Finally, after reading up on various rumours about the Vivo X5 Pro, the Chinese company has officially taken the wraps off the device. Say hello to a new mid-range smartphone from Vivo with a front camera that can interpolate selfies up to a whopping 32MP.
Design wise, the Vivo X5 Pro has a metal and glass design – sounds familiar. It is surrounded with a rounded aluminium plate, and has a 2.5D glass on both the front and back. It sports a 5.2” Full HD display, and right beneath that, is a 64-bit Snapdragon 615 processor similar to the one found on the Xiaomi Mi 4i.
Camera wise, there’s a 13MP shooter at the back, and interestingly, an 8MP front camera that can stitch selfies together to give a resolution of up to a whopping 32MP. What do you do with such a high-resolution front-facing camera? Use it as an iris scanner of course. The Vivo X5 Pro has iris-recognition technology on board for an added layer of security.
