  • Remove sim card and Cleat Contacts App data. It works.

  • I'm a VIVO x3s user. Has been using for a year. Not bad for a light user like me. love the camera resolution, pictures turns out great. Just that the RAM a bit small for me. I'm preferring a larger RAM.

  • I want to buy vivo x3s ... so, can tell me the special on that phone?thanks

  • Try resetting your phone or try to flash Older version

  • same thing here. Plz share ur solution

  • it happened to my phone now. how did u solve it? plz

  • so many problems i am facing in vivo x3s mobile. phone contacts are not loading,mobile is hanging always. I suggest not to buy this mobile.

  • what is this funtouch? totally malfunctioning :(

  • 4 month work good now work very slow mobile not good vivo x3s

  • It worked well in the first two months then started creating problems. It's contact folder is very poor, starts very late. I don't understand which algorithm it works on which shows search results so late. It's major drawbacks are search services be it whatsapp, files or contacts; high battery consumption, slow processin and poor selfie mode. I would suggest the company to upgrade itself in services they are providing. Atleast they should work on search algorithms implemented in this phone which really irritates a user when it comes for calling someone and the phone remains busy in showing the call log or contact list.

  • Use big font app

  • I tried but the theme is still applied

  • Chang the ram and version

Now I'm a bit disappointed for this phone. I can't change the font. Using FUNTOUCH OS in this phone is also questioning for me since the UI Does it really belongs to Android? Please someone from VIVO explain to me. Email : [email protected].

  • Hi frnds, I want to buy vivo x3s mobile. I read somany reviews. All are good but one thing I want to know is , when we make a call, is it clear the sound..?

  • One of the best android phone ive ever had, great camera either back or front, sounds the best, battery awesome and I like super saver mode when im travelling ill always used it, I dont have any negative comments about it I love it.

  • Setting then select mixmatch

  • No bosd

  • Bought this handset 2 days before, its really good . specially camera quality & sound is awesome

  • Bought this phone like 2 weeks ago. My friends said its too expensive for the specs. Rp.2.999.000 in Indonesia but in my opinion this phone is perfect and good for the price. Design, user interface and the camera are top. HIFI works like magic for the music. Screen are perfect for games and watch video, no lagging at all. Battery is only 2000 but they have the I-manager where we can minimize the battery consumption. Shame that it doesnt support external memory. Dear Vivo, if only you could have have the external memory and bigger battery, I believe this phone beats other phones on this mid range smartphone.

  • Really a superb version presented by VIVO all over its a good option within your budget, battery is also good it totally depends on your consumption, camera too gud n speachless for the earphones they sounds Hi Fi.....

  • Yes supported OTG(on the go) for upto 128GB

  • yes

  • Fully black Wallpaper may be installed to get contrast. In call volume may be increased (volume keys work to adjust in call volume while phone ringing or talking).

  • Supports OTG & specified in official spec

  • same question ask to apple chairman yar its a good mobile dnt feedback like this without knowing

  • Can anyone tell me is this device is compatible with OTG(external device like pen drive)?

  • go 2 settngs-than mix match -ten select theme

  • I have just bought this phone.... I have becoming huge fan of it

  • help me please, how to get back to simple theme? now i use myhouse scene :(

  • Where u kept

  • Love this phone

  • Vivo x3s fonts are not good and when we call from this phone this volume is not sufficient to hear ...

  • This is a good one bt battery is very poor

  • This is a very good phone and very fast , but want to tell you something with the battery consuming before and after update. When I made the update as they suggest, the battery drain so fast.

  • this is very beautiful phone lookwise and featurewise specially its all gestures which saves more time in operating phone and consumes very less battery. vivo provides pfilip cover too whilecpurchasing its phone and saves money too.

  • For screenshot u can use press both powerkey and home key at same time

  • Guys, I just bought this device a week ago for 23k. I was impressed with its look and bought it. Let me give pro cons of it. Advantages: 1) Good display 2) Smooth 3) Good gestures 4) Good battery life 5) Sound is amazing Disadvantages: 1) Need custom launcher as default UI is bogus 2) Keyboard is not standard for typing 3) Can't find way to screenshot screen 4) Holding phone for long is hard 5) OS update missing. Overall I like this phone, if they provide OS updates and better UI this is best to have.
