Vivo’s V50 Elite Edition is a neatly wrapped bundle that brings together the smartphone and a pair of TWS 3e earbuds. It’s based on the top-tier 12GB + 512GB version of the V50 and comes in a Red Rose finish that sure stands out.
Inside the box, the TWS 3e earbuds comae in a Dark Indigo colour and feature active noise cancellation of up to 30dB. Vivo says they’re fitted with a high-resolution driver and support DeepX 3.0 sound tuning, which allows for some level of audio customisation. Battery life is rated at up to 42 hours in total, or 36 hours with ANC switched on, as per Vivo. They’re also IP54-certified, offering basic protection against dust and splashes.
The phone’s imaging system is tuned in collaboration with Zeiss, bringing access to seven Zeiss-style portrait modes, along with India-exclusive Wedding Style Portraits for more tailored results. You get a 50MP main sensor with optical image stabilisation (OIS), paired with a 50MP ultra-wide lens. Around the front, there’s another 50MP camera for selfies and video calls.
Under the hood, it runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor. Up front, there’s a 6.77-inch quad-curved AMOLED display, capable of hitting a peak local brightness of 4,500 nits.
