Vivo has officially unveiled the V40 series in India. Vivo has historically reserved ZEISS-branded optics for its flagship X series, although that tradition broke with the Vivo V30 Pro, which was the first phone outside the flagship and foldable line-up to feature ZEISS cameras.

With the Vivo V40 series, both the vanilla and Pro models will feature ZEISS cameras and all the benefits that come with it, particularly in the portrait photography department. The Vivo V40 and Vivo V40 Pro bring key essential upgrades over their predecessors, rather than a major generational upgrade. Now, let's dive into the specifications of the Vivo V40 series.
