Vivo V50 Elite Edition launched in India with TWS 3e earphones, priced at ₹41,999
The Elite Edition bears strong resemblance to the standard Vivo V50 that debuted earlier in February. However, it brings with it a fresh Rose Red finish and slightly refined features aimed at premium users.
Under the hood, the Vivo V50 Elite Edition is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor and runs on FuntouchOS 15 based on Android 15. Vivo has confirmed that the device will receive three years of operating system upgrades and four years of security patches.
It sports a 6.77-inch quad-curved AMOLED display with full-HD+ resolution, up to 120Hz refresh rate, and peak local brightness of 4,500 nits. Designed for immersive visuals and fluid scrolling, the display is one of the highlights of the device.
On the camera front, the handset features a dual rear camera setup developed in collaboration with Zeiss. It includes a 50MP primary sensor with optical image stabilisation (OIS) and a 50MP ultra-wide lens. Selfie enthusiasts can rely on the 50MP front-facing camera, complemented by an Aura Light feature and AI-assisted photo editing tools.
The device is backed by a substantial 6,000mAh battery that supports 90W wired fast charging. Connectivity options include dual 5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, OTG, and USB Type-C (USB 3.2). The phone also comes with an in-display fingerprint scanner and boasts IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance. It measures 163.29 x 76.72 x 7.57 mm and weighs 199 grams.
The Vivo V50 Elite Edition is priced at ₹ 41,999 for the 12GB + 512GB variant. It is currently available for purchase through Amazon, Flipkart, and select offline retail outlets. Customers purchasing the device online can avail themselves of up to ₹ 3,000 instant cashback via HDFC, SBI, and Axis Bank cards, or opt for an exchange bonus of the same value. Additionally, no-cost EMI options are offered for up to six months.
Offline buyers can also access a ₹ 3,000 instant discount through cards from banks including SBI, Kotak, HSBC, Yes Bank, and others. They are also eligible for Vivo's V-upgrade programme, which provides a ₹ 3,000 exchange bonus.
For comparison, the standard Vivo V50 is priced at ₹ 40,999 for the same 12GB + 512GB configuration, with lower-tier options starting at ₹ 34,999.

Both were launched this year and come packed with top-notch features and a premium look that's sure to impress. The Vivo X Fold 5 runs on Android 15 with FuntouchOS 15, delivering a smooth and modern experience. In comparison, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 runs on Samsung's latest One UI 8 based on Android 16, offering a clean and reliable interface. Vivo offers the X Fold 5 in a sleek Titanium Grey finish, while Samsung provides more colour options which includes Blue Shadow, Silver Shadow, and Jetblack. Both foldable smartphones offer advanced features and sleek designs, catering to diverse user preferences. From exceptional camera capabilities to lightning-fast processors, these devices promise top-notch performance. In this article, this comparison aims to simplify the decision decision-making process, helping users determine which phone best suits their needs and preferences. Vivo X Fold 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Design The Vivo X Fold 5 boasts a sleek and lightweight design, measuring just 9.2mm when folded and 4.3mm when open, and weighs 217 grams. It features second-generation Armor Glass on the cover screen and offers industry-first IPX8, IPX9, and IPX9+ water resistance with 5X protection. In comparison, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is slightly lighter at 215 grams and continues Samsung's refined foldable design but does not match the same level of protection standards as the Vivo. Vivo X Fold 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Display Vivo offers a massive 8.03-inch foldable AMOLED inner display (2480 × 2200) and a 6.53-inch cover screen (2748 × 1172), both with 120Hz refresh rate, up to 4,500 nits peak brightness, TÜV Rheinland certification, and Zeiss Master Colour calibration. Samsung counters with an 8-inch foldable inner display and a 6.5-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X cover screen with 2520 × 1080 (FHD+) resolution and 120Hz refresh rate.

While Samsung offers One UI 8 based on Android 16 with several smart features, it lacks the dedicated AI imaging tools that Vivo brings out-of-the-box. Vivo X Fold 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Connectivity The Vivo X Fold 5 supports all the essential modern connectivity options, including 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth, and dual SIM capabilities. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 offers a more clearly defined connectivity suite with 5G, LTE, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4 support, ensuring faster data transfer, improved wireless range, and lower latency.
