Starting May 22, the vivo X60 will be available in stores nationwide for P34,999. The new phone promises to take mobile photography to a new level in terms of night, motion, and portrait photography.

New users can expect stellar night shots using X60's Extreme Night Vision 2.0. This feature helps users recreate million shades of night with a single tap, producing high-quality low-light shots with an innovative AI noise reduction algorithm that was previously only available on advanced lenses in professional cameras.

The X60 also utilizes a VIS 5-axis video stabilization technology which allows users to get clear shots of moving subjects with ultra-HD quality. Adding to this groundbreaking feature in motion photography is Pro Sports, one of the instant scene modes that capture moving objects with sharp accuracy. The other scene modes include the HDR Super Night Portrait, Ultra-Wide Night Mode, Super Pano, Kids Snapshot, Multi-Style Portrait, Long Exposure Mode, and Super Moon, among others.

The main tool behind the vivo X60's photography capabilities lies in its vivo-ZEISS co-engineered system. The flagship phone has three rear cameras: a 48-megapixel main camera, 13-megapixel macro camera, and 13-megapixel bokeh camera. It also has a 32-megapixel front camera.

Helping make these groundbreaking camera features perform at best is the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 870 processor. To accelerate its speed further, the X60 also comes with UFS 3.1 ultrafast flash memory to meet demands for run time and storage.

For a more seamless daily experience, the X60 boasts a 120Hz refresh rate which allows for effortless scrolling and viewing. It also has a 240Hz response rate which induces an ultra-responsive touch screen to optimize user performance in gaming or occupational capacities.

Adding to its premium factor is the ZEISS logo embellished on the lens with the ZEISS Vario-Tessar trademark engraved beneath the cameras. All of these features are packed in a slim design with sleek form, available in Midnight Black and Shimmer Blue colors.

The X60 is now available in vivo stores nationwide and on Lazada and Shopee for P34,999.
