Vivo X23 is official, comes with Halo FullView display


Vivo X23 Officially Released

Earlier today we saw the release of the Vivo X23, the latest from the Vivo stable. We’ve got a 6.41-inch Super AMOLED display with a 1080 x 2340 resolution and 19.5:9 aspect ratio. There’s a tiny notch up top, but it’s not very intrusive and gives the device a 91% screen to body ratio. Vivo calls this the Halo FullView display.

It runs the Snapdragon 670 processor with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Cameras are quite impressive with a 12MP + 13MP dual rear camera setup and a 12MP front facing shooter. The secondary camera has a 125° wide-angle lens, allowing it to capture 3D depth of field information. There’s even IR face unlock here.
