The smartphone will be the third addition to the V50 series, after Vivo V50 and Vivo V50e.

As per a report by Mint, the Vivo V50 Elite edition is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 system on chip (SoC). The smartphone may sport a 6.77-inch FHD+ quad-curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 4500nits peak brightness.

 

The camera island will likely be circular and different from the pill shaped module of the base Vivo V50 model. For the camera system, the smartphone may feature a dual camera setup with ZEISS integration, that will likely sport a 50MP primary camera with optical image stabilisation (OIS) paired with a 50MP ultrawide camera.
