Put your mirrorless camera aside and leave the professional photography to vivo X50 Pro!

Although vivo has added multiple product lines in recent years due to increasing market competition pressure, this has not weakened the status of the "X" series - whether it is new technologies such as screen fingerprint, Super HDR or periscope telephoto, vivo is the first to use them in the "X" series.

As expected, vivo's recently released new generation "X" series product, vivo X50 Pro, continues this product strategy and is equipped with the revolutionary micro-gimbal technology for the first time.

Of course, on this basis, vivo did not give up on construction in other aspects, but instead took the micro gimbal as the main axis to create a professional imaging flagship in the imaging era.

Symmetrical design with a nice touch

Friends who are familiar with vivo know that the appearance of its products has always been widely praised in the mobile phone industry. The vivo X50 Pro is no exception.

On the front, the vivo X50 Pro is equipped with a 6.56-inch AMOLED flexible curved screen. Due to the use of COP packaging technology, the screen-to-body ratio of the vivo X50 Pro front body reaches an astonishing 92.6%. At the same time, the two sides of the vivo X50 Pro screen extend backwards, visually highlighting the content on the screen.

It is worth noting that the screen of vivo X50 Pro also supports a high screen refresh rate of 90Hz and a high touch screen sampling rate of 180Hz, which also makes the content presentation effect of vivo X50 Pro very eye-catching, and the overall visual effect often has a sense of enhanced reality that overflows the screen.

The glass back cover of the vivo X50 Pro adopts a large-arc edge design that is consistent with the front screen. It not only brings a symmetrical and orderly beauty visually, but also fits the curvature of the palm. Coupled with the warm AG matte process, the vivo X50 Pro has an extremely outstanding silky-smooth grip.

Although the vivo X50 Pro adopts a quad-camera design, vivo has integrated the quad-camera combination of the vivo X50 Pro through a rectangular frame and clever camera stacking, which increases the quality of the whole machine. It is worth mentioning that, perhaps to highlight the importance of the camera, there is a line of small words "Professional Photography" engraved on the top of the vivo X50 Pro body, which means "professional photography".

Although it is a 5G mobile phone, the body thickness of vivo X50 Pro is only 8.04mm. In contrast, the average thickness of 5G mobile phones on the market is over 10mm, which further highlights the advancement and care of vivo X50 Pro in design and engineering manufacturing.

In general, the appearance of vivo X50 Pro surpasses that of general flagship products in terms of screen-to-body ratio and material. In a sense, it even reaches the height of "artwork" and will definitely not disappoint the expectations of those who love appearance.

Micro gimbal + ultra wide angle + periscope telephoto, even mirrorless cameras don’t dare to play like this

Considering that the vivo X50 Pro has "Professional Photography" engraved on the body and also uses micro-gimbal technology for the first time. Therefore, there is no doubt that taking pictures will be the highlight of this phone.

Judging from the parameters, the vivo X50 Pro is equipped with a four-camera combination of 48 million micro-cloud super-sensitive main camera + 120° wide-angle macro + 13 million professional portrait + periscope telephoto.

The 48-megapixel micro-cloud super-sensitive main camera adopts a "double ball suspension" structure. In addition to the two-way rotation of the X and Y axes, it also supports YAW and PITCH axial movement, which can achieve "three-dimensional anti-shake". In short, the vivo X50 Pro integrates traditional gimbal equipment into a micro-cloud super-sensitive main camera.

In addition, the main camera of vivo X50 Pro is IMX598 sensor, and the aperture reaches an amazing f/1.6, so the comprehensive photosensitivity of its main camera has been improved by 39% compared with the previous generation. In addition, vivo has also customized the RAW domain AI noise reduction algorithm for vivo X50 Pro, which makes this phone have extremely strong low-light shooting capabilities.

In order to intuitively experience the anti-shake capability of the vivo X50 Pro's micro-gimbal, we let the vivo X50 Pro and iPhone 11 record videos at the same time in a running scene. Because when running, our arms need to swing, and there will be a large vibration when landing, which greatly tests the anti-shake control ability of the mobile phone.

From the comparison of the animated pictures above, we can find that the micro-gimbal anti-shake capability of vivo X50 Pro is indeed well-deserved. Even if there is a large degree of shaking during shooting, it can still present an extremely stable picture. In contrast, the picture taken by iPhone 11 has a large shaking, which almost becomes a "waste film".

