vivo Philippines officially launched the vivo X60 smartphone in the country on Friday, May 21, 2021. It’s co-engineered with German optics manufacturer ZEISS and promises a redefined mobile photography experience.
“We have collaborated with ZEISS to bring unparalleled sharpness, clarity, and image quality to vivo smartphones”, vivo Senior Vice President and CMO Spark Ni said. The collaboration combines best-in-class optical lenses, sensors, image processing algorithms, and feature-rich shooting modes.

The vivo X60 has triple rear cameras composed of a 48 Megapixel main camera, 13 Megapixel ultra-wide camera, and another 13 Megapixel tele-macro camera. It’s embellished with the ZEISS logo and ZEISS Vario-Tessar trademark similar to professional cameras.
Images produced by the device have a distinct ZEISS quality, especially in Portrait mode. It mimics the ZEISS Biotar lens effect with unique swirly harmonious background bokeh while the subject remains in sharp focus.
It also has Super Night Portrait, Starry Sky, and Extreme Night Vision 2.0 shooting modes for nighttime photography while its optical image stabilization or OIS feature results in smooth hand-held videos and sharp action shots.

A powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset powers the vivo X60 with a 3.2GHz octa-core CPU, a jaw-dropping 12GB of RAM, and the highly optimized Funtouch OS version 11.1 software.
This is paired to a 6.56-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz screen refresh rate and a 240Hz touch response rate. These specs make scrolling ultra-smooth and taps in games register faster than normal.
It also has 5G connectivity to take advantage of the faster mobile internet speeds in Smart and Globe’s 5G networks while being ready for DITO’s future 5G services.
