Vivo Nex A specs and features

Nex A shares the same 6.59-inch FHD+ OLED Super AMOLED display as the beefier Nex S. The device is powered by a more modest Snapdragon 710 processor along with 6GB RAM and a 128 GB storage.

The device also sports the same cameras at the rear, however there is no retractable front camera. Another major difference is the absence of the under-display fingerprint sensor. The device sports a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor instead.
