Vivo X60 and X60 Pro Features, Specifications, and Price
With the last 2 days left in 2020, domestic flagships are more than one fierce. On December 29th, Vivo officially released the Vivo X60 and X60 Pro series, debuting the Samsung 5nm Exynos 1080 processor, micro cloud platform 2.0, and Zeiss lens, as well as the new OriginOS system, which has changed a lot. The super-sized cup of Vivo, X60 Pro+ will be released in late January 2021.
Design
In terms of appearance, the Vivo X60 series adopts a new design, with the overall design concept of “back to the basics” the front is a mid-pole sunscreen, the front camera is centered, the front and rear 3D curved screen, the back is satin AG process, in different angles of deflection, as if silk in the sun shining silver, enjoy the silky smooth, and does not leave fingerprints.
Vivo X60 series continues the classic two-color cloud step design with a new version of Choker, which continues to carry the mission of echoing the color scheme. The X60 series is available in three colorways: Force, Shimmer, and Color, of which the Shimmer and Color rear shells use the innovative satin AG process, which officials say will not only be satin-smooth and delicate but also visually more advanced and almost completely fingerprint-free.
As the flagship of the X series, X60 and X60 Pro is also the ultimate in thinness and lightness. The Pro version is 7.59mm thick and weighs 178 grams, while X60 is 7.36mm thick, making it the thinnest 5G phone at present.
Screen, the X60 series is equipped with a 6.56-inch curved sunscreen, AMOLED E3 material, resolution 2376×1080, the screen-to-body ratio of 92.7%, typical brightness 500nits, peak brightness of 1300nites, contrast ratio 6 million:1, support 100% DCI-P3 color gamut. The display is COP flexible screen which supports 120Hz high refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate, and also supports HDR10+ certification, and has passed Eye Care Display eye protection certification, which effectively reduces blue light that is harmful to human eyes.
The Vivo X60 Series released this time adopts the under-screen optical fingerprint solution, high-performance intelligent audio amplifier, and intelligent call and recording enhancement solution provided by Huitian Technology, and both parties are committed to bringing the latest technology experience to consumers.
Performance
Hardware, the X60 series is equipped with Samsung Exynos 1080 processor, which is Vivo’s custom 5nm flagship processor with 1+3+4 tri-cluster architecture, consisting of a highest performance Cortex-A78 core (maximum frequency of 2.8GHz), three high-performance Cortex-A78 cores, and four efficient Cortex-A55 cores, and an integrated GPU of Mali-G78 10 cores.
Besides, the Exynos 1080 integrates Samsung’s latest 5G NSA/SA dual-mode modem, which supports download speeds of up to 5.1Gbps. In addition to supporting 5G NR Sub-6 and millimeter wave (mmWave), it also supports 2G, 3G, and 4G for greater global network coverage. In addition to SA/NSA dual-mode, X60 series also incorporates quad-band antenna and dual-band Wi-Fi antenna, 5G and Wi-Fi 6 network signal, stable and smooth network speed.
With a score performance of up to 620,000 points on AnTuTu Benchmark, the Exynos 1080 is one of the most powerful 5G processors available. Other aspects of the Vivo X60 series also support 12GB LPDDR4 memory, UFS 3.1 flash memory, and more, and support memory fusion, application preload 2.0, and other optimization technologies, which can achieve a smooth effect of memory capacity + 3GB.
Battery and fast charging: Vivo X60 built-in 4300mAh battery, Vivo X60 Pro built-in 4200mAh battery, both support 33W flash charging, pre-installed OriginOS, where Vivo X60 Pro also equipped with CS43131 independent HiFi chip.
Camera
Photography is the biggest highlight of the X60 series of phones, and this generation brings several heavy-duty feature upgrades, including Micro Cloud Platform 2.0, Zeiss lens, Super Night View, etc.
In terms of imaging, the Vivo X60 Series multi-focal length systems all use Zeiss optics, which are 25mm second-generation micro cloud stage main camera lens, 50mm professional portrait lens, 16mm wide-angle macro lens, and 125mm periscope lens. Based on the second generation of micro cloud platform stabilizer, with the new upgraded Vivo motion detection algorithm, Vivo X60 supports 1X, 2X multi-focal range motion capture, Vivo X60 Pro can realize 1X, 2X, 5X multi-focal range motion capture.
