5.5-inch IPS LCD Display

It’s getting difficult for new phones to show up with a new design and this problem is visible with the Vivo V5 Plus. It’s a solid phone with good build quality but it’s easy to confuse this phone with the latest iPhone 7 thanks to the placement of the antenna bands on the back. It shouldn’t be a problem if you like the design of the latest Apple flagships as it’s quite a premium-ish design with curved edges and metal back. The display is protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and there is a pre-installed screen protector as well. The 5-inch screen shows 1920 x 1080 pixels resolution and 401ppi of pixel density. It’s running Android 6.0 Marshmallow with a touch of Funtouch OS 3.0.

Dual Front Camera with Great Selfie Features

This is where the phone stands out from other mid-range phones, its selfie camera which is a combo of a 20-megapixel camera and an 8-megapixel one. The 20-megapixel one comes packed with Sony IMX376 image sensor and 5P lens system to make sure users get the clarity and natural colors while taking pictures. The secondary 8-megapixel front camera is there to get depth-of-field information and to give users DSLR like bokeh mode. There is also a 16-megapixel camera on the back in case you are wondering which is capable of capturing 2160p videos. There is also the OnePlus 3T and Google Pixel if you want a phone with good camera. Do keep in mind that these are slightly more expensive compared to the Vivo V5 Plus Dubai price.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 Processor

To make sure users get to enjoy a smooth Android experience, the Vivo V5 Plus is packing a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 octa-core processor paired with 4GB of RAM. It comes with 64GB built-in storage and there is no way to expand it as there is no microSD card slot. The battery is a decent 3160mAh Li-Ion non-removable one. You don’t have to worry about running out of battery as this phone supports fast battery charging. Other notable features include fingerprint sensor, microUSB 2.0 port, Bluetooth 4.0 and some cool features inside like the Smart Split 2.0 and Eye Protection mode. For those of you who want a phone with giant battery, there is the Asus Zenfone Max 2016 and Lenovo Vibe p1.
