Alleged Vivo V9 with iPhone X looks shown off in live images

Vivo is scheduled to roll out the red carpet for the Vivo V9 in India on March 27.

We already know what to expect from the Vivo V7 sequel in terms of outward appearance. However, these alleged pictures of a unit in the wild, courtesy of a Malaysian tech website, provide us with a more detailed look at the V9’s front, backing, and sides.

The real-world images confirm the details we’ve seen in Vivo’s promo materials — the Apple iPhone X-like notch and vertically aligned rear cameras, to name but two. They also shed light on some new information, including the presence of a headphone jack at the bottom edge of the device, next to a standard microUSB charging port.

The Vivo V9 could also get separate slots for two SIM cards and an SD card. Moving to the front, the phone might have a 24-megapixel camera housed in the notch, where the earpiece speaker and proximity sensor share a limited space.

In terms of internal specifications, it’s still unclear just what the V9 will offer, but it’s only fair to expect that this upgrade packs a faster processor to go with a design more fitting of 2018.

We’re told that the Vivo V9 will launch in the Philippines sometime in April 2018, so the waiting won’t be so bad.
