Back in July 2021, a rumor revealed that Vivo may launch the Vivo NEX 5 in 2022. Well, we’re in 2022, and the tipster DigitalChatStation has already revealed the phone’s key highlights. The tipster sheds light on its cameras while pointing at its internal hardware.

The tipster reveals that the recently launched Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 powered phones have a lower zooming range in their telephoto lenses. The optical zooming capability of these lenses doesn’t go too far. However, with the upcoming Vivo NEX 5, things may change. The smartphone may have a 5x periscope lens, as per the tipster.

Having said that, the phone will indeed come powered by the latest 4nm Snapdragon 8 Gen chipset. The other hardware details are unknown at the moment. But coming back to cameras, previously, ZEISS was touted to be in partnership with Vivo for its upcoming phone cameras. Vivo’s NEX 5 could be the device where we may see the ZEISS branded lenses.

Moreover, reports suggest that the NEX 5 may come with a mammoth 7-inch display. It could be a curved panel with an under-display camera. It is worth noting that some of the past rumors claimed a 6.78-inch screen. Hence, we cannot conclude anything as of now.

In terms of other features, the smartphone may come with a 50W wireless fast charging support. But again, these specs aren’t confirmed, and we recommend our readers to take it with pinch of salt.
