Vivo X5 Max Specifications
Vivo X5 Max features a 5.5″ 1080p Super
AMOLED display which is also the thinnest
measuring just 1.36mm. Under the metal chassis
lies an octa-core Snapdragon 615 SoC comprising
1.7 GHz quad-core Cortex-A53 and 1.0 GHz
quad-core Cortex-A53 64-bit CPU backed by 2
GB RAM. There is an internal storage capacity of
16 GB which can be further expanded up to 128
GB via Micro-SD slot which also doubles as a
Nano SIM card holder for dual SIM connectivity.
The phone runs Android Kitkat dressed in Vivo’s
custom UI Funtouch OS 2.0 For mobile photogs,
Vivo X5 Max packs in an LED flash equipped
13MP camera with a Sony IMX214 sensor, along
with a 5MP snapper for selfies.
Vivo X5 Max
The smartphone comes with the regular
connectivity options, and unlike Oppo R5, Vivo X5
Max keeps the 3.5mm headphone jack instead of
the micro-USB adapter Oppo R5 has forced upon
us to maintain its anorexic waistline. Vivo’s
choice to go with the traditional 3.5 mm jack
shows it dedication towards audiophiles as the
smartphone packs in a range of audio goodies –
a Yamaha YSS-205X signal processor, Sabre
ES9018K2M DAC, exclusive Sabre ES9601
headphone amplifier and OPA1612 amplifier as a
complete Hi-Fi 2.0 package for an enhanced
audio performance and pre-loaded Karaoke app.
All this is fuelled by a non-removable 2000 mAh
battery.
Vivo X5 Max Competitors
Vivo X5 has many competitors that match up to
its waistline- Oppo R5 being the closest at
4.85mm, followed by Gionee Elife S5.1 flaunting a
5.1 mm thin profile. In terms of performance and
functionality,Vivo X5 Max comes neck and neck
with Oppo R5 which flaunts similar set of
specifications but is a better deal for those
looking for enhanced power back-up thanks to
the VOOC rapid charging technique. However, if
you are looking for an upper mid-range
smartphone with best audio features, Vivo X5 Max
is a good choice.
In terms of specifications, Vivo X5 Max is close to
HTC Desire 820 which features a 5.5″ 720p
display, Snapdragon 615 along with 2GB of RAM
all packed in HTC’s signature uni-body design
available for as low as 23,000 INR which makes
the Vivo X5 Max look rather overpriced.
There are many other value upper budget
smartphones worth considering if you don’t want
to trade-off performance for an ultra slim chassis.
Samsung’s last generation flagship Galaxy S5 is
the best camera phone you can grab for 32,000
INR after a recent price cut.
