vivo V30e unveiled: Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, 120Hz screen, and 50MP selfie camera
As promised, vivo today added a new member to the V30 lineup, dubbed vivo V30e. The vivo V30e has the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 SoC at the helm with 8GB RAM and up to 256GB storage. It runs Android 14-based Funtouch OS 14 out of the box, and vivo promises three Android version upgrades and four years of security updates for the phone.
The vivo V30e packs a 6.78" 120Hz FullHD+ curved AMOLED display with 1,300 nits peak brightness and a fingerprint scanner underneath. It also has a centered punch-hole for the 50MP selfie camera with autofocus.
Around the back, the vivo V30e sports a circular camera island housing flash called "Smart Aura Light" and two cameras - 50MP primary (Sony IMX882 with OIS) and 8MP ultrawide (120° FOV). The primary camera and selfie shooter can record 4K videos, while the former "can also double up as a 50mm prime-focal length portrait lens which deploys a lossless-2x zoom-in."
Fueling the entire package is a 5,500 mAh battery with 44W fast charging support. The rest of the vivo V30e's highlights include an IP64 rating, USB-C, and 5G connectivity.
The vivo V30e comes in Velvet Red and Silk Blue colors with two memory options - 8GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB, priced at INR27,999 ($335/€315) and INR29,999 ($360/€335), respectively. The smartphone will go on sale in India starting May 9 through vivo's official Indian website, Flipkart, and retail stores.

And it's not the brands' fault for not being able to segment their slabs properly, but Qualcomm's own naming fiasco instead

Why would Qualcomm release a Gen 2 chip after several gen 3 chips? I believe that the 7s Gen 2 was originally planned to be the 6 Gen 2 until some marketers thought they could pull a fast one and try to market it as a 7 series.
