Whether you are a millenial or (trying to qualify as one) you just have to be on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram account.
Either by choice or necessity, social media has become part of our daily lives whether your purpose is to just chronicle your daily activities or let everyone know whats keeping you busy. Posting and sharing pictures with your new tops, makeups, or even plain exercising in the gym has become the new norm.

If you don’t take a selfie during your vacation, eat out at a restaurant with your friends, celebrating a special day, it is almost as if it never happened. And for that you need a phone that can perfectly capture the moment.
Vivo Philippines finally launched the Vivo V5 Plus in a star-studded event last January 21 at the SM Mall of Asia Atrium.
The perfect selfie phone is the newest flagship model of Vivo, the top five global smartphone premium brand1, ideal for today’s selfie age, when millennials and even adults enjoy sharing beautifully-captured self-shots with the world of social media.

The Vivo V5 Plus boasts an advanced selfie technology that features a ‘bokeh’ effect—a background-blurring photography filter. This is complemented by Vivo’s enhanced face beauty algorithm that allows users to take radiant selfies with no need for editing or correction, and ‘selfie soft light’ which makes selfie-taking possible even in poor lighting conditions.
As for its rear camera, Vivo V5 Plus features an impressive 1/2.8-inch 16-megapixel sensor for ultra-clear and high-quality photos.
Sound, speed and style
Aside from its stunning camera features, the Vivo V5 Plus boasts a superior sound system, using the same Hi-Fi system of Vivo’s recent flagship models, and perfected in over two years—the AK4376.
