Vivo carved a name for itself arming most of its devices with impressive built-in cameras. The Vivo Nex is no exception, a device that debuted only a couple of months ago. Branded as one of the innovative phones thus far, the device features a 12 MP + 5 MP main dual camera and an 8 MP front-facing selfie camera.
Worth mentioning is that the Vivo Nex has a pop-up front camera. Something new, there are concerns on whether it would be sturdy enough to function correctly for long. According to Gizmo China, the pop open and close can last up to 50,000 times without any failure.
Despite that claim from Vivo, some may remain apprehensive since it may depend on how one uses their device. But if a recent video is any indication, it seems that Vivo has designed the front camera magnificently and that it may hardly be something to worry about.
In a video that recently emerged online, the Vivo Nex popup camera was shown opening a beer crown cock. Several beer bottles were opened with it, a strain that only few may consider trying.
In the end, the pop-up camera remained intact and unaffected. It also addresses concerns on the front-facing shooter functionality, having the ability to withstand the physical rigors. This is despite the device not being water-resistant, something that may have swayed most to be extra careful of the device.
This should also put to rest concerns on whether physical abuse may compromise the quality of shots and videos were taken. The Vivo Nex produces impressive photos for both the primary and secondary camera, at par with other devices in the market, Android Central said. A camera app is also available to aid users, an easy-to-use interface to assist people who want quality shots all the time.
Aside from the cameras, the Vivo Nex offers an impressive array of features that make it a logical phone to purchase. It sports a 6.59-inch Super AMOLED display (2316 x 1080 pixels) and runs on a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC with Adreno 630 GPU. The 8 GB of RAM further supports it with buyers getting the option to choose between a 128 and 256 GB ROM, as detailed on GSM Arena.
The Nex is dual-SIM ready and banks on a non-removable Li-Ion 4,000 mAh battery. The device comes with Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box and comes in black and red color variants. Initially launched in June 2018, the Vivo Nex retails for about $811.
