Vivo has today revealed that the company’s next-generation Apex-series smartphone — Vivo APEX 2020 Concept Smartphone will be officially unveiled in its home country China on 28th February at 11:00 AM local time.
The company was expected to announce its APEX 2020 Concept Smartphone at the Mobile World Congress 2020 in Barcelona, Spain. However, as the MWC 2020 conference got cancelled due to concerns related to coronavirus, Vivo was forced to change it launch schedule and has now revealed that the phone will be showcased on 28th February in Beijing, China.
Making this announcement, Vivo said that the upcoming APEX 2020 represents vivo’s prediction and layout of mobile phone development and technological innovation in 2020, said the company.
The company has also released the first teaser poster for the smartphone that shows faintly curved screen and the number “120” which could be 120Hz screen or something complete different. Another image shows the back of the phone with periscope zoom camera for loss-less zoom.

For those who are unaware, Vivo’s Apex series for smartphones is known for launching devices with the latest as well as experimental technology. The upcoming device also hints at what we could expect from the company’s upcoming flagship smartphones.
Previously leaked renders of the upcoming smartphone suggest that the Vivo APEX 2020 will continue to have bezel-less design and apparently a super-high screen-to-body ratio. The device will utilise the in-display fingerprint sensor and would have a curved-edge display design.
It is also said that while APEX 2018 and APEX 2019 utilised a pop-up camera design, this year’s model will likely ditch that and may have an under-screen selfie camera. On the back side, there’s a circular Oreo-shaped main camera module with a rectangular optical zoom lens. The upcoming device will also come with 5G connectivity and fast charging technology support.
