Camera To Be The Biggest Upgrade In X500 Series
Camera performance is expected to be one of the biggest highlights of the X500 series. The lineup is reportedly set to feature a 200MP telephoto periscope camera, positioning the series among the most ambitious camera-focused smartphones in its segment.
The vivo X500 Pro is tipped to debut a new ZEISS Ultra Dynamic Main Camera, reportedly custom-developed by vivo in collaboration with Sony. The camera is said to offer up to 17EV of dynamic range, potentially allowing the phone to preserve significantly more detail in challenging lighting conditions, including heavily backlit scenes.
The X500 Pro is also tipped to feature the BluePrint Guanyu 900, a new 50MP Sony sensor measuring 1/1.28-inch. According to the leak, the sensor will support 4K video recording at 240fps for slow-motion capture, along with 4K 120fps HDR direct output, potentially giving the X500 Pro a major advantage in mobile videography.
When Will It Launch In India?
