Vivo Xplay 3S unveiled with 2K display and fingerprint reader

Vivo might be a Chinese smartphone manufacturer that you are not familiar with, but that will probably change quite soon. They are making massive strides in their home country and are looking to expand to other markets in the new year. We are keen to see where they are going, as their offerings have been enticing to say the least. Their newest phone is the Vivo Xplay 3S, successor to the Xplay from last year.
This new Android phone is still the first with a 2K display (2,560 x 1,440 resolution), which works out to be a ridiculously high 490ppi density on the 6-inch panel. Other specs include a 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, a 3,200mAh battery plus support for both TD-LTE and FDD-LTE. This is all inside a 172g body with a 4.5mm-thick metallic bezel, though the phone is just a tad thicker towards the middle due to its curvature. The actual new bit this time round is the fingerprint reader on the back, which lets you unlock the device and sensitive documents.
Do these kinds of devices excite you? What would be inside your dream phone?
