If I've learned one thing about Vivo's X series, it's that the brand likes to switch things up with every generation. The last few models featured a unique gimbal stabilization tech that Vivo touted heavily, but you won't find that on the X90 Pro. The phone instead leverages on a large sensor and other imaging tweaks to differentiate itself from its predecessors. What's unchanged is the collaboration with Zeiss; Vivo continues to partner with the German optics giant, and there are a few new things on offer this time around.
The X90 Pro also sees the introduction of MediaTek's Dimensity 9200 platform. I liked what MediaTek did last year with the Dimensity 9000 and was keen to take a look at this year's offering. With Qualcomm delivering one of its best chipsets in the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, MediaTek had to nail the details to challenge Qualcomm in the high-end category.
