Vivo X60 Pro 5G introduced: Gimbal Stabilization 2.0 and 120Hz display

The Chinese manufacturer Vivo officially presented the new Vivo X60 Pro 5G for Germany today. You can find out what it has to offer and how much it costs in the following lines.

The X60 series, which consists of a regular model, a Pro and a Pro+, has been available in China since the beginning of the year. For now, only the X60 Pro 5G is coming to us, which is slightly different from the Chinese version.

Technical information

A 6,56-inch AMOLED display dominates the front, which is slightly rounded on both sides and is only interrupted by a small punch hole. The panel has a pleasantly sharp resolution of 2.376 x 1.080 pixels and supports a smooth refresh rate of 120 Hertz. At the predecessor it was only 90 Hertz.

The in-house user interface Funtouch OS, based on Android 11, is used as software. Under the hood there is the first difference compared to the Chinese version. While the Exynos 1080 from Samsung is used in China, we have to be satisfied with the Snapdragon 870 from Qualcomm. It is supported by 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. Unfortunately, the latter cannot be expanded via a micro SD card.

Vivo has given the X60 Pro 5G a 4.200 mAh battery that can be charged with up to 33 watts. As with its predecessor, wireless charging is unfortunately not possible. Stereo speakers and IP 68 certification against the ingress of water and dust are also nowhere to be found here.

There are three cameras on the top left of the back. The main sensor is a 48 megapixel sensor with a bright aperture of f/1.48, and there is also a 13 megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera and a portrait lens with 13 megapixels. In addition to technical improvements, such as an optimization of the gimbal system, Vivo has also improved the software. The new X60 Pro offers the possibility of taking portrait photos in the style of the ZEISS Biotar. Here the blurred background has a rotating effect. In addition, the night mode is said to have been significantly improved thanks to the gimbal stabilization 2.0 and the extremely bright aperture. The new smartphone also has the so-called Pixel Shift Ultra HD Imaging Technology, which increases the accuracy of the colors and details. The front camera has a resolution of 32 megapixels.
