Vivo has launched its latest flagship mobile smartphone, the V5s, continuing with Vivo's mission of delivering phones that provide users with "perfect selfies".

"Our focus group shows that users tend to take selfies in their everyday life," explained Alex Feng, Global VP, Vivo. "The V5s is a groundbreaking smartphone that aids users' pursuit of the perfect selfie in low-light environments and fulfills their desire to beautify portraits with natural effects."

The V5s is powered by an octacore CPU, with 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM, expandable to 256GB with a micro SD card. The updated Funtouch OS 3.0 operating system, based on Android 6.0, a 20MP front camera and optimised selfies with the Selfie Softlight feature offer a smoother selfie and photography experience.

Selfie Softlight creates lighting effects that are comparable to professional photography studios. The function captures radiant complexions even in low-light conditions. In addition, Vivo's Face Beauty 6.0 function allows users to beautify selfies with one click. A Group Selfie feature captures every smile in a group shot without squeezing in or missing anyone. Meanwhile, the 52MP Ultra HD photo feature shoots multiple frames in quick succession and creates 52MP photos with more detail and less noise.

"By launching the brand new V5s, Vivo heralds a new era of photography in the mobile phone industry," noted Feng. "It continues to offer users gorgeous selfies and an enjoyable user experience by upgrading our photography technologies as well as introducing new features."
