BBK’s Vivo brand of Android phones has really stepped up! Last year
they launched the thinnest 6.55mm Android phone on the market, and now
it appears they are looking to launch the world’s first borderless
phone!
What we have above is a leaked photo of the
purported screen for the Vivo X5. As the name would suggest, the X5 will
be a 5-inch phone, but a closer look at the photo shows that there is a
significant different between this 5-incher and others currently
listed.
The image distinctly shows that the X5 will be a
borderless phone with no bezel on either the left or right side of the
display. This is a trend many manufacturers have been aiming towards,
but it looks as though Vivo have beaten them to it.
Now
for the exciting part! It appears that Vivo are already gearing up to
launch the 5-inch Vivo X5, as this photo shows the Vivi team preparing
for a launch show! We can see that the X5 will in fact have a 1080 1920 x
1080 display and 13 mega-pixel rear camera, making the X5 a true rival
for the UMi X2!
Sources close to Vivo have suggested the X5
will use a quad-core MT6589 CPU, with 2GB RAM, 32GB of built-in memory
and a 2050 battery. The battery size may sound on the low side, but we
believe it is due to a super thin design!
