Vivo seems to be currently working on improving the front cameras on its phone as the company's V5 smartphone featured a 20-megapixel selfie camera, tagged along with a front facing 'Moonlight Glow' front camera light to improve low-light photography.

It is powered by a 1.5GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6750 SoC coupled with 4GB of RAM. Apart from the 20-megapixel front camera, the Vivo V5 packs a 13-megapixel rear camera with a single-LED flash and PDAF.
