Vivo X30, Vivo X30 Pro Unveiled With Punch-Hole Design, 64MP Camera And More

As expected, the Vivo X30 and X30 Pro smartphones have been announced in China. These are 5G smartphones using the Exynos 980 chipset. Both the Vivo X series smartphones have a similar design with a punch-hole cutout measuring 2.98mm at the top right corner and glass build on both sides.

The Vivo X30 and Vivo X30 Pro flaunt similar specifications in terms of hardware, display, storage, battery, etc. with the main difference being the camera specifications. While the X30 comes with triple rear cameras, the Pro variant features quad cameras at the rear.

Vivo X30, Vivo X30 Pro Specifications

Both the Vivo X30 smartphones arrive with a 6.44-inch Super AMOLED display with a FHD+ resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels. Also, there is an in-display fingerprint for authentication purposes along with facial recognition.

Under its hood, the Vivo X30 series will get the power from an Exynos 980 SoC, which is the first Samsung processor to feature an integrated 5G modem. Notably, this chipset was developed in collaboration with Vivo. The octa-core processor features Cortex A77 cores and is teamed up with 8GB RAM and 128GB/256GB storage space.

When it comes to connectivity, the Exynos 980 modem supports SA and NSA networks and supports download speeds of up to 2.55Gbps. It also comes with 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 5.8GHz Wi-Fi bands, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.0. There is a 3.5mm audio jack and a USB Type-C port on the Vivo smartphones.

The Vivo X30 and Vivo X30 Pro arrive with a 4350mAh battery supporting 33W Flash Charge. These new offerings from the company come with liquid cooling to keep the temperature low even when subjected to CPU-intensive tasks. These run FunTouchOS 10 on top of Android 9 Pie instead of Android 10, which is disappointing.
