Vivo has officially announced that it will hold its Imaging Strategy Conference, which will likely see the unveiling of the Vivo V2 image signal processor chip on October 24th. The V2 ISP is rumored to be included in the upcoming Vivo X90 lineup of smartphones which are rumored to arrive in December.

It is highly likely that Vivo might officially announce or hint at the launch date of the X90 series at this event. The upcoming lineup is expected to carry three devices – Vivo X90, Vivo X90 Pro, and Vivo X90 Pro plus. These devices will succeed the highly acclaimed Vivo X80 series which is widely praised for its excellent camera performance, partly made possible by the Vivo V1+ ISP chip. After the Chinese launch, the X90 series is also expected to arrive in the global markets to butt heads against flagships like the iPhone 14 series, the Pixel 7 series, the upcoming Xiaomi 13 series, and the Oppo Find X6 series.

Currently, not much is known about the Vivo X90 series, however, it is almost certain that the devices in the lineup will run the latest Snapdragon/ Dimensity flagship chipsets. These will be the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip and the Dimensity 9200 SoC.

The top-of-the-line Vivo X90 Pro Plus is rumored to feature the Dimensity 9200 chipset and a 1-inch camera sensor, in conjunction with an ultra-wide lens, and a 64-megapixel telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom and the V2 ISP chip. Earlier rumors have also stated that we might see a curved AMOLED LTPO display with a Quad HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of up to 120Hz on the X90 Pro Plus. A 5000mAh battery unit with 100W fast charging is also expected to be on board with the device.
