After two weeks of non-stop teasing, the vivo X7 and X7 Plus has finally been unveiled by vivo in China. At first glance, the new vivo devices look strikingly similar to the OPPO R9 series as well as the Apple iPhone 6s series, but that's not the first time that a China-base phone has done that and surely won't be the last (whatever works, right?). Anyway, below are the official tech-specs:

As you can see from the specifications above, both devices are quite similar. Both devices are also made out of magnesium aluminium alloy with matte double C technology and 3D cutting and trimming, making them as one of the best-looking smartphones on the market at the moment. Feature-wise, there's nothing much to say from what we already know, such as the Moonlight Flash that gives quality lighting when taking selfies. There is, however, one feature that is quite neat, which is double-clicking the home button allows the user to open up his or her favourite app instantly.

The vivo X7 will start at 2498 Yuan (around RM1498) on 7 July in China, the X7 Plus has yet to get a price tag but should be revealed on 15 July during the company's Shanghai sales meet. Stay tuned for more news at Technave.com.
