Overview
An upgraded version of the Vivo U3x(u10), the Vivo u3 boasts a slim body of 6.53-inch FHD+ screen(1080 x 2340p). It has a notched design, which includes a waterdrop notch on the top which houses the selfie camera. Owing to its design, the phone gets a large screen-to-body ratio of 90.3% so that users get a wholesome experience watching movies and inside games.
Under the hood, the Vivo u3 runs with a powerful octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 (11nm), which is a 20% boost from its predecessor Snapdragon 665 chipset found in the u3x. This new processor means the more smooth and fluid experience for regular use as well as regular gaming and stuff. The device is available in Android 9.0 with Funtouch 9.1 overlay which has tech like “Multi-Turbo” included, and Vivo says it will boost the performance by 20%.
