Vivo has launched today two camera-centric smartphones in India – vivo X90 and vivo X90 Pro. Both the phones are powered by Dual Flagship Chip- MediaTek Octa-Core Dimensity 9200 chipset + Pro Imaging Chip V2. Both the phones have have 6.78-inch Ultra Vision Eye Protection Screen. The 3D curved screen features a larger viewing area, 1.07 billion colors, 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut HDR10+ support, and a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. The vivo X90 houses a 4810 mAh battery and the vivo X90 Pro comes with a 4870 mAh battery with 120W fast charging and 50W Wireless FlashCharge. The X90 Series offers two charging modes, and the Rapid mode in both X90 and X90 Pro can charge the smartphones to 50% in about 8 minutes and 100% in 27 minutes. These phones come with 8GB (available only on X90 only) / 12GB LPDDR5X RAM with 256GB (UFS 4.0) storage.
On the imaging front, the X90 is armed with 50MP primary camera with Sony IMX866 sensor, LED flash, OIS and is supported by 12MP ultra-wide camera with f/2.0 aperture and 12MP 50mm 2X portrait camera. The main camera brings spectrum computation technology introduced by vivo & Sony jointly that makes image data received by the sensor look similar to what the naked eye sees, thereby delivering more authentic colors. Compared to the previous generation, it now has a 20% improvement in noise reduction and a 15% improvement in color reproduction to ensure color consistency.
The X90 Pro is equipped with ZEISS 1-inch 50MP main camera with IMX989 sensor, OIS, LED flash, OIS and is supported by 12MP ultra-wide camera with Sony IMX663 sensor and 50MP 50mm IMX758 2X portrait camera. The X90 Pro also comes with new Handheld Astro mode, eliminating the need for a tripod to capture the starry sky full of stars with the landscape. Along with this, smartphones have the capabilities to capture motion pictures in both day and night conditions. The Pro Sports and Night sports mode has a Zero Shutter Lag Motion Snapshot feature that combines the high-speed shutter and motion detection algorithm, which can instantly freeze the frame, making subjects look clear without any blur in motion scenarios.
The X90 series features the updated ZEISS Natural Color 2.0 which has improved color cast accuracy, and saturation adjustment, making the pictures look more real and natural. ZEISS Natural Color 2.0 is assisted by AI Perception Engine 2.0 which automatically adjusts live exposure and white balance to capture images that are as close to what the human eye can see.
For extreme clarity and imaging experience, the number of lenses on the X90 Pro has been increased to 8 (7P + 1G) with ZEISS T Coating on 7 lens pieces compared to 2 in the previous generation. ZEISS T Coating in 7 lenses reduces light reflection between the lenses, thereby eliminating ghosting, & producing cleaner images with less glare.
In addition, the X90 series brings ZEISS Landscape and Architecture Mode. It comes with the Miniature Effect feature and Automatic Perspective Correction (APC) that gives a new creative approach to photography. The Miniature Effect feature is realized in Tilt-shift and introduces algorithm blur during imaging to turn the real world into a miniature landscape. Automatic Perspective Correction enables consumers to see tall building perspective correction in preview, resulting in horizontally and vertically aligned images in a single click.
Both the phones run Android 13 with Funtouch OS 13 on top and have in-display fingerprint sensor. Both the phones offer various connectivity options of USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 1, 5G SA/ NSA, Dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 6 802.11 ax (2.4GHz + 5GHz), Bluetooth 5.3 and GPS (L1+L5 Dual Band) + GLONASS.
