27 June 2016
A Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ with no home button? No, it's the vivo Xplay5 Elite, but we'll understand if you needed a double-take.

Most typical all China smartphone brands - copying Samsung to get down Samsung. Sucks!

        It costs more than s7 edge lol

          Where's the night shots?
          How bad is this camera in night time?

They share hardware components between themselves and often come-out with near identical clones. Take the example of Oppo F1 Plus and to be released Vivo X7. :)

            Vivo is for HiFi music, Oppo is for camera lovers while OnePlus is for those who loves a well balanced handset at a reasonable price. Of these three I vote Vivo as the most innovative brand.

                No IR blaster also!! it would be nice to have a IR blaster when you are shelling out huge amount to buy a mobile

                  Looks like a cheap knock off of s6 edge
                  And they dare to make this more expensive than the S6 edge -_-

                        The problem is that its too expensive. No point using an edged screen and everything if it means its going to be the same price as other flagships. Totally defeats the purpose and limits the target market severely.

                          What's the point in having three amplifiers if the headphone audio isn't loud ?

                          Waste...

                          Someone disassemble and check if there are three amplifiers or they are just bluffing...

                                  Now how about reviewing ZTE Axon 7 & ZUK PRO2.

                                    Some use big pixels, some white, some new sensors, therefore they can use f2.0 . In this case its like going back 2-3years. Really cold stills.
