Slay with the biggest Infinity-O Display!

One of the key highlights of S5 is its 6.6-inch HD+ Infinity-O Display, which makes it the biggest display for a smartphone under 70,000 nairas in the Nigerian market. The Infinity-O Display adopts a slimmer, bezel-less design, which allows S5 to achieve a 90.5% screen-to-body ratio. With a 20:9 screen aspect ratio which follows the current cinema screen trends, S5 will provide users with a brilliant viewing experience. Immerse yourself in video streaming, gaming and image capturing!

Seek brilliant selfies with 32MP In-display AI front camera!

S5 sports a 32MP In-display AI selfie camera with 1.6 μm larger pixels (after 4-in-1), F2.0 aperture and 4-in-1 super pixel technology. When users are taking photos, the In-display AI front camera automatically implements a 4-in-1 effect based on the ISO value, at which point the size of a single-pixel reaches 1.6 μm, enabling consumers to capture sharp, vivid selfies, especially in low-light and backlight environments. HDR+ is the new technology on S5. It’s the combination of Face recognition, intelligent scene recognition and AI HDR technology, which enable users to capture impressive and artistic portraits, S5 is no doubt a backlit portrait master. What’s more, S5’s front camera supports upgraded 3D Face Beauty function and provides four exclusive options to let consumers customize their beauty style.

With the macro lens, users will be able to come closer to objects they want to capture and show vivid details. In addition, with the ultra-wide-angle lens and macro lens, users can create wide-angle and macro videos in video capturing mode, which is a great improvement in comparison with the last generation.
