Yeah!!! Now we get the junktouch OS experience on 2 screens !!! Just like Nubia, I can't fathom why the second screen is not much smaller. Big back screen = ugly case options.

Either way, still a cool device...I just hope for an improved camera package.

I'll take Funtouch over Stock Android anytime. Just change the launcher and it's a new phone.
pfff already a vivo nex 2? it was a mistake buying this phone.
Rumour is that this isn't the Nex2 but another model due out next month. The NexS is ideal for me since I rarely use the front camera.

The rumour say that this is not the Nex 2 but a variant of Nex.

I am not totally sold on the idea of having two screens. It can be be cost effective and a screen take more physical space inside then a camera module which will result in smaller battery. I really dont like the the slide solutions I am sorry to see not more adopting the pop out camera solution. Elephone and Vivo is alone in this right now as far as I know

Good to hear Vivo is experimenting with unique design and approach but i realy don't like the dual screen idea.
First of all you won't be able to use any kind skin and cases.
And second one having a second screen at the back there's double of changes of broking screen.

I do not want to have any worries and concerns about a possible back screen broken glass only worrying about the main screen broken is enough:p;)

The dual-screen Nubia X comes with a case that works well.

Vivo nex 2 - dual screen

yes I know but will be much more limited choices from third party cases.
And of course no skin no party to me.
This design is DOA to me and many others I believe.

The more unique device the less support from third party accessories.

Imagine that Vivo Nex has now very limited support from accessories aspect I don’t want to think how much less with dual screen device will have.

I'm very satisfied with my Nex. No need for this one.

Exactly me too.
I’m more curious about what Android Pie will bring Nex 2 than the dual screen device by itself.
I assume what dual screen device offer from software aspect the same Vivo will give to us.

Pie won't offer anything much different because it's buried under Funtouch.

I’m only hoping for AOD improvements and adding accent color customization and native black/dark theme.
Vivo theme store is completely garbage and as we know substratum theme won’t work on Pie without root.

That’s my only wishes for improvements.

Not needed anything else.

SD card, and nfc, and wireless charging would be the ultimate. I could care less about a selfie cam... I've only used this one a handful of times just to show it off... LoL
exactly what i thought, NFC and wireless charging and Nex 2 is good to go :D and thinner chin will make Nex 2 a perfect phone.

I dont think the leaked pictures are true, simply the design looks like an unfinished prototype. Also this will not be called Nex 2 . It wil lbe called NEX and then some other letter probably. Anyway, not sure what to think about the dual screen, in the current form I dont like it..

Now it seem the inifinity O display will be the next big thing... I just think the pop up camera solution is the best it allow 100% screen to body ratio.
I Think people in general have WAY too much fear of the electronic motors will fail. Have we seen any if of these motors fail yet on vivo nex or oppo find x ?

I can only talk about myself but I dont use the selfie camera that often, and I know a lot people are like me... the motor will hold for many years for me.
