Vivo had initially planned to start with the testing of beta version of FunTouch OS 10 based Android 10 upgrade in February. However, the update was delayed due to the COVID-19 Coronavirus outbreak. On Feb. 17, the company had confirmed that it will soon share a detailed upgrade plan. The Chinese firm is back with a revised Android 10 update schedule for the Chinese market.

The public beta of Android 10 OS featuring the latest FunTouch OS 10 which was made official in December 2019 will be first made available to the users of Vivo NEX 3 and Vivo NEX 3 5G on March 14. The first 4,000 users who register for it will be provided with the public beta. Vivo had launched the Vivo X30 and X30 Pro phones in China with FunTouch OS 10 based Android 9 Pie. The revised Android 10 roll out does not mention when the X30 series will get the Android 10 update.

The Vivo X27, X27 (8 GB + 128 GB model), X27 Pro users will be receiving the public beta by early March. The owners of Vivo NEX S, NEX A, NEX-A with in-screen fingerprint sensor and NEX Dual Display will be treated by early April.

The Vivo S5 will get the update by mid-April. The end of April will see the update hitting handsets like Vivo Z5, Z5i, Z5x, S1 and S1 Pro. The update will be coming to other smartphones like Vivo Z3, Z3i and X23 by late June.

The above mentioned devices are the only smartphones from Vivo that will be blessed with FunTouch OS 10 based Android 10. The arrival of Android 10 update for users of Vivo phones in international markets is likely to happen once the Chinese models are treated with the update.

In April, Vivo India had launched the Vivo Y17 mid-range smartphone and in March, the Vivo X27 lineup was made official in China. Fresh information reveals that the company could be now gearing up to launch new X and Y series of smartphones since it has registered X30 and Y19 monikers with World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).

Last year, Vivo had launched in the Vivo X21 smartphone in March and it was succeeded by Vivo X23 in September. The successor of X23 was expected to debut as Vivo X25. However, the company decided to skip it and launch its next X-series phone as Vivo X27. Probably, the company may launch its next X-series smartphone in September.

It remains to be seen whether the company will be skipping X28 and X29 monikers to launch it as Vivo X30. There is no information available on the specifications of the Vivo X30. The Vivo X27 series include X27 and X27 Pro phones. Hence, there is a possibility that the company may announce Vivo X30 Pro alongside the X30 model.

The Vivo Y19 name that has been trademarked with WIPO sounds like a successor for the Vivo Y17 that was unveiled in India recently. In the past few months, Vivo has launched Y-series smartphones like Y12, Y15 and Y17 with similar specs with slight differences in their specs. Hence, the upcoming Y19 phone may borrow many of its specs from the Y17 phone.

The Vivo Y17 comes with a 6.35-inch display with waterdrop notch. It carries support for HD+ resolution of 720 x 1544 pixels.

The Vivo Y17 is one of the cheapest phones in India to feature a triple camera setup. It includes a 13-megapixel primary lens, an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. It is fitted with a front-facing camera of the 20-megapixel. The handset is loaded with FunTouch OS 9 based Android 9 Pie OS. It is packed with a 5,000mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging. It is currently selling with a price tag of Rs. 15,990 (~$228). At launch, it was priced at Rs. 17,990 (~$257). The upcoming Vivo Y19 may land in India with a price tag of Rs. 17,990.

Also, the Vivo 1831A/T phone that was recently approved by TENAA is rumored to launch as Vivo S1. A new Vivo device with model number Vivo V1838A has been spotted on TENAA today. The specs of the V1838A listed on TENAA reveals that it features a weaker chipset and lower triple camera sensors than the Vivo V1829A/T Vivo X27 smartphone.

The Vivo X27 will have a Pro version that will come with a larger display and a selfie-camera with a higher pixel count than the other two non-pro models.

A leaked poster has revealed the Vivo X27 Pro will not only have a large 6.7-inch display but an incredibly large pop-up selfie camera.

