Hmm. I can not find that info either. But Vivo Nex model in India is with Snapdragon 845 which is supposed to have (CS43199, SSM6322) as per http://eng.soomal.com/edoc/10100000237.htm
I think owner's manual should have this info.

I also want to ask some questions :-

1) Does the os have animation lag when you use the device.
2) Can you see pixels because ppi at 388 is quite poor imo.
3) Can you describe the sound signature of indian model, is it bassy?

Gsmarena havent praised the phone as far as the audio quality . I dont blame the people that got excited with pocophone.I was feeling the same before i got my oneplus one lol flagship killer....
It's just that real world usage always differs and I trust the people in here more than some phone reviewers, so I'd love to get some insights from here.
Would love to get that phone since the LG V30 and G7 don't have the battery life I'm looking for, but bad sound quality would be a deal breaker.

If you can get used to Funtouch os vivo then buy it. In many speed tests it is omly 3-5 seconds slower than OnePlus 6 which doesn't get noticed at all. Plus for gamers , it just sips battery less and also is less hotter than OnePlus 6 (point to be noted).

Battery life stopped bugging me after i found an external charger that uses the same batteries as my ecig(18650) lol

Pocofone... The most overrated phone in 2018. Poor material and not neat firmware and speed as their ad. Thai users are complaining it a lot.(except those fanboys who always overpraise stuff) Not to mention its SQ here.

looking for a new selfphone, would be nice if it sounds good too so to plug my iem.. even if i think i ll use it not very much in this way
yesterday i went to check lg g6 870ds and v30, they should sound the same
but they are huge!!
all the phones now are very huge!
my perfect size is the iphone8, but coming from iphone6 with big problem of battery an software upgrade i decided to give up with apples
also thinking if a phone like lg v30 will be an upgrade over my dedicated dap hisound studio V anniversary..

That's just parroting single opinions on the internet which is on the same level as fanboys who blindly overpraise everything.

But thanks for the info, guys. Will probably try to get the Vivo Nex, LG V30 or wait for the V40.

Nice! What is the name of your previous phone, and how does the Xplay compare against it?

Meizu Pro 6+ .

It's like artpiggo said : the soundstage is more consistent , lots of details ( you can here details you didn't notice before very easily ) while remaining powerfull , and still neutral .
Vocals are awesome , really.

The gap , for me , between Shanling M2S and Pro 6+ was like 720p vs Full HD .
Xplay 6 is above .

So i guess 720p is Pro 6+ and Full HD is M2S, right?

Xplay 6 is above what, M2S or Pro 6+?
