Connectivity options on the device include dual (nano) SIM, Bluetooth 5, Wi-Fi, USB Type-C ad OTG support. The smartphone measures 162 x 77 x 7.98 mm and weighs 199 grams.

In the camera department, the Vivo NEX sports a dual rear camera setup with a 12-MP and a 5-MP sensor with f/1.8 and f/2.4 apertures respectively. At the front, the smartphone comes with an 8-MP selfie shooter that is housed in a pop-up mechanism and hence is not seen on the device until called for through the camera app. As a result, the device also skips on face unlock and instead uses Vivo’s proprietary in-display fingerprint sensor for security.
