Vivo To Launch Vivo V5s In India On April 27

Vivo has started sending media invites for an event on 27th April. It is reportedly launching a new smartphone named Vivo V5s in India. It is going to be an improved version of the Vivo V5 released in November 2016. Vivo V5 is a selfie-focused smartphone with a 20MP front camera. So needless to say, Vivo V5s will also be a selfie-centered smartphone. The hashtag “#perfectselfie” on the media invite confirms the same.

We are assuming that Vivo V5s will house a Qualcomm processor instead of a MediaTek processor. Also, the internal storage may be bumped up to 64GB. The front camera may not get any enhancement; however, there is a bright chance that rear camera may get an upgrade to 16MP. At this moment, you can take all these speculations with a grain of salt. We will keep you updated if we came across any developments on Vivo V5s specifications and price.

To recap, Vivo V5 sports a 5.5-inch HD (1280 x 720 pixels) IPS LCD display with 2.5D curved display and protected by Gorilla Glass 3. At 1280 x 720 pixels, you get a pixel density of ~267 PPI.
