Chinese smartphone maker vivo debuted the vivo X60 series in late December 2020 in China. All the three handsets in the lineup, namely vivo X60, vivo X60 Pro, and vivo X60 Pro+ are reported to launch in India in the coming days. Ahead of their release, the vanilla and the Pro models have been now certified by BIS, EEC, TKDN, and Indonesia Telecom.

First and foremost, the standard vivo X60 with model number V2045 has been spotted by 91Mobiles on two certification bureaus, namely BIS and Indonesia Telecom. The certifications somewhat confirm this handset to launch in India and Indonesia respectively.

The same publication has also spotted the vivo X60 Pro with model number V2046 on EEC, TKDN, Indonesia Telecom, and BIS. Hence, we can expect this smartphone to release in Europe, Indonesia, and India respectively.

Since these phones are already official and are being sold in China for quite a while, we know everything about them. The vivo X60 and vivo X60 Pro are identical in terms of specs with some minor differences.

They come with a 6.56-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED display, Exynos 1080 SoC, OriginOS based on Android 11, 32MP selfie camera, and 33W fast charging. But their rear camera setup and battery capacity are different.

The vivo X60 has a 48MP (wide) + 13MP (2x telephoto) + 13MP (ultra-wide) triple camera setup, while the vivo X60 Pro sports an additional 8MP 5x periscope unit. Lastly, the former has a 4,300mAh battery and the latter is backed by a slightly smaller 4,200mAh cell.

Earlier this week, Qualcomm introduced the Snapdragon 870 chipset for flagship devices. The SoC is slotted between the Snapdragon 888 and the older Snapdragon 865 SoC. The SD870 also offers faster performance than the Snapdragon 865+, which is an overclocked version of the SD865 chip. While Motorola Edge S debuting on Jan. 26 will break cover as the world’s first SD870 powered handset, companies like Xiaomi, OPPO, Vivo, and OnePlus are also expected to announce SD870 powered smartphones. Last week, a Vivo phone with a V2045 model number was spotted at the Geekbench benchmarking platform with the new chip. The same device has now received approval from the Bluetooth SIG authority.

The Bluetooth SIG authority has approved two Vivo phones such as V2045 and V2047 (via). The latter has already gone official as the Vivo X60 Pro in China. The Bluetooth SIG listing could be a hint that its global launch is drawing near.

Coming to the mysterious V2045 phone, the Bluetooth SIG listing only confirms support for Bluetooth 5.1. It has no information on its other specifications. At present, it is unclear whether the V2045 will be arriving in the market with Vivo or iQOO branding.

Editor’s Pick: Vivo X60 Pro+ launched with Snapdragon 888 and two main rear cameras 

The Geekbench appearance suggests that the Chinese brand could be internally testing the performance of the Vivo V2045 before making it official. Apart from hinting at the presence of the Snapdragon 870 chip, the listing also revealed that it has 12 GB of RAM and Android 11 OS. However, the other specs of the Vivo V2045 are under the wraps.

Phones that appear at the Bluetooth SIG’s database are known to go official within a month. Hence, the Vivo V2045 could be heading for a Q1 launch.
