vivo X9 Plus - User Reviews

  • you must download first the google play services in built in browser of this unit and next download the ucbrowser to built in browser beacasue much better to use this browser for downloading and then download the google playstore using ucweb browser search in google for apk installer direct download. and thats it you can download all application you want in your phone hope i can help you with this replay thanks and god bless

  • As said, the sock in the X9 is just fine unless you want serious gaming performance. Probably 98% is translated to English so I don’t understand what the problem is with a few forgotten Chinese characters. It’s not nice but perfectly workable.

  • Nice product but having issues with the language. Is it meant for only chinese people

  • hi . how did you solve your problem in language ?

  • Yas this tha very bast mobile in tha warld.. #vivo_raacks

  • ips lcd 1080p

  • Is that real the problem in vivo x9 plus in language bcoz i will buy it in coming last december.

  • Hi. Can you explain - what do you mean "cannot accept"? I have older phone, X6 Plus - and i was able to install all apps i have always used. BTW, is it really IPS display in X9 Plus? Or AMOLED?

  • Sunil and all other friends here in, This is a serious problem guys, I also just bought it at the end of Sept 2017 and I'm having the same problem and worse enough it can not accept all applications I used to communicate home :( Any one with a good experience can help how to install Google play, whatsapp, Facebook, facebook messenger, and Google Chrome :)

  • I bought Vivo X9 plus from China in my visit to China recent. Even i change the language to English, still Chinese letters and information are apearing with the English. That means it has not change to 100% English. This is a serious problem for me. Please tell me that how to install Funtouch English or Android to this phone

  • Mr. David, I am also searching the user manual for the Vivo X9 Plus. If you find the manual please send it yto me [email protected] (Sunil from Sri Lanka)

  • Super vivo

  • I have been searching for the user guide for this phone but none available so far. Who can help with the user guide? Regards [email protected]

  • I think you missed his point. A phone is more than the Soc used inside. A combination of top notch hardware doesn't guarantee a top notch phone. There are too many examples of that. Vivo's Funtouch of late has become very fluid and stable helping for a good experience on a mid level phone.

  • Be sure that you get to know everything about power saving in the settings. Some apps like Whatsapp need to have permanent power in the background otherwise new messages only come through when you (re)open the app. The phone is a beauty though with very good screen, lots of battery life, very good camera's, quick and fluid.

  • Try Aliexpress, bought it there.

  • This mobile is bast mobile but 1 problem not support memory card..another sarvice is OK..

  • It is a nice phone but I do not know where I can buy it

  • nice phone but hugging full

  • its not about appearance

  • very nice mobile

  • not phone not design not any thing just copy of i phone 7 anyone can make like this phone

  • looks like the iphone 7

  • But 4 times better

  • The SoC dictates a great deal of aspects on a phone, from camera module compatibility, maximum RAM, maximum battery capacity, Sensor support, screen type/resolution support, wireless technology support (HSPA, LTE, Wifi, FM, etc.). As well as manages the processes, renders the graphics, onward...A poorly built SoC or mismanaged one, can bring a feature packed phone to its knees, as a very power inefficient one (Mediatek is well known for that) can be overtaxed, and thoroughly make a large battery seem pointless.

  • A phone is sooo much more than just the Soc.... MSM8976 Pro is a very fine processor that will fulfill all demands. Camera's, sound quality, battery life, build quality and good software are more important. And Vivo excels in that. Shame they focus just on Azia

  • Could buy an iphone 6 at this price point.

  • no its not a good fon, soc/chipset is much poor

  • When device gets bigger they're using weakest SoC!!! The weird thing in these days

  • No NFC!!

  • They better use processor 821 snapdragon in such device

  • No More Gyro

  • Hmm... for selfie lovers.. bt pixel density is quite low... wtever overall impressive...especially for 32 bit/192 khz audio...

  • very good
