Vivo V5 Plus is one of those smartphones that in front have a camera with a larger matrix than at the back. Additionally a dual one. The technology adapts to the user. Just what it tells about the user?

Vivo V5 Plus is a smartphone dedicated not only to those who always look for themselves in the picture, but also (and especially) for those who take pictures of themselves first and foremost. The front unit consists of two cameras: the first with a 20 MP matrix (Sony IMX376) and the second - 8 MP matrix. The basic option of this system is the ability to take pictures of yourself with bokeh effect, that is: the effect of depth obtained thanks to the blurred background. The effect is to similar to that achieved in the much more expensive SLRs.

An additional option is the introduction of the effect of changing the depth of field after taking a picture. Cameras perform just every time at least two photos: one with acute and the other with a blurred background. Depending on the user selection the effect can thus be used even when the original image was made without blurring. I wrote "at least" because the possibility of choosing any plan of the image to blur suggests that the camera can take these images even more with a different focus. An intelligent software imposing blur effect is of course not only available for systems with two cameras - even in a series of Xperia Z, but perhaps by multiplying optics the effect is more accurate.

And what does Vivo V5 Plus have in addition to the camera? Snapdragon 625, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of flash. A 5.5-inch display with a resolution of 1080x1920 pixels is protected by Gorilla glass, and a battery (3160 mAh) can be instantly recharged with Quick Charge. A fingerprint sensor protects user data and allows you to unlock the screen in 0.2 seconds. The dedicated system AK4376 is responsible for handling audio and Smart Split 2.0 enables the work with two applications on the display.

Perhaps there comes the time when saying "the main camera" we will be thinking more about the front than the rear. Technology seems to be pretty good in this case, the touchstone of the human condition. - It turns out that we are a civilization of beings invariably gazing upon in ourselves. It’s good if by the way, even if only occasionally, we can see what is important.
