50 MP[1] on Every Lens: The Distinctive ZEISS Professional Portrait
Powered by the vivo ZEISS Co-engineered Imaging System, V50 establishes itself as the portrait flagship of the year. For V50, vivo and ZEISS jointly define and pursue all criteria that are required to achieve the ZEISS standard of optical quality and imaging performance. Its unique 50 MP ZEISS All Main Camera delivers professional grade performance across all rear camera lenses, making it the perfect tool for capturing and preserving touching memories with a touch of sophistication.

An integrated mini gimbal and independent stabilization design achieve CIPA 4.0 DSLR-Level Stabilization[2], minimizing blur from handshake and enabling extended night exposures for crystal-clear night scenes.
V50 debuts vivo’s next-generation virtual lighting technology, AI Aura Light Portrait 2.0. Utilizing AI algorithms and a 143x ultra-soft fill light[3], it delivers studio-quality, multi-angle lighting that is both soft and atmospheric. Two new cinematic portrait lighting styles, Rembrandt Lighting and Butterfly Lighting, further enhance your portraits. Rembrandt Lighting creates a dramatic, three-dimensional effect with subtle side fill light, while Butterfly Lighting emphasizes facial contours for a glamorous look.

Enduring Power and Performance: Ultra-Slim Design, Exceptional Battery Life, and Seamless Efficiency
V50’s exceptional battery performance is made possible by the combination of powerful hardware and software.

These include an industry-leading second-generation silicon-carbon anode and vivo’s proprietary battery encapsulation technology.
