Vivo’s X80 series debuted earlier this year and built quite a following, with the Vivo X80 Pro gaining critical acclaim from both users and reviewers. Now, the Vivo X90 series is also around the corner, and it definitely has some big shoes to fill.
The upcoming lineup will include the Vivo X90, X90 Pro, and X90 Pro+ and is due for launch in a few days. However, there’s not much left to the imagination as various leaks and teasers have already revealed most details about the Vivo’s next flagships. And to make it easier for you, we have compiled everything known about the Vivo X90 series in this article. Let’s dive in.
Vivo X90 Series Launch Date
Vivo recently confirmed through a Weibo post that the X90 series will launch in China on November 2022. The smartphones will be unveiled at an event held at 7 PM GMT+8. The company will live-stream the event on popular Chinese video streaming and social media platforms like Weibo.
Vivo X90 Series Design
Design-wise, all three models look quite similar. On the front, the smartphones will feature an OLED displays with curved edges and a centrally positioned punch-hole. The back of the handsets has a circular camera module along with a blue Zeiss logo. All three phones are almost identical except for the camera module, which is smaller on the standard model.
There’s also a fancy strip across the whole panel promising “Xtreme Imagination.” The right side of the trio will have a power button and a volume rocker. The series will come in a special red color, similar to the X Fold+, which will have a leathery finish and look quite premium. The handsets will also be offered in black and blue color options.
Vivo X90 Series Specifications
Vivo’s new series is rumored to pack some cutting-edge specs. The higher-end Vivo X90 Pro+ will have a 6.7-inch 1260p AMOLED panel that will offer a 120 Hz and 300 Hz touch sampling rate.
It will be the only one in the lineup to feature the recently announced Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. The smartphone will draw power from a 4,700 mAh battery that supports 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
The Vivo X90 Pro is expected to come with the same display as the Plus model. It will be equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 9200 chipset and pack a larger 4,800 mAh battery. Now here’s the confusing part: the standard Pro phone could support wired charging at 120 watts and wireless charging at 50 watts.
Moving to the standard Vivo X90, it will sport a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 300Hz touch sampling rate. The screen will produce a 2800×1260 pixel resolution. Just like the pro model, it will also be powered by a Dimensity 9200 chipset paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. The device will be backed by an even larger 4,810mAh battery and support 120W fast charging.
Vivo X90 Series Cameras
The Vivo X90 series is expected to push the envelope in terms of photography. With its camera capabilities, the top-of-the-line Vivo X90 Pro+ will easily give the Galaxy S23 Ultra a run for its money.
The handset will come with a quad camera setup on the back, featuring a 1-inch, 50MP Sony IMX989V primary sensor accompanied by a 64 MP OmniVision OV64A telephoto lens. There’s also a 48 MP Sony IMX598 ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50 MP Sony IMX578 portrait lens. For selfies and video calls, the device has a 32 MP shooter on the front.
Vivo X90 Pro, on the contrary, will feature a triple rear camera setup, consisting of a new 50 MP Sony IMX866 camera sensor, an older 50MP portrait lens, and a 12MP Ultrawide sensor. It will include a 32 MP selfie sensor. The vanilla model’s rear camera module retains the 50MP Sony IMX866 sensor and 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens. However, the portrait lens is substituted with a 12 MP telephoto sensor.
Vivo X90 Series Price
While the official pricing of the upcoming devices has yet to be revealed, we can expect it to be similar to that of the previous models. The lineup is expected to debut in the South Asian market sometime next year. Some models will also debut in the old continent.
