Vivo has announced its latest flagship smartphone, Xplay6 in China. The smartphone comes with round home button and dual curved edge display similar to Samsung's Galaxy S7 Edge. The smartphone also borrows design elements from latest iPhones without breaking the bank.
Vivo Xplay6 not only matches the flagship design but it also manages to pack top end specifications. The Xplay6 features a 5.46-inch Super AMOLED display with a Quad HD resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, which should be gorgeous to look at considering the pixel density and colour saturation. Vivo Xplay6 also features an edge screen implementation similar to Samsung's where users can pin their favourite apps.
The Xplay6 is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 processor and not the latest Snapdragon 821. Under the hood, there is 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, which makes the device a really powerful Android flagship. On the camera front, Vivo Xplay6 sports a 12MP primary camera with Sony IMX362 image sensor, 4-axis OIS and f/1.7 aperture. There is a 5MP secondary camera below the primary camera for additional depth of field. The front-facing camera here is a 16-megapixel shooter, a new trend among most Android smartphone makers.
Vivo Xplay6 is backed by a generous 4080mAh battery and Vivo has packed all of this into an ultra-thin 5.2mm unibody, notes GizmoChina. Audio nerds relax, Vivo continues to support the use of 3.5mm headphone jack, which bucks the general trend. Vivo Xplay6 comes with ES9038 + 3xOPA1622 audio chip for Hi-FI audio output.
Vivo Xplay6 also copies the tweaked antenna design introduced with iPhone 7. Vivo calls the antenna design on Xplay6 as U-type antenna dome with 1.8mm narrow lines. Vivo Xplay6 features unibody aluminium design and runs Funtouch OS 3.0. Vivo Xplay6 is priced at 4498 Yuan (approximately Rs 44,980) and will go on sale from December in china. Vivo has not introduced Xplay series in India and Xplay6 is unlikely to land here anytime soon.
