New alterations of the vivo NEX have been popping
out left and right. Just the other day, a second vivo NEX S version appeared in
a Geekbench score sheet with Snapdragon 710 and got certified a day later. But
now, a Chinese 3C certification report lists one more model dubbed as NEX A.
Unfortunately, the listing doesn't disclose anything
overly specific about the three devices - only that they support fast 5V/2A,
9V/2A and 10V/2.25A charging over USB-C. We can assume that the NEX A variant
will be a China-specific device while the NEX S and the full-fledged NEX
version will go global.
We can say for sure that the top-end model will have
the cool periscope selfie camera, a more powerful Snapdragon 845 chipset paired
with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage and will likely go for more than US$ 1,000
whereas the more affordable version with Snapdragon 710 and 6GB/128GB memory
configuration will settle for a less impressive selfie camera mounted on the
chin. The latter is expected to go for less than US$ 800 but, of course, it's all
just rumors for now.
The devices will be launched at an event in Shanghai
on June 12 so stay tuned for the official unveiling.
