Not long ago, we reviewed the Vivo NEX and found it to be absolutely impressive in terms of features and performance. The NEX’s primary draw is its fullscreen bezel-less display and a pop-up selfie camera. Vivo priced the NEX competitively at Rs 44,990, which makes it a bargain considering the tech it houses. However, to make an even sweeter deal, Vivo will offer the NEX for a price of Rs 1,947.

Yes, Vivo will sell the NEX along with the V9 for Rs 1,947. If you are wondering whether there’s some kind of credit/debit card offer involved along with cashback on a particular kind of transaction, then you are mistaken. The extremely discounted price in on occasion of the Vivo Freedom Carnival sale celebrating India’s Independence Day. Although there are special discounts available for HDFC Bank customers, Vivo will straightway offer the NEX and V9 for Rs 1,947 in a flash sale. The flash sale will be held from 7th-9th August at 12 pm every day on Vivo India’s e-store. If you manage to secure a NEX or V9 in the flash sale, you could be the lucky one to get Vivo’s flagship for a bargain price.

Vivo will also be offering free Bluetooth headphones with the NEX, X21 and V9 handsets. Additionally, Vivo’s range of accessories, including its range of earphones and USB cables, will sell for Rs 72.

Therefore, if you were looking to grab the NEX, but if you were holding on to your savings for a while, now might be the right chance to try your luck. The NEX is built around the Snapdragon 845 chip paired along with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It sports a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED fullscreen display with negligible bezels all around and no notch. The 8MP selfie camera rests on a motorised pop-up mechanism, which brings it up whenever the camera is summoned. The NEX also houses a third-generation in-display fingerprint sensor.

Visakhapatnam (PTI): India fought back gallantly through Prasidh Krishna and Kuldeep Yadav after Quinton de Kock struck his 23rd hundred, keeping South Africa to a manageable 270 in the third and series-deciding final ODI, here Saturday.

India won the toss after judging the spin of the coin incorrectly 20 times in a row. They had little hesitation in inserting the Proteas into bat, a clear indication of dew factor dominating the thought.

After Arshdeep Singh sent back Ryan Rickelton early, De Kock (106, 89b, 8x4, 6x4) struck his seventh century against India and put on 113 runs off 124 balls with skipper Temba Bavuma (48, 67b) as the visitors moved to a healthy position.

De Kock was severe on Prasidh (4/66), who erred on length continuously in his first spell (2-0-27-0). The left-hander biffed the pacer for 6, 6, 4 in his second over to milk 18 runs.

The 32-year-old quickly pounced on anything that was short, and pacers Prasidh and Harshit offered him plenty of feed on his pet areas.

Bavuma was more sedate, and made runs through those typical dabs and jabs, occasionally unfurling a drive of elan.

De Kock moved to fifty in 42 balls, and never let the tempo down reaching his hundred in 79 balls.

India found temporary relief when Ravindra Jadeja induced a false slash from Bavuma to get caught by Virat Kohli at point.

The tourists got another move on through a 54-run partnership between De Kock and Matthew Breetzkle for the third wicket, and at 168 for two in 28 overs they were in a good position to press on.

But Breetzke's punishment of part-time spinner Tilak Varma forced a rethink in the Indian camp, as skipper KL Rahul brought back Prasidh for a second spell.

What a masterstroke it turned out to be! The Karnataka man broke the back of South Africa’s top and middle order in an exceptional second spell (4-0-11-3).

Breetzke was the first man to go, trapped plumb in front with a straight one and four balls later Aiden Markram uppishly chipped a fuller delivery to Kohli at short covers.

Prasidh soon castled De Kock, whose ugly cross-batted swipe failed to connect a full length delivery from the pacer.

All of a sudden, SA found themselves at a shaky 199 for five, losing three wickets in the space of three overs.

Once Prasidh was done away with the top and middle-order, left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep (4/41) took over and mopped up the tail as SA fell short of even a par total on this track.
