Vivo NEX 3 5G scores close to 500K on AnTuTu benchmark

Vivo took the wraps off the Vivo NEX 3 5G a couple of hours ago in China. It is the first phone in the world to feature a waterfall display featuring a curved display on the sides and no buttons on its body. Apart from its next-gen design, the phone also comes with high-end specifications including the new Snapdragon 855+ processor with up to 12GB of RAM. So, it’s not surprising that the NEX 3 managed to score really well on the AnTuTu benchmark.

Vivo NEX 3 5G antutu

The Vivo NEX 3 5G scored 493,787 points on the AnTuTu benchmark v8.0.9, which is pretty high for an Android device. The model in question had 8GB of RAM onboard with 256GB storage, which is the base variant of the 5G model. But we can expect the 12GB RAM model of the NEX 3 to score even higher on AnTuTu. This is because AnTuTu’s new version also considers the memory configuration of a phone while calculating the final score. Higher storage and RAM configurations get higher scores and vice versa. In fact, in the recent top 10 Android flagships on AnTuTu for August list, the storage configurations of each device were specifically mentioned for the first time.

The Vivo NEX 3 comes in two versions: 4G and 5G. The 4G model is priced at ¥4498 (~$636) while the 5G model starts with 8GB RAM for ¥5698 (~$806) and offers up to 12GB RAM for ¥6198 (~$877). You can read all about the Vivo NEX 3 5G from our launch coverage here.

OnePlus confirms that all future OnePlus devices will have 90hz displays

By

The OnePlus 7 Pro is a beloved device among many Android users, and one of the main reasons for this is the wonderfully buttery 90hz display. The extra smoothness has managed to sway many people to the device, and it’s not hard to see why. Hence, it’s reassuring to see OnePlus confirm that all their future devices will have 90hz displays.

The company clearly knows that they’ve got a winner of a feature on their hands. They’ve been marketing it heavily in the advertising for their upcoming OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro. Even the invites for the launch have the feature front and center. Most people absolutely expected this to be the case, but it’s still very nice to hear it officially from the company.

Editor’s Pick: It’s official! OnePlus 7T Series will be launched in Europe on October 10

If the leaks are on the mark, the OnePlus 7T series will be a subtle evolution of what you saw in the 7 Pro and standard 7. The basic design template for the device will remain. The big change is that you’ll get a faster Snapdragon 855 Plus chip, a 16-megapixel wide-angle rear camera and new photography tricks that could include a special macro mode.

The new series of phones will be revealed on September 26th in both India and North America, the company announced today. The series is expected to consist of two devices, the OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro, which will act as follow-ups to the two phones the company released earlier this year. Following that, OnePlus says it will hold a third event in London on October 10th, where it says there’s “much more to come.”

OnePlus will launch the OnePlus 7T starting from September 26. The Chinese tech giant released the launch itinerary today via a poster on its social media handles vis-a-vis Twitter and Instagram. The poster details the launch date and time for OnePlus 7T in India, North America and Europe.OnePlus 7T

The OP 7T will be launched in North America on September 26 at 10.30 AM EDT. On the same day, the device will be unveiled in India at 7 PM IST. Thereafter, the phone will be showcased for the European market on October 10 at 4 PM BST.

EDITOR’S PICK: Throwback Tech Thursday: T-Mobile Pulse and Pulse Mini – A Huawei Affair?

Do take note of the different caption of the events holding in the three regions as they hold clues to the products the company will be unveiling on that day. For India, it is captioned as “India OnePlus Launch Event”. That is likely because the company will be unveiling the OnePlus TV alongside the OP7. The North America launch caption seems to reaffirm earlier rumours that the OP 7 Pro may be launched in the US. We say so because it is only captioned “North America OnePlus 7T Reveal”. Whereas, the listing for Europe has the caption “Europe OnePlus 7T Series Launch Event. This could be an indication that the OnePlus 7T Pro will be launched first in Europe alongside the OnePlus 7T. The India launch maybe for the OnePlus TV and OnePlus 7T only. This is the first time the T series is getting a Pro variant and so the company may not want the OnePlus TV release to overshadow the launch but we’re not so sure.

Resellers in Hong Kong are selling the Galaxy Fold for astronomical prices in the Grey Market

The Samsung Galaxy Fold is the world’s first true commercial foldable flagship. This makes it an exceptional device, despite the drama that the phone went through before its release. South Korea was the first country to get the Galaxy Fold officially, and a limited global release is due on September 18. However, it looks like the craze for the world’s first commercial foldable is sky-high in Hong Kong. Resellers are reportedly selling the device for astronomical prices in the grey market.

