vivo has launched its latest flagship device in Kenya, the vivo V50, setting a new standard in mobile portrait photography. Engineered with cutting-edge ZEISS Professional Portrait technology, the V50 is for users who want high-performance imaging, sleek design and long battery life in one device. Its launch marks vivo’s move to dominate the premium mid-range segment with innovation for both professional creators and everyday users.
A New Era of Portraits
At the heart of the V50 is its main feature — a 50 MP ZEISS Co-engineered All Main Camera setup that turns the phone into a professional portrait machine. vivo’s long term collaboration with ZEISS has resulted to what is arguably the brand’s most advanced camera system yet.
The ZEISS OIS Main Camera with 1/1.55″ sensor captures more light even in low light. With VCS Camera-Bionic Spectrum, the system mimics the human eye’s color perception resulting to more natural and vivid photos. The mini gimbal and CIPA 4.0 certified design ensures sharp and blur-free photos especially in low light and action shots.
AI Aura Light Portrait 2.0 and ZEISS Style Bokeh
The V50 introduces AI Aura Light Portrait 2.0 with 143x ultra-soft fill light. It adjusts to different skin tones and lighting environments. New cinematic portrait modes such as Rembrandt Lighting and Butterfly Lighting add drama to photos while ZEISS Multifocal Portrait modes (23 mm, 35 mm and 50 mm) with 7 ZEISS Style Bokeh filters replicate DSLR effects with subtlety and depth.Selfies are not an afterthought either — a 50 MP ZEISS Group Selfie Camera with 92° wide-angle lens and AI 3D Studio Lighting 2.0 gives you detailed and flattering results anywhere. A 119° ultra-wide rear camera for group photos and landscapes and 4K video recording, Film Camera Mode, and AI Image Studio for cinematic creativity in your hands.
Style Meets Substance
Beyond its camera capabilities, the vivo V50 is a work of art in modern smartphone design. The Ultra Slim 4D Infinity Curved Screen gives you immersive visuals in a super lightweight body. The 41° Golden Curvature and center frame is designed for extended use in entertainment, gaming and productivity.
The V50 comes in Mombasa Blue and Satin Black colors inspired by nature. The Dual Ring Camera Module has luxurious details — a Diamond Pattern matte finish and high-gloss corner cuts showing vivo’s attention to form and finish.
Long Lasting Battery and Flagship Grade Performance
Underneath the sleek body lies a 6000 mAh (TYP) BlueVolt Battery, with second generation silicon-carbon anode and encapsulation technology for longer life and better thermal control. With 90W FlashCharge, you can get up to 6 hours of talk time from just 10 minutes of charging.
