Vivo Philippines has officially launched the Vivo V9 in the country featuring a notched screen similar to the iPhone X.
While others may not like it, the design makes the screen occupy almost the entire front panel of the smartphone. Add to that its cameras with Artificial Intelligence features making Vivo claim that it has the “Perfect Shot, Perfect View”.

The Vivo V9 has a 6.3-inch FHD+ display with a 19:9 aspect ratio, 16 + 5 Megapixel dual rear cameras and a 24 Megapixel front camera.
