Vivo Nex S

[uclarahul]

Will the Vivo Nex S work on Verizon's network.  I was interested in purchasing the phone but I don't want to waste my money if it doesn't work on the network.

Can you please provide a link to the specifications?

No LTE band 13 so it is NOT compatible.

Ok thank you. Wasn't sure after I saw this forum

It's important to know whether or not a phone will work on our network, uclarahul. I'm happy to help clarify. Vivo is not on the list of approved manufacturers. Android models from international sources/carriers (such as Vivo) are currently not approved. While Vivo isn't compatible, if you have the IMEI number of a different device and want to check compatibility, you can do that here: http://spr.ly/6580Df2x0 Does this clarify?

I'm using the global version of the nex s on verizon and i'm not having any issues, though i can't surf the net while on a phone call which i don't do anyway, something to do with not having all the bands, but other than that i'm loving it.

What did you do to get it to work? Where did you buy the phone? Thanks for giving me hope.

[TESPOSITO2000]

I bought the global version of the Vivo Nex S and installed a Verizon sim card and a T mobile sim card, and both work fine. I'm in Florida, USA. Bought the phone from Gear Best, and its the 8gb ram and 128gb storage version, and it has to be the snapdragon 845 processor.

Thanks again! If you don't mind me asking why are you using 2 sim cards?

Also do you have to make any setting adjustments with the phone out of box?
