The new Vibe K5 looks pretty much identical to its sibling, the K5 Plus. It has exactly the same style and is available in the same three colours: silver, gold, and grey. We don't mind this at all because we were quite happy with this design the first time we encountered it. It isn't the slickest phone around, but it definitely doesn't look low-end.
The body is all plastic, except for a thin plate of metal in the middle of the rear. This helps the phone feel sturdy, for what it's worth. A shiny chrome ring runs around the front and protects the screen from scratches when the phone is placed face-down on a table. We're a little concerned that the finish will wear off, especially at the corners and edges, but a simple case will help it stay looking fresh.
