After launching the “Imagery Master” X70 line, vivo pushes the limits of mobile photography with the new X80 series—co-engineered with ZEISS.

Back in the day, you can only get professional-quality photos from a professional camera. But with innovation and technology, the smartphones of today can provide the same results. That’s why mobile photography—known as “phonetography”—is a popular medium for content creators and aspiring photographers. Beyond the everyday functions of calling and texting, smartphones have evolved into mini cameras that you can carry around with ease.

From high megapixels to add-ons like superzoom, night mode, and more, many tech brands have started to prioritize their phones’ photography and videography features. Take mobile phone brand vivo Philippines for example. One of the leading smartphone brands in the country, it unveiled many camera-centric smartphones, like the “Imagery Master” X70 line.

And joining its ranks is the much-awaited addition to its premium flagship smartphone category: the vivo X80 series.

Owning Your Masterpiece

Pushing the limits of mobile photography further by delivering unique capabilities, the vivo X80 and X80 Pro feature superb camera capabilities, powerful performance, and a chic design. By teaming up with ZEISS for a global partnership with vivo, this new smartphone leverages vivo’s development and pioneering efforts.

Much like the previous iterations of the vivo X line, the X80 series comes with the latest innovations in mobile photography and imaging technology. For one thing, the X80 series boast ZEISS Optics with all lenses—meeting ZEISS T* Coating standards.

The result? Users can capture the world clearly, vividly, and in its truest colors. Likewise, the ZEISS T* Coating standards serve as a solid foundation for superior night photography, through the powerful ZEISS Super Night Camera feature.

On the other hand, the X80 series also include ZEISS’ Cinematic Video capabilities, which deliver professional videos with quality and clarity fit for the big screen. And with high-level image purity, sharp portrait subjects, as well as natural-looking bokeh flares, users can be as creative as they want and record moments in amazing detail.

Plus, both the X80 and the X80 Pro variant include AI Video Enhancement, which detects scenarios and matches them with the best camera settings; Active Centering OIS System, which maximizes the stabilization range of each frame so every video is smooth and clear; and XDR Photo display technology—specially crafted to make otherwise ordinary images look like HDR images on the phone screen.

Another unique function for the X80 Pro includes the first and only Gimbal Portrait Camera in a smartphone in the country, which allows users to shoot pro-standard portraits effortlessly and with utmost stability.

Masterful Performance: the vivo V1 + Chip

Going over and beyond smartphone and camera technology, the vivo X80 series debuted a custom chip that’s conceptualized and created by vivo itself: the vivo V1+ Chip. Designed to bring imaging, display and game graphics on smartphones to new heights, this exclusive vivo chip is able to enhance night video denoising and HDR performance to deliver outstanding images and videos despite unfavorable light conditions.

But more than that, the vivo V1+ Chip boosts the performance of the vivo X80 and X80 Pro.

With a dual-chip processing system which brings together the customized vivo V1+ Chip with the latest processors in the market, the vivo X80 and X80 Pro is a testament of flagship, dual-core performance. With this combination, the X80’s flagship processor provides enough power for gaming. Plus, it even comes with Game Frame Interpolation, X-Axis Linear Motor, and Dual Stereo Speaker—for an immersive gaming experience with powerful sound.

With a 2K E5 Ultra Vision Screen, an E5 AMOLED display with WQHD+ resolution, and a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, everything—from gaming to video streaming—is sure to feel incredibly sharp, vivid, and smooth. With additional SGS Eye Care Display and SGS Seamless certifications, these devices offer superb graphics, as well as protection and the ease of viewing for the users.

Since charging safely is just as important, the X80 series offers a range of protective measures that have passed TÜV Rheinland Fast Charge Certification. With this, users can enjoy non-stop power, as the X80 Pro comes with a large 4700mAh battery, while the X80 features a 4500mAh battery.

Likewise, the X80 is equipped with an upgraded 80W Wired FlashCharge, while the X80 Pro features a 50W Wireless FlashCharge compatibility—fast-charging properties to match the high-performance features of the phone.

The vivo X80 Series: A Study of Elegance and Design

Aside from its high performance in camera, videography, gaming, and day-to-day functions, the X80 series phones are also designed to look the part. The X80 Pro, for example, comes in Cosmic Black—a compelling shade inspired by the tranquility and vastness of the starlit night sky. On the other hand, the X80 variant comes in a vibrant and youthful shade: Urban Blue.

With a unique Ceramic Cloud Window 2.0 design that balances a round camera module with a square plate for their exterior design, both smartphones exude grandeur and elegance. What’s more, the back cover is made of Fluorite AG Glass—which is pleasant to the touch and resistant to fingerprint smudges, while the device comes with 6.78-inch 3D Curved Screen for a more seamless appearance.

Both variants of the vivo X80 series will be available for pre-order through vivo’s official website and e-commerce flagship stores such as Shopee and Lazada from June 10 to June 17. The X80 Pro—the first Pro variant of any vivo X series line released in the country—is priced at PHP 59,999, while the X80 variant retails at PHP 45,999.
