The cheaper one will only benefit of 2 GB RAM and 16 GB of storage. The device will run the latest Android OS, 4.4 KitKat. Both versions will feature a 5.2 inch 1,080 display. Official figures regarding its price were not revealed but sources close to Vivo claim the top-end device will go for 550 dollars, while the slower one will set any customer back around 475 dollars.

However, the Xshot will only be available in China for now as no word on international availability has been given yet.
