Editorial report

vivo NEX 3 5G technical sheet

The vivo NEX 3 5G suits buyers looking for a large display and 5G, provided they can accept pixel density below average for phones of its time: 363 ppi. Its 6.89-inch Super AMOLED display gives plenty of screen area, and the 93.6% screen-to-body ratio is among the best of its time. Pixel density is the compromise against that expansive panel.

The AnTuTu result of 497,858 is among the best of its time, and its 12 GB of RAM is also among the highest capacities. With 256 GB of storage, it has more room than most phones launched around the same time. The camera is better than most: its 1/1.72-inch main sensor is larger than those in most phones of its time, and 2x optical zoom is among the best. A 4500 mAh battery holds more than most, while 44 W charging is among the fastest of its time.

At 218.5 g, it is heavier than most phones of its time, a notable trade-off for a large-screen phone. Other features include Android 9, NFC, USB-C, dual Nano-SIM and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The vivo NEX 3 5G has a NeoScore of 6.1. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize a spacious display, generous memory, camera flexibility and fast charging, and can live with the weight and below-average pixel density.
