However, the full configuration of both phones have been leaked online, confirming previous leaks and revealing new details.
Vivo X9
The Vivo X9 will have a 5.5” Full HD display, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, and an unspecified snapdragon processor. The front facing cameras are a combination of a 20MP sensor and an 8MP sensor with soft light, and there is a 16MP shooter on the rear.

The Vivo X9 Plus is not only bigger with a larger 5.88-inch FHD screen, but also sports a 6GB RAM, and a larger 4000mAh battery. Storage is the same at 64GB and the processor is Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 653. It has the same camera setup as the X9 but uses dual HiFi audio chips (ES9018+ES9603).
