Recently, we saw reports that Vivo is planning to launch the latest Vivo X60 series in India sometime in end of March/beginning of April 2021. Today, 91Mobiles is back with another report saying that the yesteryear Vivo X50 Pro+ will accompany the X60 series during the launch.

Citing its sources, the report says that Vivo X50 Pro+ will launch alongside the Vivo X60 and Vivo X60 Pro in India. If we recall, this device launched in China way back on June 1, 2020. Vivo had unveiled it as a flagship smartphone powered by Snapdragon 865 chipset while the X50 and X50 Pro had mid-range Snapdragon 765G.

Anyway, the report also shows few images of the device that’s coming to India. If you look at the images, we can spot the device(V2011) running on Snapdragon 865 with 12GB RAM, 256GB storage. The screenshot also shows that the firmware on it is based on Android 10 but this could just be an old representative unit.

Also, the rear of the image shows that the company is bringing the Plain Leather Edition that is in Brown Color(Camel) to India. In addition to this, the Vivo X50 Pro+ in China also comes in another Gravitation Blue color variant.

As for Price, the report says that Vivo X50 Pro+ could launch around ₹40,000($550) in India. To recall, the 256GB variant launched in China for 5,498 yuan($851) while the 128GB debuted for 4,998 yuan($773).

Lastly, as the X50 Pro+ is debuting here, the possibility of the recently launched Vivo X60 Pro+ coming to India is very bleak. Either way, let’s wait for official news to know when the company plans to bring the devices to India.

Vivo today held a press conference in China where the Vivo X50 series was unveiled. The new X50 series is made up of the Vivo X50, X50 Pro andX50 Pro+, all 5G phones. What makes the trio stand out is that it is Vivo’s thinnest 5G phone.

The Vivo X50 and X50 Pro both come with a 6.56-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2376 x 1080p. The screen has support for 90Hz refresh rate and equally has an under-screen fingerprint sensor embedded underneath. The X50 weighs only 173 grams and has a thickness of 7.49mm. On the other hand, the X50 Pro weighs 181.5 grams and is 8.04mm thick. Notably, most 5G phones weigh around 200g.

Although the two phones have similar screen sizes, the X50 Pro uses an aesthetic curved screen design and is also the first curved phone in the X series.

In terms of hardware, both the X50 and X50 Pro pack a Snapdragon 765G processor with 8GB LPDDR4X memory. While the X50 uses UFS 2.0 flash memory, X50 Pro is UFS 2.1 flash memory. Both models also have different battery capacities and fast charge. The X50 crams a 4200mAh battery, while the X50 Pro is powered by a 4315mAh battery, and both support 33W flash charging.

On the camera aspect, Vivo X50 and X50 Pro both packs a 32MP front-facing camera that supports night view, portrait, photo, video, panorama, dynamic photo, slow motion, short video, AR cute shoot and others. At the rear side, there is a quad-camera setup on both models but the X50 Pro setup includes a 48MP Sony IMX598 main camera + 13MO portrait + 8MP wide-angle + 5MP macro lens. The main camera supports four-axis OIS, closed-loop motor, and 20x digital zoom. There is also support for up to 60x digital zoom.

One spectacular feature of the X50 Pro camera is the presence of a gimbal camera system modelled after a full-sized professional gimbal. The gimbal moves the camera module in the direction opposite to that of the shake, increasing the stability of the main camera. The gimbal system widens the rotation angle and the anti-shake area. The camera UI is also tweaked to reflect the movement of the gimbal and show when the sensor is stable. Te X50 Pro+ misses out on this feature, perhaps due to the presence of a large sensor onboard already. It uses ordinary OIS.

In terms of sound quality, Vivo’s X series has always performed well in HiFi. The X50 supports three microphones and Hi-Res certification while the X50 Pro adds an AK4377A sound quality chip, which also supports Hi-Res certification.

As for the prices, the Vivo X50 (8GB + 128GB) is priced at 3498 yuan (~$490) while the 8GB+256GB variant is priced at 3898 yuan (~$547). On the other hand, the X50 Pro  (8GB + 128GB) is priced at 4298 yuan (~$603) and 4698 yuan (~$450) for the 8GB+256GB variant. The X50 went on sale today.
