Vivo V23 and V23 Pro Comes In Chameleon Design
Vivo presented the V23 and V23 Pro at CES 2022. The new mid-range smartphones are primarily characterized by their changeable color and their dual selfie camera. In this post, we introduce the Vivo V23 and V23 Pro. Since Vivo has been present in Europe, it has repeatedly attracted attention with innovative smartphones such as the X51 with its gimbal camera or, most recently, with the V21 5G, which has a remarkable selfie camera. At the beginning of the year, the Chinese brand used CES to reveal the V23 and V23 Pro. The successors to the V20 and V21 come onto the market with two special features, which concern the design and the selfie camera.
Vivo V23 and V23 Pro: smartphones that change color!
Vivo apparently took inspiration from Apple when designing the V23. At least the smartphone has flat edges like the iPhone 13. The V23 Pro, on the other hand, has a rounded design. However, the main difference between the smartphones is their color. Because in the color Sunshine Gold, the V23 and V23 Pro can change their color from gold to teal when exposed to the sun. This is possible thanks to a special coating called “Fluorite AG”, which enables smartphones to change their color tone after a certain period of time. The two cell phones are alternatively available in the color Stardust Black. The Vivo V23 and V23 Pro also have a conspicuous notch that houses two selfie cameras. It’s best to take a look at the pictures:
