Smartphone manufacturers are planning ways to increase the whole display proportions on smartphones and one of them will be reducing the notch sizes for the front selfie cameras and even turn it into an under-screen camera. A few days ago, vivo’s latest patent has been leaked with a detachable camera.

Based on a statement by gizchina, it seems that future vivo smartphones could come equipped with image sensors that were developed by vivo themselves. While not much is known in regards to the exact smartphones that will come with the aforementioned image sensor, it does give us a better idea of what to expect from vivo in the future.

If you have already balik kampung and suddenly find yourself in dire need of a new vivo smartphone, worry not as vivo has opened two brand new vivo Concept Stores in Queensbay Mall, Penang and Aman Central, Alor Setar. To celebrate the occasion, vivo is giving a 50% discount on smartphone accessories.

Instead of just balik kampung this Raya, why not go on holiday? From the 25th of May to the 9th of June, any customer who purchases a vivo smartphone is eligible to be in the running to win a 6 day and 5 night holiday to one of these countries of their choosing which are Japan, China, Korea, Turkey, India, Mecca, Croatia, Greece, Egypt, France, Germany, Australia or Italy.

iQOO, vivo’s gaming sub-brand is said to come out with premium and futuristic phone designs. Futuristic may be the keyword here as leaked images of a foldable phone has surfaced on the internet, said to belong to the sub-brand.

A leaked video in Weibo has shown a jet-black Vivo smartphone with a typical clock and a fingerprint icon embedded in the screen. We could be seeing the world’s first embedded, screen-integrated fingerprint scanner.
