Earlier today (6th January 2023), Vivo announced that it is rolling out support for next gen Ray Tracing technology for its latest flagship series, the Vivo X90, which would offer an improved gaming experience on these devices. So here are all the details.

The Chinese smartphone maker is bringing the support for the Ray Tracing technology on a hardware flagship chip level, thanks to the X90 series featuring MediaTek Dimensity 9200 SoC and Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. For those unaware, Ray Tracing is basically a new lighting and shading tech for games. While games typically employed pre-rendered shadows and lighting in their games, Ray Tracing turns this process into a real time function. Meaning, a light source can dynamically affect the environment around the user.

In simpler terms, this makes games run at a higher graphical fidelity, which improves the overall immersion of the game itself since simulated light sources improves reflections, refraction, and shadow effects. Under the hood, the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro pack the Dimensitu 9200 SoC while the X90 Pro+ variant houses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Both of these chipset support ray tracing tech on smartphones for certain applications.

Meaning, the whole series will be able to offer its users an improved gaming experience. This technology is further supplemented with the inclusing of a chip level optical tracing computing tech that was self developed by the brand. It is called the FALCON graphics engine that is paired with AI algorithms to help offer immersive lighting and shadow effects.
