Vivo has sent out invites to media outlets for the launch of a new smartphone series that could be unveiled tomorrow.
The company recently teased the launch of a new sub-brand called iQOO and it also seems to be expanding its main portfolio with a new U series smartphone. According to Sina Tech, the alleged U1 smartphone will feature a waterdrop notch display with a diagonal size of more than six inches. The outline of the device can be seen in the teaser below.
The expected hardware specifications of the smartphone were posted on Twitter by Venkatesh Babu from MySmartPrice. These include a 6.2-inch LCD with a waterdrop notch, a Snapdragon 439 processor clocked up to 1.9 GHz, an Adreno 505 GPU, dual rear cameras with 13-megapixel and 2-megapixel sensors, an 8-megapixel front camera and a 4030 mAh battery.
