The majority of smartphones presently on the market are characterized by a sleek aesthetic that is inherently slippery in the hand, so the conceptual VIVO NEX V3 features a design that aims to change this.
Designed by Mladen Milic, the smartphone features an anti-slip material on various parts of the device to enhance the grip, while the 6.6-inch display has a bezel-free design along with a built-in fingerprint scanner. The ultra-slim smartphone has a 5,000 mAh battery that's also removable for easy replacement, while the dual-cameras, dual-LEDs and dual-speakers round it off as a photography and entertainment powerhouse.
The conceptual VIVO NEX V3 smartphone also features a familiar pop-up front-facing camera that helps to maximize screen space and enhanced everyday privacy.
