3 premium flagship phone – he especially loved the waterfall screen.
At the roadshow, visitors were given hands-on experience with the Nex 3 where they get to test out features like the Super Macro Camera function, among other key highlights.
