Vivo T5 5G Design
The Vivo T5 5G is also expected to introduce a major design change compared with the Vivo T4, which I reviewed last year. Vivo appears to be moving towards a new rear design featuring a more horizontally oriented camera module, giving the smartphone a look that is reminiscent of the Google Pixel 11 series.
However, Vivo has not officially confirmed that the T5 5G’s design is inspired by Google’s Pixel lineup. Therefore, the Pixel comparison should be considered a visual observation rather than an officially confirmed design inspiration.
Nevertheless, the new camera treatment could make the Vivo T5 5G look significantly different from its predecessor and give the T-series a fresher design identity.

The Vivo T5 5G looks like a major upgrade over the T4, combining a powerful chipset, high-refresh-rate curved AMOLED display and an unusually large battery. Its new Pixel-like design could also make it one of the more distinctive phones in the segment.
