vivo’s latest flagship line, the X-series, has been launched in China. The new vivo X90 and X90 Pro shares a couple of similarities and brings a couple more improvements than their predecessors did.
First, the similarities. The new vivo X90 and X90 Pro are powered by the new MediaTek Dimensity 9200 processor. They also share the same curved display, which is a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel with a sharp QHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and fancy things like 10-bit color and 1,300 nits of peak brightness.
Both phones will also have the same OriginsOS 3 software and ultra-fast 120W wired charging. But that’s where the similarities end as the X90 has a 4,810mAh battery, while the Pro variant is slightly bigger at 4,870mAh and comes with 50W wireless charging support.
Other key differences are the cameras. The vanilla vivo X90 has a 50-megapixel Sony IMX866 main shooter at f/1.7 with OIS. It is joined by two 12-megapixel IMX663 sensors with ultra-wide and 2x telephoto lenses, respectively.
Obviously, the vivo X90 Pro will take things up a notch. This one boasts a larger 1-inch IMX989 sensor at 50-megapixels. It is joined by a similar 12-megapixel ultra-wide shooter, while the third lens has been upgraded to a 50-megapixel portrait snapper with a 50mm equivalent.
Handling the image processing on both models is vivo’s own VS ISP chip, which also brings low-light improvements.

Meanwhile, the X90 Pro starts at CNY4,999 (around Php40,000) for the 8GB/256GB while the top-of-the-line 12GB/512GB is at CNY5,999 (around Php48,100). They are now up for pre-order in China and will be available on December 6. Release details in the Philippines are yet to be known.
