Just days after key details about the Vivo V50 Elite Edition were leaked, Vivo has now officially confirmed the phone’s existence and its India launch date.

Vivo V50 Elite Edition to Launch in India on May 15 with Zeiss Cameras and Unique Design

The Vivo V50 Elite Edition is scheduled to launch in India on May 15th, Thursday, at 12 noon. While Vivo’s teaser through its official X account highlights the back of the device engraved with “Elite Edition.” Disseminating instead of pill-shaped camera modules like we saw with the current V50 series, it looks like this device will feature a circular Island Camera Design. The cameras on this model will apparently also be co-engineered with Zeiss, and that seems to suggest a strong emphasis on improved imaging.

The teaser also emphasizes that the V50 Elite Edition offers more than just a regular smartphone experience, with a focus on immersive audio and standout portrait photography.

While Vivo has yet to unveil the full list of specifications, the wait for more details won’t be long, as the launch is just around the corner. Based on existing reports, the Vivo V50 Elite Edition is expected to share many specifications with the standard Vivo V50.

The V50 features a 6.77-inch Full HD+ curved AMOLED display featuring a 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support, along with an in-display fingerprint sensor. It houses a triple camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP front camera for selfies.

The V50 runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset, while the more affordable V50e uses the Dimensity 7300 processor. Powering the V50 is a 6,000mAh battery that supports 90W fast charging. Pricing for the Vivo V50 starts at ₹34,999, and the V50e is available from ₹28,999.
