vivo X60 and X60 Pro: everything you need to know

Design and display

From the first images collected on the subject, we had news of the design and the di vivo X60 e X60 Pro, which is confirmed curved in the version Pro and becomes curved in the standard version. For the design, the rear is not at all unlike that of the models in the line up of X50, with side bumper chamber and a very thin frame with a thickness of just 7.36 mm. For the body we have an interesting treatment of iridescent satin finish which makes a very original very good effect.

If on the front we do not see big news in the mobile landscape, as regards the back, vivo propose his again Gimbal Camera, with a rectangular module characterized by a main sensor that dominates the square.

Moving on to the technical side, both models have a diagonal of 6.56" AMOLED with resolution Full HD +. The refresh rate leads to 120 Hz, while for touch sampling we have a rate a 240 Hz for both. Compared to the side punch-hole selfie camera, on the new ones vivo X60 there is a central punch-hole. A solution of great quality therefore for both smartphones, which really have no sacrifices in any sense, compared to the premises and the previous range.

Hardware and software

Initially it was rumored that vivo X60 fitted with the latest Qualcomm solutions but in reality vivo itself confirmed the implementation of the Samsung platform through an official teaser Exynos 1080, solution with production process FinFET EUV a 5 nm and equipped with a processor Cortex-A78 up to 2.8 GHz, with technical improvements equal to + 25% and scores Antutu around 700.000 points.

Flash memory is with technology UFS 3.1 for both and both make use of a powerful technology of RAM memory merger which allows you to get performance as if they had 3 GB di RAM more than the default configuration.

Moving on to the battery, the choice of is very particular vivo to insert 4300 mAh to X60 e 4200 mAh to X60 Pro, but we can understand how probably the latter actually has an improved hardware and software optimization compared to its younger brother. They both support the quick charging da 33 W.

Another interesting aspect of the next top models of vivo it's about software, as they are the first smartphones with origin OS native. We are not dealing with an operating system scratch, but a refresh of the current proprietary Funtouch OS UI (but with notable improvements). We talked about all its news in this dedicated article. But the curiosity is all about the photographic sector: there will be some other exclusive feature after the peculiar one Gimbal Camera? It would seem so, but for all the details keep reading up to the "Camera" section.

It is no coincidence that the insiders shared the image you see above, underlining its nature as a concept but underlining that this could be close to the final design (albeit with some differences).

According to the well-known Chinese leaker, in fact, the launch of vivo X60 Pro +, in the wake of the current generation. And just like for the X50 family, it will be a respectable top model, driven by the Snapdragon 888 and equipped with increased fast charging. The insider does not refer to it but we put the flea in the ear: whether it is the Super FlashCharge from 120 (or maybe that a 44)?
