As 2019 comes to an end, we're left wondering what the next decade has in store for us. For smartphones, it's starting to look like 2020 is going to be full of the 5G devices that have begun popping up this year. But due to the lack of 5G network coverage in Malaysia, it's not as exciting for those of us living here. Still, the vivo NEX 3 5G has a lot of merits, even if you don't take its 5G capability into account.