Vivo phones with a pop-up selfie camera have the camera sliding out of the left or the right side of the frame and are usually about a centimeter wide. But in the case of the X27 Pro, as shown above, the 32MP selfie camera slides out of the middle of the frame. It is also really wide, nearly four times the size of the regular X27 we saw in leaked live photos.

The Vivo X27 Pro incorporates an LED flash into the slide out mechanism and each side of the setup is flanked by what appears to be clear glass.

The poster also reveals the X27 Pro will come with a different rear camera design. Unlike the regular X27 which has its triple camera setup on the left of the phone, the X27 Pro has its own in the middle. The arrangement is also different. The LED flash which is circle comes first before the sensors. There is also a text at the bottom of the phone that says “Vivo X-SERIES”.

The source of the leak also reveals the Vivo X27 Pro will sell for ¥3998 (~$505) while the non-Pro models will be priced at ¥3198 (~$475) for the 128GB version with a Snapdragon 675 processor and ¥3598 (~$535) for the Snapdragon 710 variant with 256GB of storage.

The Vivo X27 and X27 Pro will launch with Android 9.0 Pie out of the box and have a Sony IMX586 48MP f/1.79 sensor as their primary rear camera.

The Vivo X27 is an upper mid-range flagship scheduled for release on March 19. The device was seen on TENAA’s database a few weeks ago and in the past week, official renders and live photos have been posted online.

A new leak has revealed the Vivo X27 will actually have three variants with the third having the “Pro” suffix. The leak reveals the differentiating features of the three models and when they will be available for purchase.

The first variant is the Vivo X27 itself which has a 6.39-inch display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. It is powered by the Snapdragon 675 AIE processor that is paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It will have triple cameras in a 48MP + 13MP + 5MP configuration and a 16MP selfie camera. This model will also have a 4,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging via a USB type-C port. There is also the Jovi Assistant on board.

The second variant will also sell as the Vivo X27 but some of its key specs are different. First, it swaps the Snapdragon 675 for the Snapdragon 710 AIE processor. It also has 256GB of built-in storage. Its battery capacity is the same but it supports 22.5W fast charging. The rest of the specs are the same as the 128GB version.

The Vivo X27 Pro will come with a bigger 6.7-inch display with a 20.5:9 aspect ratio. It is also powered by the Snapdragon 710 processor and its RAM and storage capacity is 8GB and 256GB respectively. However, its selfie camera is a 32MP sensor and it swaps out the 5MP depth sensor on the rear for a “night vision camera”.

The post Vivo X27 to come in three variants, including a Pro version appeared first on Gizmochina.

It has been confirmed that the Vivo X27 will launch on March 19. The upcoming phone will be an upper mid-range device with some pretty interesting features such as a pop-up selfie camera.

The phone already showed up on TENAA about a week ago baring all its specs, and now Master Lu’s benchmark result has confirmed the processor that powers it.

The benchmark result shows the Vivo X27 (V1829A) will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 710 processor which is clocked at 2208MHz (2.2GHz). The chipset will be paired with 8GB of RAM, and according to the TENAA listing, this is the only RAM variant. Its built-in storage will be 128GB or 256GB. The benchmark result also confirms the 6.39-inch display has a 2340 x 1080 resolution.

The Vivo X27 scored 87,086 points in the CPU test, 55,235 points in the GPU test and 38,920 and 25,390 points in the memory test and storage test respectively. Its total score is 206,631 points which put it in the “high-end” category according to Master Lu’s grading.

Apart from the benchmark result, an official render of the Vivo X27 has also surfaced online that shows the front of the phone, its pop-up selfie camera, and the triple rear cameras on its back.

The 16MP selfie camera slides out from the right side of the phone’s frame. The bezels around the sides are pretty slim and of equal sizes and there is a small slit in the frame for the speaker.

It is also nice to see that the triple rear cameras are flush with the rest of the body. In between the first camera and the second is the LED flash. There is no fingerprint scanner on the back as it is buried beneath the display.

