Vivo has officially taken off the wraps of two of their newest phones, the X7 and X7 Plus. The new devices come right after the Vivo V3 and V3 Max, and sport similar specs and build quality. They’re also dead ringers for Apple’s iPhone 6, differing only in a few areas in their design.

- 5.7-inch AMOLED full HD display, 1920 1080 resolution
- 64GB of internal storage
- 16-megapixel rear camera with Sony IMX298 sensor, LED flash
- 16-megapixel front camera with f/2.o lens, LED

Both phones are similarly specc’d, sporting Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 652 processors and 4GB of RAM, which is the same hardware configuration as the V3 Max that we reviewed earlier. Other specs include a 16-megapixel selfie camera with a f/2.0 lens, fingerprint scanner, HiFi audio as well as 64GB of internal storage.
The main differences between the X7 and X7 Plus is the display – the X7 has a 5.2-inch full HD AMOLED panel, and the X7 Plus has a bigger 5.7-inch full HD panel. The X7 Plus has a nicer camera as well compared to its smaller sibling – 16-megapixel Sony IMX298 – over the 13-megapixel camera on the X7. As it’s a bigger phone physically, the X7 Plus has a higher battery capacity, at 4000mAh, over the X7’s 3000mAh.
Unfortunately both phones will still ship with Android 5.1 Lollipop with Vivo’s Funtouch OS when they hit the Chinese market. The X7 is expected to retail for RMB 2498. No price has been set for the X7 Plus as of yet.
