Vivo T5x Gets A Cosmetic Upgrade

This is purely a color addition, not a spec refresh. But I’ll admit: the smartphone looks quite good in the new Fusion Red colorway. It doesn’t look like a bright shade of red.

Instead, it looks like a slightly muted yet deep shade of the color, which adds a touch of premiumness to the phone. While the frame is dark gray, it is the back that gets the new paint job.

The Vivo T5x 5G continues to run on the same MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Turbo chipset, paired with a 6.76-inch full-HD+ LCD screen offering up to a 120Hz refresh rate. The T5x 5G runs Android 16-based OriginOS 6, with a dual rear camera setup led by a 50-megapixel Sony IMX852 sensor alongside a 2-megapixel bokeh unit, and a 32-megapixel front camera.