The official price tag of the Galaxy Fold is 2.4 million won (~$2,011) in South Korea, the only market where the device is officially sold right now. But resellers in Hong Kong have already managed to pick up a handful of units in the initial batch. Given how only 1000-2000 units were reportedly shipped in this first batch, getting a Samsung Galaxy Fold internationally through conventional channels, especially in Hong Kong, is next to impossible. That’s why Hong Kong resellers are asking nearly HK$38,000 (~ $4,856) for the Galaxy Fold in the grey market. That’s 2.5 times the original price tag of the device!

⇒ Editor’s Pick: Samsung is quietly working on a foldable phone that folds into a square: Bloomberg

 

But will anyone buy the Galaxy Fold at such astronomical prices?

Yes. There might be a few interested buyers for the device, even at this price. The Galaxy Fold is exceptionally unique in its market segment with zero competitors as of today. And getting a unit will not be easy anytime soon, especially in a market like Hong Kong where Samsung is yet to announce an official launch date. So the resellers in the grey market are the quickest way to get hold of the device in the region.

On a related note, the Galaxy Fold is up for pre-registration in China.

Vivo NEX 3 5G arrives with massive waterfall screen, triple rear cameras and more

By

-

The Vivo NEX 3 5G was unveiled at an event in Shanghai today. The phone has a unique 6-antenna design for 5G, a massive “waterfall” display, and triple rear cameras. There is also a 4G version of the device.

Vivo NEX 3 featured

Design

The highlight of the phone’s design is its Waterfall Display which curves right into the area where you will usually find the power and volume control buttons. As a replacement for the removal of the buttons, Vivo has included a pressure-sensitive sensor and X-axis motor in the side of the phone. The pressure sensor doubles as the buttons and the motor provides vibrational feedback that mimics a hardware button press.

The Vivo NEX 3 has triple rear cameras that are housed in a circle on the back. The sensors are arranged in the same fashion as the holes in a fidget spinner. What we believe is a laser focus module sits in the middle and outside the cameras’ housing sits an LED flash.

For the 5G model, Vivo says it uses a special 6-antenna design that is distributed along the sides of the phone to ensure that 5G signal is stable.

Specs

The phone packs a 6.89-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 2256 x 1080 resolution and a 93.6% screen-to-body ratio. There is no notch and neither is there a punch hole. Instead, there is a pop-up selfie camera with its own LED flash that slides out from the middle part of the top side of the frame.

Vivo NEX 3 selfie camera

The 4G and 5G models are powered by the Snapdragon 855 Plus processor. The 4G variant has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage while the 5G version comes in 8GB and 12GB RAM models with 256GB of storage. Both versions of the phone use UFS 3.0 storage.

It has a 16MP f/2.09 front-facing camera while the rear is home to a 64MP f/1.8 camera paired with a 13MP f/2.2 ultrawide angle camera and a 13MP f/2.48 telephoto camera. The phone boasts camera features such as HDR and Hyper-HDR.

Vivo NEX 3 hidden sensors + X-motor
The Vivo NEX 3 uses a combination of hidden sensors and a motor as a replacement for power and volume control hardware buttons.

There is NFC, Dual-SIM, Dual-VoLTE, Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 5.8GHz WiFi. It also has an audio jack at the top, an AK4377 HiFi audio chip, liquid cooling, and 4D game shock.

The NEX 3 packs a 4500mAh battery with support for 44W Superfast Flash Charge via USB Type-C. There is no support for wireless charging which is disappointing considering its price. The phone runs FunTouch OS 9.1 based on Android 9 Pie and comes in black and a gradient color similar to the Huawei P30 Pro’s Breathing Crystal color variant.

Price and Availability

The Vivo NEX 3 is priced at ¥4498 (~$636). The NEX 3 5G with 8GB RAM has a ¥5698 (~$806) price tag while the 12GB version will sell for ¥6198 (~$877). It is available for pre-order on the Vivo online shop.

It is placed vertically on the left top side of the back panel while the selfie shooter is a 16MP one and supports face unlock.

Ulefone Armor 7

It’s worth mentioning that Armor 7 will support global frequency bands including the Band 71 of T-Mobile which is be able to broadcast signals that travel farther, cover more area especially in the rural areas, works far better in the city, and maintains good data speeds. What’s more, it is said that the new device will run a custom OS based on Android 9 Pie.

The phone is expected to officially hit the market next month but we still have no further news about the launching price. Follow the company’s official site for instant updates on new devices and offers.

Chuwi UBook Pro full specs released, is it the most versatile laptop of 2019?

