Vivo, the Chinese multinational company, already showcased the world’s first under-display fingerprint scanner smartphone at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2018 this time. Not too late, the company left no stone unturned and announced the smartphone but ahead of the scheduled date. To be more precious Vivo launched the X20 Plus UD smartphone on January 24. If the latest report now is anything that one may go by, Vivo X20 Plus UD has been made available for purchase from 10 AM in China via Jingdong Mall as well as Vivo’s official website.
The Vivo X20 Plus UD with a price tag of 3,598 Yuan in China is now available with some attractive freebies like Vivo P50 5,000mAh power bank which is worth 99 Yuan as well as Smart Bracelet which is worth 99 Yuan. To recall, the Vivo‘s X20 Plus UD bears a 6.43-inch AMOLED display and also supports FHD+ resolution with an aspect ratio of 18:9.
Vivo X20 Plus UD’s in-screen fingerprint sensor has been supplied by Synaptics. To recall, it is housed beneath the top glass and the OLED panel. Not only do users get the allowance to use it in order to unlock their phones but also for authenticating payments on AliPay as well as WeChat, reports GizmoChina.
