Vivo teases NEX Dual Display DeMarcus Cousin Limited Edition

Habeeb Onawole — Sat, 19 Jan 2019 15:15:18 +0000

It is no news that Vivo is an official partner of the NBA. The Chinese phone manufacturer has a few NBA-themed limited editions phones, though we didn’t get any last year. Today, Vivo released a teaser for a new NBA limited edition phone and we think it is of the NEX Dual Display.

Vivo released a poster today teasing the arrival of a new NBA limited edition phone. From the appearance of the device, we believe it is the NEX Dual Display since there is no notch and the bezels are really thin. However, that’s not the only info the poster reveals.

Vivo’s brand ambassador for a few years now has been Golden State Warrior player, Stephen Curry. It appears his contract has expired as the poster also teases a new brand ambassador. Those familiar with the NBA will recognize that jersey number belongs to DeMarcus Cousins who also plays for the Golden State Warriors. We believe this means Cousins is Vivo’s new brand ambassador and we may actually be getting a Vivo NEX Dual Display DeMarcus Cousins Limited Edition.

The limited edition NEX Dual Display is expected to come with a special retail box with the NBA and or Golden State Warriors’ logos. It should also come with branded accessories and souvenirs and a custom UI.

Sadly, the poster doesn’t say anything about a release date but we expect more details to surface soon. Nevertheless, we won’t be surprised if Vivo announces the limited edition NEX Dual Display alongside the Vivo APEX 2019 on January 24.

NBA 2K16 for Android Review

Linus — Fri, 23 Oct 2015 21:45:41 +0000

Whether you like basketball or not, you have probably heard of NBA and some of its star players. The 2k Inc. has been making NBA video games for quite a while now and this time around we have the NBA 2K16 version for a review.

NBA 2K16 for Android Review: VIDEO

CONCLUSIONS

All in all, the NBA 2k16 for Android can be a really good mobile basketball game but it is far from its prime time.

We have good graphics, which, however, are not yet optimised on a lot of phones. Also, the gameplay, basketball IQ, the variety of game modes, a wide array of customisation options and so on make the NBA 2k16 a really good offering by the 2k games.

However, there are just so many issues and it seems that the game was released like 3 weeks earlier than it should. In fact, I would even call it a beta version.

The game is lagging on many even high-end phones and all those major sound issues are very annoying. I mean there are bugs that you can live with but the sound is just terrible.

My conclusion is simple. We can have a really good NBA basketball game with lots of features and modes but… We may see that only after a software update. Maybe after two software updates.. or after 3 software updates.