Vivo has confirmed that the Vivo X27 smartphone will be made official on March 19. The handset will be arriving to replace the Vivo X23 smartphone from last year. A few leaked images of the Vivo X27 has appeared on Weibo.

The Vivo X27 leaked images show that its appearance will be quite similar to the Vivo V15 Pro that was recently announced in India. Like the V15 Pro, the upcoming X-series phone from Vivo features a notch-less display. It features a slightly thick chin while the three bezels are quite thin and appear to be of equal size. It features a pop-up selfie shooter.

The back panel of the Vivo X27 seems to be made out of glass. The side edges of the smartphone’s rear shell are curved. The AI triple camera setup featuring an LED flash between the first and second camera lenses is available on the top-left corner of the X27’s launch. There is no fingerprint reader on the backside of the X27. The reason behind it is that it is equipped with an under-display fingerprint scanner.

Through the TENAA listing of the smartphone, it has been found that it will be featuring a 6.39-inch S-AMOLED display that produces full HD+ resolution.

A couple of days back, Vivo released its new gaming flagship, the Vivo IQOO. However, the company seems to be busy preparing another smartphone for launch this month, the Vivo X27. The phone, expected to be the successor of the Vivo X23 model that was launched last year, hasn’t been in many leaks. However, Vivo had a sure way of getting our attention by showcasing the phone at a popular TV Game show in China.

The Vivo X27 was spotted in the TV show called Happy Camp in China yesterday. The show is extremely popular in China and has been airing since 1997. So seeing the phone in the hands of the show’s host was a definite way of teasing it before launch.

One of the highlights of the Vivo X27 is its pop up camera. The camera housing at the back is the same as the Vivo 15 Pro that was launched a few days ago in India. The tease also confirms Topaz Blue gradient color option in China.

A couple of days back, Vivo models, code named V1829T and V1829A were spotted on the TENAA certification. While images were not available, the specs of the models hinted that it was most likely going to be launched as the Vivo X27 in China. The phone came with an octa-core 2.2GHz processor (likely to be the Snapdragon 710) along with a triple camera setup (48MP+13MP+5MP). The front camera is a 16MP shooter. The battery is of 3920mAh, which is bigger than its predecessors. Expect an in display sensor on board, which has become a standard in this lineup.

Vivo is yet to reveal any official details about the X27. But considering how the phone has popped up on a popular TV show, an official launch is very near. According to an earlier leak, Vivo X27 is expected to be released around late March.

Yesterday, Tmall released a list of products that will be available on its online platform in March. The list mentioned the Vivo X27 which means a launch will occur next month. Today, two new phones believed to be the X27 have now been spotted on TENAA’s database, complete with full specs.

Appearing as the Vivo V1829A and Vivo V1829T, the Vivo X27 will have a  6.39-inch AMOLED display with a 1080 x 2340 resolution. It will be powered by an octa-core processor clocked at 2.2GHz. This chipset is likely the Snapdragon 710.

The processor is paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of storage. There is no support for storage expansion which shouldn’t be a surprise anymore since its predecessor – the Vivo X23 also doesn’t have a MicroSD card slot.

The Vivo X27 will come with a triple rear camera setup made up of a 48MP primary sensor, a 13MP secondary sensor, and a 5MP depth sensor.  The selfie camera has also been upgraded to a 16MP sensor. Unfortunately, TENAA hasn’t provided images of the phone, so we don’t know what the design is like.

The phone packs a 3,920mAh battery with support for fast charging. It also has an in-display fingerprint scanner and will run Android 9 Pie out of the box.

TENAA gives its dimensions as 157.66 × 74.26 × 8.95 millimeters and its weight as 188.3 grams. The X27 is thicker than the X23 which has a thickness of 7.5 millimeters, this is probably due to the bigger battery. It will be available in gold but we expect there will be other colors when it launches.
