Last week, a Russian tech website Mobiltelefon had claimed that it had spotted the Vivo iQOO 3 moniker in the IMEI database. This indicated that the Chinese firm is not only working on a new iQOO gaming smartphone, but also it will be skipping the iQOO 2 moniker for it. The company had done the same with the NEX series. The original NEX had debuted with Vivo NEX S name and its successor that had debuted last year was dubbed as Vivo NEX 3. A new Vivo smartphone with model number V1950A has received certification from 3C agency of China. It could be the upcoming iQOO 3 gaming smartphone.
The 3C certification of Vivo V1950A has revealed that it is a 5G smartphone. Moreover, it also reveals that the phone may ship with a charger that may support up to 44W fast charging. The smartphone has also bagged approval from China’s MIIT authority. The listing revealed that it is equipped with support for China’s 5G frequency bands like N1, N41, N78 and N79.

There is no concrete proof to confirm whether the Vivo V1950A is the iQOO 3. It could be a different phone and probably the rumored Vivo flagship phone that may is expected to break cover at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2020 next month. Considering the fact that the Vivo V1950A is a 5G phone and it could be equipped with a 44 charger, it could be a Vivo flagship phone powered by the Snapdragon 865 mobile platform.
A reputed Chinese tipster has claimed that the Vivo V1950A will be equipped with a waterfall display which indicates that its screen will be extremely curved towards the edges. The “without any openings” text in the above shown Weibo post suggests that it could be a port-less design. It is advisable to wait for further reports to know the true identity of the Vivo V1950A.
The Vivo V1963A is the other upcoming smartphone from the company. The handset was recently spotted on Geekbench benchmarking platform with some of the key specs. The handset was seen with Android 10 OS and 6 GB of RAM on Geekbench. It is believed to be powered by the Snapdragon 765G. This indicates that it could be a budget-friendly 5G phone from the company. Hopefully, TENAA will spill the specifications of the Vivo V1950A and V1963A smartphones in the next few days.
