Here comes the third member of the V5 series, the Vivo V5 Lite. As the entry-level handset of the V5 line-up, the V5 Lite sports budget key specifications, but still maintains a selfie-oriented setup. Let’s check it out and see if it’s a hit or miss.
Vivo V5 Lite
- MediaTek MT6750 octa-core processor
- 3GB RAM
- 5.5-inch HD IPS display, 1280 x 720 resolution, 2.5D curved glass
- 32GB expandable storage, up to 128GB via microSD
- 13-megapixel rear camera, f/2.2 aperture
- 16-megapixel front camera, f/2.0 aperture
- Dual SIM
- 4G LTE
- WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS, GLONASS
- 3000mAh battery

Looking at the spec sheet, the V5 Lite is basically a trimmed down version of the original V5, as it sports less RAM and weaker cameras. Naturally, the V5 Lite will be priced lower than the V5’s SRP of Php 12,990.
