After many teasers pointing to the release of a new Vivo V-series smartphone, Vivo is finally ready to bring the Vivo V30. The new smartphone has been unveiled today as a new, glorious, step for this lineup focused on premium design, powerful cameras, and slim body.
Today, Vivo presents the Vivo V30 which takes the crown as Vivo’s slimmest smartphone with a 5,000 mAh battery. Vivo made this phone thin and didn’t sacrifice the battery capacity. The phone also comes with multiple color options and an upgraded Studio-Qualtiy Aura Light Portrait feature. Keeping this lineup’s focus on cameras, the Vivo V30 is capable of capturing effortless portrait shoots, ensuring great photos for your best moments. The phone also comes with a gorgeous display for an immersive experience.
Vivo V30 Raises the Bar of Photography in the Series with Upgraded Aura Light
“V series has always been synonymous with a light and simple aesthetic, a characteristic that is amplified with Vivo’s groundbreaking innovations in both design and portrait photography. In a true feat of product engineering, V30 has fitted a 5000 mAh (TYP) large battery in the signature slim frame, ensuring long battery life and unique style,” said Yongduan Zhou, General Manager of Overseas Products. “We have also upgraded the Aura Light Portrait feature, a truly powerful tool to help users easily capture stunning portraits, even in challenging low-light night conditions.”
The camera upgrades aim to deliver studio-like precision for users when capturing photos in complex moments. The new Aura Light flash comes to improve the situation in problematic scenarios like those with low light.
The light-emitting area is 19 times larger and 50 times softer than a standard LED flash. It allows the camera sensor to capture vivid details without compromising color accuracy. There is also a Smart Color Temperature Adjustment Feature that allows the device to identify and adjust the color temperature based on the subject’s surroundings.
Camera Specifications
Vivo’s new take on its Aura Light comes to aid a powerful camera combination. The smartphone comes with a dual-rear camera setup including a powerful 50 MP Ultrawide shooter with 119-FOV and Auto-Focus and a 2 MP Bokeh Camera for the Portrait Effect.
One of the interesting highlights is the 50 MP ultrawide selfie camera. Vivo’s V-series is known for bringing powerful selfie cameras and the Vivo V30 keeps the legacy. Its selfie shooter comes with a 92-degree field of view, allowing users to easily fit more people into their selfies.
Performance, Display, and Battery Capacity
Under the Hood, the Vivo V30 brings the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3. It’s Qualcomm’s hottest chipset for its intermediary chipset series. This chipset brings 1 x ARM Cortex-A715 core clocked at 2.63 GHz, 3 x ARM Cortex-A715 cores at 2.4 GHz, and 4 x ARM Cortex-A510 cores at 1.8 GHz for efficiency.
