The Vivo X50 has an unusual camera setup. The upcoming phone features a pretty large sensor with gimbal-like stabilization that takes up a large portion of the rear camera housing. With this design, the phone should be easily recognizable. A new video ad that further highlights the design along with more details about the phone have been released.

The first second of the video advert shows how thin the phone is. The device is placed beside a slim photography book. In a separate Weibo post, Han Baxio, the product manager of Vivo, said the Vivo X50 measures 7.4mm in thickness and weighs just 170 grams. He adds that the battery capacity (which is unknown) was not reduced and the device doesn’t use plastic for the middle frame.

The battery capacity and the type of material used for the frame play a part in the overall weight of a device. If the Vivo X50 packs a battery capacity not less than 4500mAh and uses a metal frame, then its 7.4mm thickness and 170 grams weight surely deserves praise.

Vivo X50 dimensions

As shown in the video, the rear camera housing does protrude – the black part even sticks out a bit more than the rest of the housing. The LED flash system, which appears to have about four LEDs flanks the camera housing on the right. The Vivo X50 has quad rear cameras but the specifications are currently unknown.

Vivo X50 fake colors

The advert also shows the phone will be available in two colors at launch – blue and peach/pink. Renders of the phone in purple and green have also been posted on the web but Han Baxio said they are fake.

Vivo has announced that it will take the wraps off the X50 on June 1 in China. There currently is no info on a launch outside China.
