Just to recap briefly, the vivo NEX is currently their flagship smartphone and it comes with a sliding pop-up camera. It features a large 6.59″ Ultra FullView display and it runs on a top of the line Snapdragon 845 processor with 8GB of RAM.

The device features a 12MP f/1.8 + 5MP f/2.4 dual-camera setup at the rear, while the hidden selfie camera is an 8MP f/2.0 shooter which can be activated in one second.
