As far as the other specs are concerned, the vivo V5 Plus features a 5.5-inch full HD display with a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 5. The phone is powered by a 2.0GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, mated to a beefy 4GB of RAM. The storage capacity on board is 64GB, which can’t be expanded further as the device lacks a microSD card slot.

At the rear, the vivo V5 Plus sports a 16-megapixel primary shooter with an LED flash and 4K video recording support. Software-wise, the handset boots Funtouch OS 3.0, which is based on Android Marshmallow. In terms of connectivity, it offers 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS. A 3,055mAh battery with fast charging support keeps the package running.
