Meanwhile, the APEX demo\u2019s top and side bezels around the display measure only 1.8mm, while the bottom is just 4.3mm. Besides, Vivo APEX specs include a 5.99-inch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oled-info.com\/flexible-oled\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flexible OLED<\/a> display with FullHD+ resolutions and 18:9 ratio. In addition, this OLED panel and its backlight help in scanning users reflected fingerprint pattern.<\/p>\n<p>So far, Vivo is building on the in-display, single spot technology in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/vivo-x20-plus-ud-now-comes-official\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vivo X20 Plus UD<\/a> smartphone. The technology is similar and optical in nature in Vivo APEX. However, the main difference is that you can put your finger anywhere in the bottom half of the display to read the print. Moreover, the APEX features a demo for a two-finger scanning mode (together, not sequentially). The purpose is to increase security access to certain data.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Vivo Apex concept phone hands-on\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wkndoqWH_FQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Vivo has a new Screen SoundCasting Technology, which vibrates the entire screen to produce the sound like a speaker. Meanwhile, Vivo&#8217;s solution to the selfie camera problem is a motorised, periscope-style 8MP module on the top bezel. Whenever you switch to the selfie camera, it extends up in just 0.8 seconds, then closes neatly back up.<\/p>\n<h3>Vivo APEX release date and price<\/h3>\n<p>That brings us back to the concept phone point looking really premium. Once Vivo irons out any issues and limitations, we can see at least from some the amazing tech to a similar end-user device. For the time being, the APEX is a premium tech demo rig that comes with no promises or information on Vivo APEX price and availability. Stay tuned with us for more updates of Vivo latest tech and innovations!<\/p>\n<div class=\"31e97817518902a1d132cf665aa26f91\" data-index=\"3\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_bottom -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7613953952\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another potentially game-changing feature that Vivo is showcasing in the Vivo APEX, a world-first half-screen, in-display fingerprint scanning technology.
