Reviews for the Vivo Nex 3

Vivo NEX 3 Review – More than meets the eye
Source: The Tech Revolutionist English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Vivo NEX 3 comes with many practical new features that makes this smartphone a pleasure to work with. Unlike other brands which pushes out insensible features just for the sake of it, we can see that every feature that comes with the Vivo NEX 3 is highly usable, and can really be deemed as an improvement to previous technologies.

Vivo NEX 3 Review – Sleekest Flagship Phone with Beastly Specs
Source: Manila Shaker English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Vivo Nex 3 is becoming available in more and more markets. As the Chinese company continues to answer the demand of its fanbase, it’s only a matter of time until the succeeding Nex phones become a true flagship lineup. In the case of Nex 3, it feels more like a flagship smartphone than a concept. It looks great and it performs great.

Vivo Nex 3 review: A solid alternative to the Mate 30 Pro, actually
Source: Android Authority English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
If that price difference is maintained in other markets, the Vivo Nex 3 should definitely be on your list of options. It’s fast, has a beautiful display, a versatile camera, and overall it feels pretty well rounded. The software is objectively worse than on most competitors, however, and camera performance isn’t as good as it could be. It’s up to you to decide how much weight you put on these features, but the Vivo Nex 3 is a strong alternative to some better-known flagships out there.

vivo NEX 3 Review: (Almost) Zero-bezel Flagship
Source: Unbox English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
vivo really hit it out of the park with the NEX 3. A beautiful display, powerful internals and a great set of cameras make it one of the best flagships we have reviewed so far this year. All that’s left is availability and pricing – while we don’t know when the phone will land in the Philippines, vivo has said that they’re looking at bringing over the 4G variant over to our shores this year. If vivo sticks closely to the RMB 4998 price tag that the 4G version retails for in China when they bring it to the Philippines, then they definitely have a winner in their hands.

90% Vivo Nex 3 review
Source: Tech Advisor English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
There's not a lot to dislike about the Nex 3. Importers - especially in the US - are probably better off ditching the 5G and sticking to the regular 4G model, but beyond that this phone offers almost everything you might want from a 2019 flagship. The huge curved panel is beautiful, the battery is banging, and the internal specs rival just about any other phone on the market. The only real letdowns are the lack of waterproofing, an occasionally clunky operating system, and a camera that's good but can't quite keep up with the best out there.

Vivo Nex 3 Review: 64 Megapixels Cameras, Waterfall Display
Source: Igeekphone English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
There is no doubt that the Vivo NEX 3 is a true flagship phone because it has enough highlights to support it, such as the Snapdragon 855 Plus, UFS 3.0 flash memory, 64 megapixels main camera, 44W fast charge, etc., but these features are on the waterfall screen and In front of 5G, it is more like a icing on the cake. For the waterfall screen, we can not be optimistic about its development, but we must not deny, ridicule the courage of NEX 3 to try and the meaning of the screen.

Vivo NEX 3 initial review: Waterfall display is a next-gen nod to the future
Source: Pocket Lint English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The huge waterfall display - a term that we're sure will catch on, as it's likely to be a 2019-20 feature for incoming flagships - and high-resolution, well-designed triple camera system are two high of this Vivo. Not to mention the stacked innards for heaps of power and 5G connectivity. Sure, the software is a grind, and the absence of physical buttons to the side as a result of that display is weird - but, in the case of the latter, talk about futuristic, eh?

Vivo Nex 3 review: Hands-on
Source: Tech Advisor English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
So far there's not a lot to dislike about the Nex 3. Importers - especially in the US - are probably better off ditching the 5G and sticking to the regular 4G model, but beyond that this phone offers almost everything you might want from a 2019 flagship. The huge curved panel is beautiful, early camera tests show promise, and the internal specs rival just about any other phone on the market. Unless you're committed to wireless charging there really isn't much missing from the Nex 3.

vivo NEX 3 hands-on review
Source: GSM Arena English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
With a third model in the running, it's hard to associate the NEX lineup with a particular feature or form factor. The original NEX S brought us the first pop-up selfie design. The NEX Dual Display is yet to be matched by any of its competitors. And the NEX 3 is another innovative device in its own way.

Regardless, vivo had finally made a phone that’s at the same level as the offerings of Samsung and domestic rival Huawei. The vivo NEX 3 is chock full of awesome features and hardware that we’ve never seen before – features that will start to become standard on the next flagship refresh cycle a few months from now.
