for the Perfect Selfie
In a grand and elaborate ceremony at Solaire Resort and Casino, Vivo Philippines unveiled the Vivo V5 — their latest revolutionary smartphone designed for the perfect selfie.
Vivo, who is now the top 5 global smartphone manufacturer today, revealed to its dealers, the media, and bloggers its newest flagship phone — the Vivo V5 smartphone. It is secret to taking the perfect selfies because of its Perfect Selfie capabilities, such as a high-quality front-facing camera, fast performance, and upgraded features that ensure a great experience for its users.
The Vivo V5 is clothed in a sleek all-metal unibody shell back case that comes in champagne gold and rose gold colors. Up front, it features a 5.5-inch 1280×720 HD display covered in 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass for protection, giving the V5 an ideal premium feel in the hand for its mid-range price. Performance wise, the Vivo V5 is equipped with a MediaTek MT6750 octa-core processor running at 1.5GHz and paired with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage expandable via micro SD up to 128GB.
“The V5 embodies Vivo’s relentless pursuit of innovation, with technologies and functions that our consumers look for in their device. With the V5 and its industry-leading features, we continue to push the boundaries of a premium mid-range smartphone as we highlight Vivo’s high standards in smartphone design and feature,” said Vivo Philippines Vice President Hazel Bascon.
Aside from the camera, the V5 has many more abilities. It has a front-facing fast fingerprint scanner capable of unlocking the smartphone in as fast as 0.2 seconds. Yep! 0.2 seconds! It also features fast-charging technology to quickly top-up its 3,000mAh built-in battery.
Vivo V5 Redefines the #Perfectselfie
The Vivo V5 features an innovation that is set to be the benchmark of future smartphones. It is equipped with a 20-megapixel Moonlight front-facing camera featuring a 1/2.78” Sony IMX376 camera sensor coupled with a 5P lens system and an aperture of f/2.0. It also comes with a front-facing soft-light flash that helps illuminate its subjects whenever they take a selfie, ensuring that its users can capture perfect selfies anytime and anywhere.
Meanwhile, its rear camera boasts a 13-megapixel sensor that features phase-detect autofocus that will help users snap photos as they happen.
Vivo V5: The Extreme Smartphone
Among its new features is an improved version of Vivo’s take on multitasking, Smart Split 2.0, which allows users to view two apps side-by-side. Another feature is the Eye Protection Mode, which filters blue light from the screen to protect its users’ eyesights.
Vivo’s V5 smartphone is also equipped with a 32-bit AK4376 digital to analog converter Hi-Fi chip, as well as a new iteration of its proprietary operating system, Funtouch OS 2.6, now based on Android’s 6.0.1 Marshmallow operating system.
It was revealed during the launch that an upcoming device that is set to supplement the Vivo V5 will be released soon. The Vivo V5 Plus will feature a similar form factor as the V5 smartphone at 5.5 inches, but will feature a 1920×1080 display and 20-megapixel dual front-facing cameras that are set to enhance the perfect selfie experience of its users.
“With the launch of the Vivo V5, Vivo again sets the benchmark of a premium midrange smartphone with perfect selfie features that one would normally only see in flagship offers. Filipinos will once again have a capable and compelling smartphone choice, and one that can fulfill a wide range of roles in their everyday lives,” added Bascon.
Vivo also announced Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry as part of the Vivo family. The two-time NBA MVP and Golden State Warriors point guard will serve as the new face of the Vivo V5, highlighting its perfect selfie capabilities alongside local influencers Mccoy de Leon and Verniece Enciso.
“I’m really thankful for being part of the Vivo family and I’m looking forward to doing more activities with Vivo and its Filipino plans soon,” said Curry in a recorded message.
