#Vivo APEX

First seen last January 2019, VIVO's latest concept iteration of its innovative APEX smartphones, APEX 2019, has arrived in the Philippines. The APEX 2019 kept its full-screen display just like with its 2018 predecessor. What's interesting is that instead of a physical button, the APEX 2019 comes with a capacitive button. At the back, you'll see two cameras and a LED flash placed above the "APEX" logo. Given that this device is a concept smartphone, a VIVO employee told me that the sensors are subject to change so they couldn't provide an exact specification as of writing. Dubbed by the company as the VIVO Magport, it serves as the charging port of the device. I checked the APEX 2019's camera feature; however, the only options there are the shutter button and the change camera which is weird given that it doesn't have a front camera feature. I assume that VIVO will use an in-display selfie camera as their solution to eliminate the elevating camera trend that's popping out this year.
