A good way to save some money on research and development is to copy the design of other phones.

                  Nope. Doesn't at all look the the S6 edge nor the 6P from behind. They are certainly not copying.

                      W8 for iPhone 7

                        With all the waves of hate flowing through, I stand aside. Xplay5 may be a copycat of Samsung & Apple but it visually looks stunning. Frankly I less care from whom it was copied as long as it looks good. That said the Elite version will attract music connoisseurs, audiophiles due to its esoteric HiFi 3.0 architecture for audio sound reproduction through headphones. This architecture is unique as of now. From an objective point of view, the Xpaly5 Elite model stacks the best audio DACs & op-amps in business while using the most expensive audio setup ever conceived for a smart phone. Period.

                        HiFi 3.0 implementation in Xplay5 Elite ensures a PAIR (not one) of high-end stereo ESS SABRE ES9028 DACs followed by a PAIR (not one) of Texas Instruments OPA1612 dual op-amps is differential configuration. Each ES9028 being a stereo DAC and able to handle two audio channels are forced to act a mono DAC handling only one channel in HiFi 3.0 architecture for even better performance. Result is 3dB increase in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from 129dB to a magnanimous 132dB in a smart phone!!! Then the OPA1612's that falls next in the audio chain are again used in expensive differential configuration. These are acting as I/V converters i.e. converting the current output of DACs to voltage to drive our headphones. This is serious stuff applicable to 5% of the smart phone buyers who uses expensive audiophile grade headphones to listen to music. Finally another OPA1612 in single-ended configuration completes the chain by acting as a sole headphone amplifier. Promising to say the least, coz in paper at least it beats my Vivo X5Max"s HiFi 2.0 architecture fair and square.

                        The other things that tick's in my check list are a large 3600 mAh battery, Gorilla Glass 4 protection & 128GB internal memory. You need space to store uncompressed audio FLAC files 10x the size of 320 kbps MP3's!!!

                        The final piece of the puzzle is Xplay5 Elite's global availability (at least in India where Vivo have their presence). I am not interested in plain Xplay5 which follows HiFi 1.0 architecture of X5Pro. The other dampening factor will be the exuberant and unjustified price tag set by this small Chinese manufacturer who does NOT even have the ability to provide android updates in the future for a US $655 flagship smartphone. My humble suggestion for the rest 95% of the smart phone users who less care about audio quality too steer clear from this handset. For them with this much cash to spend it will be a much safer bet to gun for Samsung or LG flagships as they will be better in every other department bar audio.
