Vivo Air

The Vivo Air is the fifth generation of the BLU Vivo series featuring Super AMOLED display technology, featuring remarkable advancements in technology and design, resulting in the thinnest (5.1mm) and lightest (sub 100g) smartphone device available in the Americas. Built out of one solid block of aluminum magnesium alloy using the latest CNC and antenna technologies, then covered with a Corning Gorilla glass 3 shell on both the front and back for improved damage resistance.  The result is a remarkably premium and beautiful device with a lasting first impression and unique feel in hand.

The Vivo Air is powered by a Mediatek MT6592 chipset, which translates into an Octa-Core Cortex-A7 processor at 1.7GHz, Mali-450MP4 GPU and 1GB of RAM resulting in an AnTuTu score of over 30,000. Images come to life with a 4.8-inch Super AMOLED display with 306ppi, resulting in an extremely vivid and bright display, coupled with an 8.0 mega pixel main camera plus 5 mega pixel front facing camera, while still packing a 2100mAh battery inside its revolutionary thin design, to keep going an entire day without needing to charge.
