Future beyond edges?

The NE 3 5G’s Waterfall FullView panel is 6.89-inches with an FHD+, 2256 x 1080-pixel resolution. Vivo claimed that this screen design, which spills over the sides of the model, gives it a screen-to-body ratio of 99.6 percent.

Its screen's curvature is so maximized that there is no space left for buttons on the side of the phone. With this, Vivo included virtual buttons called Touch Sense that work alongside a tactile feedback system.

In front, it even has an In-Display fingerprint scanner.

Moreover, it features a Snapdragon 855 Plus processor with a vapor chamber cooling system, 8GB/12GB RAM, and beefy storage of 256GB.

For the rear camera, it has a 64MP + 13MP wide-angle + 13MP telescopic triple camera setup arranged in a rounded panel while the selfie camera is a 16MP elevating. 

The battery capacity of NEX 3 is 4,500mAh which has support for Super FlashCharge 44W fast charging solution.