Judging from the flower samples, the vivo X50 Pro's color reproduction ability is excellent. It can take into account both the gorgeous flower subject and the deep green leaves, creating a strong picture vitality.

In night scenes, the performance of the vivo X50 Pro is exceptional. On the one hand, it takes care of the exposure of highlights, and on the other hand, it also improves the brightness of dark areas, presenting a very balanced look and feel. And zooming in to see the details, the vivo X50 Pro also avoids the problems of noise and poor resolution that are very easy to appear in night samples.

120° ultra-wide-angle photo

Since it is equipped with a 120° wide-angle lens, the vivo X50 Pro also supports taking 120° ultra-wide-angle photos. From the comparison sample photos, the ultra-wide-angle lens of the vivo X50 Pro can capture more details while avoiding edge distortion, making it a perfect harvester of likes in Moments.

It is worth noting that the fourth camera of vivo X50 Pro is a 5x periscope telephoto lens with 60x super zoom, so it can take “telescope” photos.

60x zoom

The three pictures above were taken by vivo X50 Pro at normal focal length, 10x zoom, and 60x zoom. By comparison, we can find that its 60x zoom not only allows you to shoot far enough, but also allows you to shoot clearly enough, which is very rare.

Equipped with a powerful camera and no omissions in software-level construction, the vivo X50 Pro's photo-taking effect is not only unmatched in the entire smartphone industry, but even compared with more professional mirrorless devices, it also has obvious advantages in convenience and scalability.

Yes, with the vivo X50 Pro, you can really use your mirrorless camera as you like.

Play large-scale online games

In terms of core configuration, the vivo X50 Pro is equipped with a 7nm Qualcomm Snapdragon processor with a maximum main frequency of 2.4Ghz. In addition, vivo has customized a game mode for the vivo X50 Pro at the software level that can intelligently schedule resources to better tap the potential of the vivo X50 Pro.

The actual performance of vivo X50 Pro still needs to be combined with actual conditions. Therefore, we chose the popular online game "QQ Speed" to test the actual gaming performance of vivo X50 Pro.

In actual testing, thanks to the powerful performance of Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, vivo X50 Pro can almost run "QQ Speed" at full frame rate. And with the support of 90Hz high screen refresh rate and 180Hz high touch screen sampling rate technology, there is no delay between the protagonist's actions and our control. Almost when we slide, it can give corresponding feedback, which is a perfect game tool.

Of course, in addition to its powerful performance, we cannot ignore the temperature control performance of vivo X50 Pro - after all, the body of vivo X50 Pro is very slim, which means that the components inside the body are stacked more tightly.

We let the vivo X50 Pro run "QQ Speed" at room temperature for half an hour, and tested the body temperature of the vivo X50 Pro with a temperature gun. We found that the highest temperature appeared near the camera, which was only 39.1℃, which would not affect our use at all.

60% of the battery can be charged in half an hour

Although the vivo X50 Pro has a very slim body, in order to ensure a long-lasting 5G experience, it is still equipped with a large 4315mAh battery. On this basis, vivo has also added VEG energy protection technology to extend battery life.

In addition, in order to quickly make up for the loss of the large battery, vivo also equipped it with 33W vivo Flash Charge.

In order to test the battery life, we let it run "PUBG Mobile" for an hour. As a result, the vivo X50 Pro only lost 16% of its power, which shows that it has really worked hard on battery life. In actual scenarios, the vivo X50 Pro can undoubtedly support a day of heavy use.

The opposite of a large battery is, of course, charging. For this, we used the original charger to charge the vivo X50 Pro. It only took half an hour for the vivo X50 Pro to be charged to 60%.

On the one hand, the battery life is long enough, and on the other hand, the charging speed is fast enough. The vivo X50 Pro has two parallel lines, which greatly alleviates the battery anxiety that is prevalent in the current mobile phone industry.

Summarize

As a new generation product of the vivo X series, the vivo X50 Pro not only continues the brand genes of the X series, but also simultaneously builds different dimensions such as appearance, performance, and battery life. It is definitely a rare "imaging" machine in 2020.

From an industry perspective, with the advent of the 5G era, new forms of communication such as short videos and pictures will continue to explode. The emergence of vivo X50 Pro will undoubtedly fill the gap between this demand and trend, and greatly satisfy users' expectations for mobile phone imaging functions.

If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. If you don’t want to be left behind in the future Internet wave, or want to better express yourself, then choosing vivo X50 Pro will definitely not let you down.
