In June, vivo launched vivo X50 Pro+ (Plus) as its flagship smartphone of 2020. Ahead of its sale in July, the company teased a limited edition in collaboration with fashion designer Alexander Wang. Now, after two months, the company announces this product officially.

Earlier in March, vivo launched “vivo X30 Pro alexanderwang Limited Edition”. So this is the second handset from the company in association with the American fashion designer.

The device is officially marketed as “vivo X50 Pro+ alexanderwang Limited Edition”. It comes in a single 12GB + 2565GB storage configuration priced at 5,998 yuan ($877). It is currently up for pre-order in China. It is scheduled to go on sale on September 17 at 12 AM. According to the company, only 1,000 units will be up for grabs.

Apart from the black-gray rear glass panel with the trademark of Alexander Wang in gradient and a dedicated theme, the limited edition is identical to the regular X50 Pro+ (Plus) in all ways possible.

Since vivo did not launch X50 Pro+ in international markets, we don’t think the limited edition will be made available in global markets. Hence, all those 1,000 units could be limited to China even though the company mentions “worldwide” in a Weibo post.

Vivo launched X50 Pro Plus as its new flagship smartphone in June. The handset will go on sale starting July 11 in China. Ahead of it, the brand teases an Alexander Wang Limited Edition on Weibo.

The Chinese smartphone maker Vivo introduced X50 series consisting of X50, X50 Pro, and X50 Pro Plus last month. The first two models are expected to launch in global markets sometime later this month.

That said, the company now teases X50 Pro Alexander Wang Limited Edition in collaboration with the American designer. Unfortunately, the brand did not reveal the design of this variant.

This is not the first time Vivo is partnering with the said designer. Just a few months back in March, the brand launched X30 Pro in association with him.

That variant has similar specifications as the regular X30 Pro but features a distinct mirror finish. As for X50 Pro Plus, we can expect the limited edition to feature artificial leather finish like the Camel color variant but with some design tweaks.

Though it is expected to be no different than the regular version, there are certain customers who would like to buy it. In fact, Vivo X series is targeted at fashion-loving customers and it makes sense for the company to cooperate with a celebrity designer to launch a special variant.
