      Waiting for a future phone that follows up this kind of tech, with just 2 big sensors.

      One that has Ultra Wide 18mm, with 3:2 ratio for Cinematography purpose (along with photo of course).

      One that has optically 28-85mm fast aperture, with 4:3 ratio for Photography purpose (of course can do video as well).

      This setup will minimize too many camera sensors, & the focal length are perfect for street/portrait/travel photography! Dont care so much about 5x or 10x zoom. I'm not that kind of focal length setup.

            chinese companies bring a lot of innovations. but on the other hand, they release so many new models, they cannot support any model for more than a year. So, buying vivo or oppo you buy max 1 year software support. For me, not worth it.

              Kek, 27 Feb 2020From all BBK companies, Vivo has always been the weird one ... moreSome companies like to foster internal competition but it's very unusual to have that many sub-brands compete with each other in more or less the same price brackets. Xiaomi seems to be going the same way with their redmi and poco sub-brands.

                  Fingers crossed for a high refresh rate phone with decent battery, camera and usb 3.0

                      I'm worried that not all Chinese "fast charging" phones actually have smart battery management, with bad battery life as a result of them being charged too aggressively.

                        Cool

                          Anonymous, 27 Feb 2020Is like something new. No flagship worth over 750$No Flagship is worth over 600$ Damn I miss those times.

                            I'm guessing that the "gimbal camera" is actually a camera with a fish-eye lens and aggressive electronic image stabilisation, similar to how 360° cameras work in 2D mode. I would expect it to have lower effective resolution compared to regular phone cameras, as a result of the cropping and stretching that is needed.

                              This will come with its additional price and i fear the worst.
                              1500 bare minimum.

                                    From all BBK companies, Vivo has always been the weird one to me. They seem to always go their own way and come up with some weird looking stuff. At least, they don't seem to have lost any creativity.
