Photography Redefined Through Global Partnership with ZEISS

We have collaborated with ZEISS to bring unparalleled sharpness, clarity and image quality to vivo smartphones.”

Key to the X60 series’ top-notch photography capabilities lies in its groundbreaking vivo ZEISS co-engineered imaging system, resulting in uncompromisable and powerful performance. The X60 Pro model has three rear cameras (48MP + 13MP + 13MP), as well as a 32MP front camera. The ZEISS logo has been emblazoned on the lens, while the ZEISS Vario-Tessar trademark is engraved beneath the cameras, fitting for the professional photography flagship device that is sure to turn heads.

Additionally, Extreme Night Vision 2.0 helps users to recreate the million shades of night with a single tap, capturing the impressive expanse of the night through vivo’s innovative AI noise reduction algorithm.

The X60 series is home to a diverse set of multi-modal photography and videography features that are hallmarks of vivo technology.

Optimal Power and Flagship Performance

The vivo X60 series harnesses power, connectivity and speed that can satisfy contemporary high-end smartphone users, who demand exceptional device performance. The vivo X60 and X60 Pro are fitted out with the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 870 5G Mobile Platform to collectively beat their predecessors on all fronts with superior and smoother daily user experiences.

Ultra-Thin Design with Premium Aesthetics

Notwithstanding the multitude of powerful features and cutting-edge capabilities of the X60 series, vivo has managed to incapsulate all of this technology into slim constructs and lightweight shells. The X60 is complete with a stunning 6.56-inch flexible Ultra O Screen containing a 3.96 mm front camera punch hole centered at the top with ultra-narrow bezels. The Black colorway weighs a mere 176 grams with an ultra-thin 7.36 mm body. Exuding elegant 3D curvature with futuristic aesthetics, the X60 series has carried on the elegance of the X50 with super slender curves and a sleek silhouette. The contours are more captivating than ever and adorned with a choker – a beautiful band that runs along the top edge to complete a picture of grace with sophisticated touch and feel.

The rear cameras are encased within the vivo X60 series’ New Dual-Tone Step, an ingenious layered design that refrains from an otherwise bulky look. Fashioned in thin cascading panels that rise in subtle steps, the Dual-Tone Step integrates all of the professional-grade imaging technologies and photography features co-engineered with ZEISS.

The color palette of the X60 Pro and X60 are inspired by summer blooms, and are available in Blue or Black. With Blue, users can experience the visual radiance and feel the eternal hope of a sunrise, comprising soft blue and purple hues that peek through the morning mist. Black is a powerful colorway that envelopes consumers in the tranquil summer night sky, allowing them to feel the fervor and passion hidden within – the energy of life.