The Vivo X60 Pro has a 32MP selfie camera on the front with support for multiple beauty effects, while the rear is made up of a 48MP main camera (Super Steady Micro Cloud Platform) with a super large f/1.48 aperture + 13MP 0.6X ultra wide-angle + 8MP 5X periscope + 13MP 2X portrait. The X60 standard version doesn’t have the 8MP periscope lens.
First of all, the previous X50 series premiered the micro cloud platform technology, compared to the traditional OIS optical stabilization, the micro cloud platform can not only achieve “X-axis, Y-axis bidirectional movement”, but also realize the rotation around the two axes, forming YAW and PITCH axial movement, to achieve the effect of multi-dimensional “three-dimensional anti-shake”, better solve the user in taking pictures and shooting video encountered anti-shake problems.
This time the X60 Pro no regret, and the first micro cloud station 2.0. Compared to the previous version, the 2.0 version of the micro cloud table occupies about 40% less board area, the thickness has been reduced by 1mm, can be used in the 7.59mm ultra-thin body. Also, MicroCloud 2.0 is upgraded to F/1.48 aperture this time, compared with the previous F/1.6 aperture; which improves the light intake by 16.8%, and the AOA high-precision assembly process also improves the edge aberration of large-aperture lenses.
With the anti-shake capability of Micro Cloud Station 2.0, the Vivo X60 Pro is upgraded with four-axis anti-shake, and also continues the five-axis VIS video stabilization of its predecessor, which takes the anti-shake shooting capability to a higher level for both photos and videos.
In addition to the micro cloud platform 2.0, the Vivo X60 series also chose to cooperate with the century-old Zeiss, the two sides jointly brought the “Vivo Zeiss Joint Imaging System”, bringing Zeiss certified optical lens, not only to reduce dispersion, field curvature, and distortion, but also the unique Zeiss imaging style.
Also, the X60 series camera design draws on the iconic design elements of Tessar lenses, increasing the number of lenses within the lens and upgrading all lenses to more expensive aspherical lenses that are easier to correct for aberrations, with optics that are qualified as “Vario-Tessar” lens quality. In terms of coating, the X60’s lenses also use Zeiss’ signature T-coating, which greatly improves lens transmission and reduces flare, thereby significantly improving image quality.
Finally, the X60 series reproduces the fantastic rotational bokeh effect of the classic Zeiss Biotar lens on the X60 series by reconstructing the spatial depth and light spot model, giving portraits a more unique flavor.
Vivo X60 Pro Camera Modules:
- 48Mp main camera: IMX598, micro-head
- 13Mp ultra wide angle: S5K3L6, 0.6X
- 13Mp portrait: S5K3L6, 2X
- 8Mp periscope telephoto: OV08A, 5X

Operation System
The system, X60 series this time equipped with the new OriginOS, based on Android 11 development, in the UI interface, desktop, interaction logic and smoothness, service, and other aspects of a comprehensive upgrade, giving a new feeling.
It is understood that the Vivo X60 series adopts two technologies: kernel-level dynamic engine and memory fusion+ 3G, which can raise the priority of visual interaction-related tasks to the highest from the bottom of the system, while the system can also accurately identify low active and high occupied data in the process and dispatch it to external storage space to improve the smoothness of the phone from the bottom of the system.
The memory fusion technology, which can be subdivided into memory fusion, process optimization, and application preloading, calls for part of the idle flash memory space on the one hand, and low system occupancy of memory on the other, thus allowing 8GB of memory to be used as 11GB of memory and 12GB of memory as 15GB of memory. The phone generally supports multiple APPs running in the background, but after switching APPs, there is often a situation of killing the background and having to reload, which is very troublesome. Vivo X60 supports up to 20 APPs opening and resident in seconds.
Price
Last but not least, the Vivo X60 8GB+128GB is priced at RMB 3498, the 8GB+256GB version is priced at RMB 3798, and the Vivo X60 Pro 12GB+256GB version is priced at RMB 4498, with pre-sale on December 29 and official opening on January 8th.
