Filipinos are known for being hospitable. It’s one of the most common traits of Filipinos, which  comes out naturally in their heart. But the truth is, we love to communicate and express ourselves in different things, especially in social media.

From being the “Texting Capital of the World,” we are now recognized as the “Selfie Capital of the World.”  

This is the reason why China-based smartphone maker Vivo recently unveiled its newest member of their Vivo V5 family—the Vivo V5s.

According to Vivo Philippines, the upgraded Vivo V5S is their answer to the rising millennials working from all walks of life. Knowing that Filipinos loves selfie, Vivo puts a powerful 20-megapixel front camera with f2.0 aperture. In result, this gives you a crystal clear, high-resolution selfies, wherein all the details are astonishingly visible. It also has a 13-megapixel rear camera with f2.2 aperture and an ultra-high-definition mode, which renders stunning ultra HD images of up to 52 megapixels.

But wait and there’s more! Selfie addicts won’t get bored on all pictures as the V5s features a selfie soft-light technology that creates lighting effects similar to those in a professional photography studio, with an enhanced night mode for clearer and more fabulous selfies taken at night or even in poor lighting conditions. What good about this is that it has a beauty mode 6.0 feature, which works like a skincare tool that automatically detects your gender and applies beauty touches accordingly.

On paper, the Vivo V5s is equipped with 5G-ready capacity for a more stable Internet connection—an upgrade from the 4G capacity of previous V5 units and other phones in the same price range. Storage-wise, it has a bigger capacity of 4GB RAM, perfect for games and applications, and a 64GB ROM—expandable up to 256 GB—that can store up to 302 films, 20000 songs or 26,000 pictures, and other documents. How cool is that?

Another new feature of the V5s is the App Clone, which allows users to log on to two different accounts using the same social media app, thus separating one’s professional and personal lives. It supports important chat apps like WhatsApp, WeChat, Line, BBM, Zalo, and Viber.

Size-wise, the V5s has a large 5.5-inch display in 2.5D corning gorilla glass that gives impressive video-viewing effects. Vivo designers also gave the V5s an amazing new look with finer details, as the U-shaped cover lines make the back cover look even more premium and high-end.

One of the best notable features of Vivo V5s include a smart split 2.0 that enables the V5s to keep two tasks on screen at the same time, an eye protection mode that filters out all the blue light and makes the screen light softer, and a 0.2 fingerprint unlocking. The new Vivo V5s is priced at P14,990.

We can’t wait to unbox this new V5s! Hopefully soon.
