Vivo Nex Dual Display Edition is the latest offering from the Chinse smartphone maker, and the new model in its ambitious Nex series of smartphones that feature innovative form factors. Launched in China on Tuesday, the Vivo Nex Dual Display Edition sports two displays - one in the front and one in the rear. It is also the first smartphone from Vivo to sport two AMOLED display panels, and three rear cameras. There is no front camera, notch, or display hole - instead, users can utilise the rear cameras as their selfie cameras, thanks to the rear display giving them a preview. Vivo Nex Dual Display Edition also sports premium specifications including a Snapdragon 845 SoC, 10GB of RAM, and 22.5W fast charging.

"As Vivo's premium line-up, the Nex series offers not only an extraordinary user experience to consumers, it also unleashes our imagination towards the future of design and development of smartphones. Combining a futuristic dual-display design and innovative technologies, Nex Dual Display Edition demonstrates Vivo's continuous exploration and pursuit of exceptional innovations for consumers," said Spark Ni, Senior Vice President of Vivo, in a press statement. Other smartphones in the Vivo Nex series include Vivo Nex, Vivo Nex S (China variant of Vivo Nex), and the Vivo Nex A (an affordable variant of Vivo Nex S). Of these, only the Vivo Nex has been launched in India - but we can expect the Vivo Nex Dual Display Edition to make their way to the country.
