vivo X Series Development Review
In 2012, the first-generation vivo X1 was released, and at that time, it was the world’s thinnest smartphone. It was also the first smartphone to feature a Hi-Fi professional-grade chip.
In 2020, starting with the vivo X50, vivo’s high-end product iterations have been making significant strides.
In the first half of 2022, the launch of the X90 series once again solidified its position as the “5G flagship benchmark.”
The launching of the vivo X100 series also signifies the great achievement of vivo throughout the years, including technology and products, meanwhile acting as a leading-edge role.
Corporate Strength
Over the past 28 years, vivo has remained dedicated to the telecommunications industry and technological innovation. Supported by a network of R&D centers in China (mainland and Taipei), Japan (Tokyo), and the United States (San Diego), vivo always focuses on the development of cutting-edge consumer technologies, including 6G, AI, photography, industrial design, and other emerging technologies. vivo’s global team of R&D professionals exceeds 13,000, with over 43,000 patent applications and more than 400 formulation technology standards. What’s more noteworthy is that in 2022, vivo Communications Research Institute released three white papers, 6G Vision, Requirements and Challenges, Digital Life 2030+ and 6G Services, Capabilities and Enabling Technologies. vivo’s self-developed multimodal integration heralds the arrival of the 6G era.
Furthermore, vivo has established a smart manufacturing network, which includes centers authorized by vivo, with an annual production capacity of nearly 200 million smartphones. This substantial production capacity enables vivo to meet global demand, showcasing its strength in the smartphone manufacturing sector.
In December 2020, vivo made a significant announcement at the Global Imaging Strategy Conference, officially becoming a global strategic partner with ZEISS. Additionally, both companies announced the establishment of a joint research and development team, the vivo ZEISS Joint Imaging Laboratory, serving as an innovative space and platform for their collaboration. This partnership seamlessly combines ZEISS’s exclusive expertise in optical, optoelectronic, imaging, and imaging systems with vivo’s expertise in smartphone technology, software, and system integration. vivo’s approach to this collaboration focuses on deep and multi-faceted technical cooperation to enhance smartphone photography’s “fundamental image quality” and bring professional photographers, professional cameras, and professional post-processing capabilities to everyday users. Moreover, vivo hasn’t overlooked the needs of professional users and is striving to create a truly meaningful “professional video mode” for smartphone photography, rather than a simple parameter adjustment mode. Ultimately, vivo’s goal is to simplify and systematize the photographic requirements of ordinary users, even conducting research into the varied photography demands and preferences of different demographics worldwide, to craft an imaging system that satisfies a broader audience.
In terms of security and reliability, adhering to the management concept of “quality is the baseline of products”, vivo continues to optimize the quality management system, implement strict product quality standards, and effective product safety management. vivo established a new Regulatory Compliance Laboratory in 2022 to strengthen radiation safety testing capability on products. vivo has obtained the first SAR Certificate in China, which proved that vivo had been recognized by the authority in terms of radiation safety of mobile phones. Also, vivo is the first in the mobile phone industry to obtain the CEIV Certificate for safe battery transportation. In 2022, vivo officially released the kMirror Trusted Engine to enhance users’ product safety experience with innovative technologies.
