The Vivo Next Event: Unveiling the Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition
We just got back from the Vivo Next event held in Shanghai, China, and it was an exciting experience. The highlight of the event was the brand new phone that Vivo wanted to show off, called the Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition. As the name suggests, this phone features a primary display on the front of the device, accompanied by another display on the back of the phone. This secondary display is designed for various purposes, including taking photos and playing games.
The Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition builds upon the concept introduced with the original Vivo Next, which featured a small selfie camera that popped out of the top of the phone. However, this new design eliminates the need for a mechanical part, allowing users to simply use the screen on the back of the phone as a makeshift camera. This feature is not only convenient but also provides better image quality since users can turn the phone around to see themselves and take two selfies simultaneously.
The secondary display on the back of the phone has several other uses beyond taking photos. For instance, it can serve as a trigger for gaming, allowing users to tap on the display with their extra fingers to shoot or perform other actions in the game. This feature is particularly useful for first-person shooter games, where traditional controls may be less effective.
In addition to its innovative design, the Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition also boasts an improved fingerprint reader in the main display. While not a significant departure from the previous model's fingerprint reader, this update does offer some improvements over the earlier version.
One of the standout features of the Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition is its camera system. The phone is equipped with three cameras on the back, including a 12-megapixel main shooter, a 2-megapixel low-light camera, and a time-of-flight sensor. The latter is used to create depth maps for face unlocking purposes. This feature allows users to unlock their phone using the rear display, eliminating the need for the fingerprint reader in the main glass panel.
Another notable aspect of the Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition is its impressive 10GB of RAM. This makes it one of the first phones on the market to feature this amount of memory. Vivo claims that they are able to optimize their software to take better advantage of this additional RAM, resulting in faster app performance and reduced closure times.
The phone also comes equipped with the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor as its predecessor, although it is now paired with a single storage variant: 128GB of internal storage without expandable storage options. The Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition will be priced at approximately $730 USD and will be available for pre-order starting immediately.
Finally, it's worth noting that the Vivo Neck Stool Display Edition will not be made available in Europe or the United States, although an official announcement regarding availability and pricing for these regions is expected to follow later. For now, fans of Vivo can stay tuned to our website and social media channels for updates on this exciting new device.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey so we just got back from the vivo next event here in Shanghai China and they had a brand new phone that they wanted to show off called the vivo neck stool display edition so effectively this is pretty much exactly what it sounds like you've got the primary display on the front of the phone and then on the back of the phone you have another display that you can use for things like taking photos or even playing games so earlier this year with the original vivo next you had this little selfie camera that popped out of the top of the phone but this year they want to make it so you don't need that to happen at all there's no mechanical part at all now you can just use the screen on the back of the phone and use the primary shooters that you would normally use to take regular photos kind of as selfie camera so they're better cameras anyway and you're going to get a better image since you can just turn the phone around see yourself and take two selfies so there's definitely a few other uses for this screen on the back of the phone but obviously the main one is going to be the camera when you're taking a photo of someone they can actually see the photo before you take it so you can align the photo and they can also see it which makes it a lot easier to pose themselves if you're like trend take photos for Instagram so another use case that they showed off with this extra screen is gaming so usually when you're playing like a first-person shooter game it's kind of weird to just use two thumbs to be able to shoot and move around but since you have another screen on the back of the phone you can actually use that screen as kind of a trigger so you can use the extra fingers you have to tap on the back of the display and use it to shoot and do a lot of other actions in the game so now because you have two displays you've got two different ways to unlock your phone depending on which display you want to unlock first so in the main display just like on the last next you've got the in screen fingerprint reader which is probably a little bit better than it was earlier this year but on the rear display now you can use the three cameras in the back of the phone to use face unlock so you're getting three cameras on the back of the device there's a 12 megapixel main shooter that's made for regular photos there's a 2 megapixel low-light camera that's made to get a lot of low-light images and actually is used for a lot of videography and then there is a time of flight sensor which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like it shoots dots at your face to create this depth map which is used for face unlocks so if you don't want to use the in screen fingerprint reader on the main glass panel then you can actually use face unlock on the rear it's probably the other main feature here besides that secondary screen is ten gigabytes of RAM which makes this like the third phone on the market right now to head 10 gigabytes of RAM but vivo says that they are actually able to take a better advantage of this Ram that a lot of other people there's some special software algorithm that they're using that lets apps take more advantage of the RAM and just not close as often so besides that you're still getting the snapdragon 845 just like you did with the original necks and you're just getting one storage variant it's a 128 gigabytes there's no expandable storage here it's going to cost 4,998 RMB which is about seven hundred and thirty dollars and if you want to get it now you can pre-order right now or you can go buy it on December 29th in mainland China they haven't announced availability or pricing yet for Europe and the US but that will be coming later so that's pretty much it for the next dual display Edition it's not that different you're just getting that secondary display on the back which is pretty cool honestly I think there's a lot of features that can be enabled by this will definitely be having a review coming in the near future as soon as we can get our hands on an international unit so stay tuned for that and make sure you stay tuned to the website and ruther calm because of course we're your
