Vivo introduced X7 and X7 Plus smartphones with 16-megapixel front-facing camera with f/2.0 aperture along with soft LED flash back in June. Now the company is all set to introduce the successors, X9 and X9 Plus smartphones later this month. Vivo has confirmed that these smartphones will feature 20-megapixel and 8-megapixel, dual front-facing cameras.

Later LG introduced the V10 with dual 5-megapixel front-facing cameras that has two separate lenses to capture standard 80-degree selfies or wide-angle 120 degree selfies.
