Vivo has started teasing its next-generation V-series phone, and to no surprise, the company is calling it the Vivo V60. The phone is being teased on Vivo's X handle (formerly Twitter), and even the phone's renders have started to do the rounds on the internet. From the looks of it, the company seems to be moving away from the design language we are accustomed to seeing with the V40 and V50 series. Instead, the phone looks strikingly similar to the recently released Vivo X200 FE, with a similar camera layout. The only visual difference is the colours, of course, and the V60 smartphone has slightly curved sides — more like 2.5D curves — which should give it a more natural feel in the hand as opposed to the sharp and flat edges of the X200 FE.advertisementThe Vivo V60 is tipped to launch on August 12, and ahead of this rumoured date, some of the phone's key specs, including the camera details and chipset, have leaked online.According to tipster Pro Tech Village via X, the Vivo V60 is expected to come with a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is said to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor. This is the same mid-range chipset that also powers the recently released Realme 15 Pro.
In terms of design, Vivo is going for a more premium look with the V60. Official teasers show a hole-punch display with minimal bezels and slightly curved edges. As mentioned earlier, the back of the phone houses a capsule-shaped camera module — similar to what we've seen on the X200 FE — and overall, the phone looks quite sleek. It is rumoured to come in three colour options at launch: Mist Grey, Moonlit Blue, and Auspicious Gold.As for the cameras, Vivo has confirmed that the V60 will support 100x digital zoom, and ZEISS optics are back again. The rear camera setup is tipped to include a 50-megapixel primary sensor with OIS, a second 50-megapixel 3x periscope lens also with OIS, and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera. On the front, users can expect a 50-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls.One of the biggest talking points, though, is the battery. The Vivo V60 is said to pack a large 6,500mAh battery, paired with support for 90W fast charging. That should comfortably get most users through a full day and then some, depending on usage. The phone is also expected to come with IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.As per rumours, the Vivo V60 may be priced somewhere between Rs 37,000 and Rs 40,000 in India. For context, the Vivo V50 was launched in India at a starting price of Rs 34,999.- Ends
