vivo X60 and X60 Pro go international: Snapdragon 870 in, periscope out

23 March 2021
The Pro+ is nowhere to be seen yet. As for the other two, there are changes to the chipset, OS and camera.

Sort by:

Perhaps there are patent issues with the Periscope feature, hence the same X60+ China model could not be launched in international markets.

      i could not understand why companies are giving less features as not providing 3.5 mm jack and memory card slot?
      listen most of the people want these features, if somebody don't want to use them don't use.. but features must be provided.
      double sim slot with dedicated memory card slot, 3.5 mm jack, radio, nfc, is must.

        Anonymous, 23 Mar 2021> The unique gimbal system is provides improve stability... moreVivo never officially confirmed that in the first place lmao. A so called "industry source" must have told GSMA some unfounded BS and they made an article about it based on that information alone.

            > The unique gimbal system is provides improve stability over typical OIS and it enables a new trick – the first pixel shift technology on a smartphone.

            Just imagine having such a low opinion of the consumer, good luck with that marketing bs Vivo.

              These phones will fail

                Now that's ridiculous!
                The crippling of Huawei has given all these Chinese phone companies an excuse to charge more for less, there's no excuse for this one Vivo is supposed to be the camera-centric BBK brand.
                At least the Chinese versions have better band coverage thus year so importing them is an easier choice, though you then lose the Westernised version of Android.

                  Nothing mentioned about dolby or stereo speakers

                    I'm still scratching my head, why they kick out the periscope lens from the X60 Pro and made it so similar to its "liter" sibling? That's something weird there. And that's kinda unusual they still haven't made their premium halo one, the X60 Pro+ outside China.

                      "the 5x periscope lens of the Chinese version is gone"
                      What the hell? Why are they doing this??

                        YUKI93, 23 Mar 2021Hold on a minute, "The best news is that x60Pro+ is no... moreI'm still hoping that original x60Pro+ will go international as it is. That's the reason I consider that this was the best news, even that I was ironic. I don't like what they do with international launch.

                          Anonymous, 23 Mar 2021I got the vivo x60 pro plus chinese version. Much better!With different hardware in chinese and global phones... I doubt that buy the chinese version is a good choice as they will have different ROMs, which often means that a lot of things are in chinese, not translated, or not work globally as it should.

                            no jack, no 5x, what's the point.

                                    This is not a good news from vivo in term of X60 series. I was set on x60Pro+. The best news is that x60Pro+ is not to be seen on the international lunch.
