After weeks of leaks, the Vivo V27 and V27 Pro smartphones have gone official in India. Like the V25 and V25 Pro models from last year, the new models have great photography features and a cool rear design that changes colors.
The Vivo V27 Pro is nothing but a rebranded version of the Vivo S16 Pro, which has been exclusively available in China since December 2022. The V27, on the other hand, is a new phone that comes with a completely new Dimensity 7200 SoC.
Vivo V27, V27 Pro specifications and features
The Vivo V27 Pro measures 164.1 x 74.8 x 7.4mm and weighs 182 grams. It features a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with curved edges and a centrally positioned punch-hole. The screen supports an FHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, a 20:9 aspect ratio, 10-bit colors, and an under-display fingerprint sensor.
Positioned on the front is a 50-megapixel selfie camera with support for autofocus and a dual-LED flash. The rear-facing camera island has a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766V primary camera with OIS support, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, a 2-megapixel macro camera, and a ring flash that has three LEDs. The phone ships with the Android 13 OS, which is overlaid with FunTouch OS 13.
The Dimensity 8200 chipset is at the helm of the V27 Pro. It offers 8GB / 12GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 128GB / 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. To keep the lights on, the V27 Pro has a 4,600mAh battery with 66W rapid charging support.
The Vivo V27 and V27 Pro have identical specifications, and they mainly differ in the chipset department. While the V27 Pro gets the D8200, the V27 has arrived with the Dimensity 7200v. The technical details of the new chipset are not known yet.
