Vivo’s product manager Li Xiang has been busy teasing the upcoming Vivo NEX 3 flagship. The NEX lineup has been special so far featuring interesting models such as the dual-screen Vivo NEX 2 or the original Vivo NEX which featured the world’s first pop up camera! The new NEX 3 is going to retain the same level of interest as its predecessors because it comes with a curved display with a very high screen to body ratio and what’s being called as the ‘waterfall screen’. And now, Vivo seems to be ready for the official announcement of the phone on Monday.
Earlier today, Vivo’s official NEX series Weibo account posted the following: ‘See you next Monday’. If that wasn’t enough of an indication for us to mark the day, Vivo’s own profile forwarded the same post and said ‘Ok, see you next week’. Given the timing of these posts, it’s being said that the company will announce the launch event for the NEX 3 on Monday. Ideally, it should be around mid-September but we’ll have to wait for an official date till next week.

The Vivo NEX 3 is confirmed to feature a high screen-to-body ratio with a waterfall display that’s curved on both sides. We can see bezels on the top as well as the bottom of the phone, so it’s not going to be a 100% bezel-less display as previously reported. Also, the image of the phone shows no notches or cut out cameras on the screen which could hint that it features a pop-up camera just like the first NEX series model. There are rumors about an in-display camera too but that’s highly unlikely. Even OPPO confirmed earlier that it hasn’t perfected this technology yet.
The NEX 3 is expected to feature the new Snapdragon 855 Plus processor with 5G support. The rear camera setup will be housed in a circular housing. The phone will also come with a headphone jack unlike other flagships in the market today.