By
Dimitris Economou
-

Chuwi recently launched the warmup campaign for its new crowdfunded 2in1 tablet – UBook Pro- the most powerful and versatile 2-in-1 tablet CHUWI ever built. Its predecessor was widely praised and many users have been waiting for the successor of this series. And Chuwi didn’t disappoint them.

 

Classic U shaped kickstand, lightweight and portable 2-in-1 tablet

We already know that the device sports a very slim body at just 9mm and its weight reaches just 780g (~1.72lbs) making it very easy to carry around. Also, it supports a magnetic keyboard dock like the previous model.

Chuwi UBook Pro

Contrary to Surface Pro’s metal plate kickstand, the UBook Pro features a more light-weighted u-shaped kickstand which is more agile and convenient. Moreover, this technique left free space for a bigger battery and a better cooling system. The speakers are hidden on each side of the device offering better volume and sound quality than normal tablets’ speakers.

Chuwi UBook Pro

The u-shaped kickstand has a maximum opening angle of 145° and can transform the tablet into a laptop, workstation or tablet, offering flexibility to its user in every situation.

 

The 12.3″ FHD IPS display with 3:2 aspect ratio brings larger workspace

Of course, the company’s best device to date should come with the corresponding display and Chuwi chose a fully-laminated 12.3″ FHD IPS panel with 3:2 aspect ratio that offers a vivid and vibrant experience to the user whether he’s working with pictures or watching videos.

Chuwi UBook Pro

The 3:2 aspect ratio is vigorously promoted by Microsoft for the Windows 10 OS as it is the golden ratio for productivity when typing, web browsing, coding, etc. What’s more, the touch panel supports 2048 pressure-sensitive stylus.

 

Intel’s 8th Gen Core™ m3-8100Y

Besides the looks and build quality, the UBook Pro comes with the powerful Intel Core M3-8100Y processor that has an overall performance improvement of more than 50% over the previous gen. The processor is built with Intel’s advanced 14nm+ manufacturing process, it’s a dual-core/four threads chip and the highest frequency reaches up to 3.4 GHz.

Chuwi UBook Pro

Also, with the Intel UHD Graphics 615, hardware decoding of 4K video is supported and it also provides a good experience in video editing and even some heavy games

 

Full-featured ports to meet all kinds of needs

As seen in the provided photos, UBook Pro is equipped with many I/O ports that include 2 x USB-A, 1 x USB-C (is said to be full-featured and support PD fast charging), 1 x Micro HDMI, 1 x 3.5 mm headphone jack, and also a DC power supply jack, Docking contactor at the bottom, and a TF card reader. The total of these ports can meet daily needs and also offer external display, high-speed data transmission, a portable Docking keyboard, etc. Definitely a generous set of ports that when compared with devices from giants like Apple and Microsoft seems way superior. Maybe these companies have something to learn from smaller manufacturers.

Chuwi UBook Pro

The promotion on Chuwi UBook Pro has already begun on the company’s official website where you can subscribe and get 25% off the official price. The expected price is around $600 and when compared with competitors with similar devices like the Surface Pro 6 and iPad Pro, it is absolutely competitive.

Meizu 17 renders pop-up online, feature curved display.

Meizu haven’t really been having the best of times, which is really quite a shame. Among the big Chinese manufacturers, Meizu has been arguably one of the most unique and solid when it comes to pure quality and design. Lately however, their devices have been slightly more simple, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but does mean that they’re less exciting. This may change with the upcoming Meizu 17, if these new renders are to be believed.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about these Meizu 17 renders are how the device is curved but still remains nice and angular. It features a Samsung style curved display, similar to the one on the upcoming Huawei Mate 30 Pro. The display curves over the edges, but leads to an angular bottom and top, which is a rather unique touch. The bezels around the display are also relatively thin, with no unsightly notches in sight.

Editor’s Pick: Meizu HiFi DAC Pro Headphone Amplifier Review

The bottom of the device holds the speaker grille and USB-C port, though there’s unfortunately no 3.5mm headphone jack in sight. Leaks claim the device has a 20MP front-facing selfie camera on top, and that it uses screen vibrations instead of an earpiece speaker. In addition, Meizu 17 a triple rear camera, with one 48MP unit and ring flash vertical arrangement.

Meizu has gone two years without a major upgrade to its flagship design and the Meizu 17 could be the next version to introduce that big change. The Meizu 16s Pro was launched just earlier this year so we don’t expect to hear much about the Meizu 17 for a while. But in the mean time, stay tuned on Gizmochina.com for all your Meizu related news and updates.
