Vivo X23 Has Just Been Launched in China with In-Display Fingerprint Scanner and Waterdrop Notch

Vivo has just launched a brand new smartphone offering in the Chinese market. Officially called the X23, this new device has a waterdrop-like notch similar to OPPO F9 and Essential Phone and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

The Vivo X23 comes with a 6.41-inch Super AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution right out of the box. Since being equipped with a notch, the screen offers a taller 19:9 aspect ratio. Inside it is an octa-core Snapdragon 670 processor accompanied by 8GB of RAM and a default internal storage of 128GB. Though not mentioned, I assume this device still supports microSD card for storage expansion.

On the camera side, this phone also sports dual camera setup like many other mid-range devices. On its back it has 12MP + 13MP dual shooter combo with up to f/2.4 aperture while on the front is a 12MP selfie camera.
