The Vivo X60 Curved Screen edition smartphone has launched in China. It is yet another X60 series phone from the brand after the Vivo X60, Vivo X60 Pro, Vivo X60 Pro+, and Vivo X60t for the home market. As the name suggests, it is a new variant of the existing Vivo X60 smartphone.

Vivo X60 Curved Screen specifications and features

The major highlight of the Vivo X60 Curved Screen Edition is that it features a 6.56-inch OLED display with curved edges. In comparison, the vanilla X60, which debuted back in December last year came with a 6.56-inch flat AMOLED screen. The rest of the specs of the newly announced Curved Screen model are the same as the original X60.

The Vivo X60 Curved Screen edition’s display supports an FHD+ resolution, a 19.8:9 aspect ratio, HDR10+, up to 120Hz refresh rate, and an in-screen fingerprint scanner. The handset measures 158.57 x 73.24 x 7.59mm and weighs 176 grams.

The rear camera setup has a micro-gimbal assisted Sony IMX598 48-megapixel main camera with an f/1.79 aperture, a 13-megapixel ultrawide lens with 120-degree FOV, and a 13-megapixel portrait lens. For selfies, it features a front camera of 32-megapixel. The handset runs on OriginOS 1.0 based Android 11 OS.

The Vivo X60 Curved Screen edition is powered by the Exynos 1080 chipset. It ships with up to 12 GB LPDDR4x RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. With memory fusion technology, Vivo offers 3 GB of additional RAM in the form of virtual memory on the X60 Curved Screen edition phone.

The handset houses a 4,300mAh battery, which supports 33W fast charging. The other specs that are available on the device include dual SIM with 5G support, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, dual-frequency GPS, and USB Type-C.

Vivo X60 Curved Screen pricing and availability

The Vivo X60 Curved Screen models such as 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage, 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage, and 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage are priced at 3,299 Yuan (~$513), 3,599 Yuan (~$559), and 3,799 Yuan (~$590), respectively. The first sales of the phone will be carried on June 1 in China and it will be available in three colors like Midnight Black, Shimmer Blue, and Shimmer White.

One of the differences between the Chinese Vivo X60 and Vivo X60 Pro is that the former has a flat display while the latter’s screen is curved. It has now been reported that Vivo plans to launch a curved screen variant of the Vivo X60.

The news comes from the trusted leaker, Digital Chat Station, and according to a post he made on the social media platform today, a curved screen version of the Vivo X60 will launch soon.

The leaker had actually revealed that there will be a curved screen version of the phone back in December before the phone was announced. In that leak, he mentioned that the curved variant will also have a smaller 4200mAh battery capacity. Save for these two differences, he said the two phones are practically the same and should have a similar price tag.

The Vivo X60 has a 6.56-inch 2376 x 1080 display with a centered punch hole and 120Hz refresh rate. There is an Exynos 1080 processor inside with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. There are three rear cameras – a 48MP camera with four-axis stabilization, a 13MP telephoto camera, and a 13MP ultrawide angle camera. For the front-facing camera, Vivo has put a 32MP sensor inside the hole in the display.

The phone also has an in-display fingerprint scanner, Face Unlock, Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, and runs OriginOS based on Android 11. Its 4300mAh battery supports 33W fast wired charging.
