Smartphones targeted at selfie-obsessed users aren't a new thing anymore. Brands including Gionee, Oppo, and Vivo have consistently been launching selfie-focused smartphones in India, which sport front camera enhancements. However, it isn't enough to be good at just one thing. Vivo's V5 series has been fairly popular, and the company is extending the series further. The new Vivo V5s is the third smartphone in the range, following the more affordable Vivo V5 and the premium Vivo V5 Plus.
Vivo V5s Summary
The Vivo V5s is an improvement over the Vivo V5. The phone will impress with its general performance, battery life, and camera quality. The HD display and the fact that it still runs the now-dated Android Marshmallow are few letdowns. The excessive bloatware was also disappointing. The Vivo V5s does a decent job when it comes to general operations like multitasking or running apps smoothly. If you're not that obsessed with selfies, there are better all-rounders at this price or less.
Vivo V5s Price in India
Vivo V5s price in India starts from ₹ 11,999. The lowest price of Vivo V5s is ₹ 11,999 at Amazon on 16th January 2026.
