Vivo is currently hyping its upcoming late-2021 flagship smartphones with some tantalizing details ahead of their launch. It seems the latest of these is the inclusion of an E5 display, the latest generation of Samsung OLED displays for mobile devices. It is slated to have a QHD display in at least 1 X70 variant.

"E5" is a potentially important buzzword that might be seen more and more often as leaks and rumors concerning next-gen phones such as the Xiaomi 12 and Samsung Galaxy S22 series build up over the next few months. It refers to a successor to the E4 panel-type seen in current flagships such as the Mi 11 Ultra and OPPO Find X3 Pro.

E5 AMOLED is rated for multiple advantages over E4, such as a 25% boost to power-efficiency - as iQOO would be more than happy to confirm. The Vivo sub-brand's own new flagship, the 8 Pro, is the world's first Android phone to boast the upgrade; however, its owner has now strongly hinted that the X70 series will soon catch up in this regard.

The OEM has just dropped a fresh trailer for its upcoming, own-brand premium smartphones that strongly hints at a 2K E5 display. On the other hand, the new post fails to mention which X70 variant or variants (currently thought to be up to 4 in number) will get this potential upgrade.

It is most likely destined for the X70 Pro+ model, which may be unveiled with a 6.78-inch punch-hole display and upgraded, Zeiss-enhanced rear cameras. Then again, we may have to wait until September 9, 2021 to find out for sure.
