When vivo released the X80 mobile phone half a year ago, some netizens commented on IT Home :
X80 is the most popular domestic model at present.
is indeed the case. Since its official launch in April this year, in the price range of 3,500 to 5,000 yuan, the sales and share of vivo X80 mobile phone products are both the first, and are twice the second place. Not only that, the X80 is also the flagship phone with the highest value retention rate in the Android camp in 2022.
X80 Where is the fragrance? The author believes that it can be simply summarized into two points:
1, which is equally treated by Qualcomm and MediaTek platforms, and there is no configuration difference due to platform differences.
2 is in the 3K-4K gear, which almost all the configurations should be fully filled, including video and X-axis motors and other competitors, which are easy to see the configuration of Yida, so that people can choose from it.
Of course, the protagonist of this article is not the X80 mobile phone, but its successor, X90. However, there is a question before many people. Since X80 is so delicious, does X90 still have room for upgrade?
At the vivo press conference on November 22, vivo gave its own answer - X90, which is even more delicious.
This time, vivo X90 naturally won the first launch of Dimensity 9200. At the same time, the first launches include UFS4.0+MCQ multi-cycle queue combination, VCS bionic spectrum, BOE Q9 light emitting devices, and self-developed V2 imaging chips, and the first self-developed FIT technology... Such as X-axis linear motors, all-scene NFC, stereo dual aerodynamics, infrared and other configurations are also available, and even the standard rare IP64-level waterproof and dustproof, X90 also has it this time.
Of course, the unchanged price is still starting at 3699 yuan.
So, what is the actual experience of vivo X90? How to interpret the fragrance again?
Currently IT Home has obtained the vivo X90 in 12GB+512GB to black color matching. Let’s find out with you through the review experience.
1. Design article
First of all, in terms of color matching, vivo X90 brings three color matching, Huaxia red, ultimate black and ice blue, and IT Home got the ultimate black version.
In terms of design technology, the "blackest" adopts fluorite AG technology. Although it is not jumping black, it is still full of visual impact. Under the light, the black body will even flash with starlight, and the pure black glass becomes exquisite and dazzling, with a bit of restraint in its brilliance.
In terms of touch, the fluorite AG process also brings a delicate and silky excellent feel, and it is difficult to leave fingerprint sweat stains.
In the CMF design of the whole machine, according to the official description, the shape of the vivo X90 series is inspired by the rising sun, the skyline and the earth when the morning light is first shining. The entire camera area rises from the skyline, shaping the moving sunrise moment. The vivo X90 incorporates all cameras into a "big eyes". The entire module is slightly raised on the body. At the junction of the "big eyes" and the rear shell, vivo also transitions the abrupt feeling of the camera module through a frosted metal Halo ring. These ingenious designs that are hard to capture at first glance are everywhere on this phone.
On the right side of the camera is the Zeiss logo. Upwards, it is the text logo of the camera specifications and the vertical striped fill light. Below the
camera, the biggest highlight of vivo X90's design - the ribbon cloud stairs.
vivo X90 is completely reconstructed and designed based on the golden ratio division, and clearly divides the camera area and the grip area of the mobile phone. The metal-like waist seal design of
gives vivo X90 a very unique recognition and a high-end feel.
Many readers think that this "ribbon cloud staircase" is a bit abrupt when they see the rendered image, but vivo X90 is a product that is "real machine pictures are better than rendered image series". When I get the real machine, it balances the visual design of the whole machine. When you see the back of the phone, this "cloud staircase" will be visually guided. You will involuntarily notice the existence of this part, and the entire circular camera module that was originally placed on the left can achieve a more balanced and coordinated visual effect against the backdrop of this "cloud staircase".
Ribbon cloud steps are also printed with the words Xtreme Imagination / vivo-ZEISS co-engineered, and the entire cloud steps adopt ribbon lithography technology, with a strong ceramic texture, forming a very obvious light-matte contrast with the fluorite AG process on the body. Moreover, when you hold the phone in your right hand, the index finger is placed on this "cloud step". The "oil and damping feeling" it has will be clearly separated from the "silky" sense of AG glass on the body, and the touch feel will immediately become richer.
all say that the good design is to do subtraction, but the ribbon cloud stairs added to the vivo X90 series can be said to be the finishing touch of the CMF design of the entire mobile phone. I have to admire the skills of the blue factory designers. In terms of body size, the measurement data ratio of vivo X90 is 164.10 × 74.44 × 8.48mm (to black/ice blue), and the weight is just 200g, which is not light, but the texture is very sufficient.
returns to the front.
vivo X90 is the first to be equipped with a 6.78-inch BOE Q9 super retinal eye protection screen, with 2160Hz PWM high-frequency dimming, supports GSG eye protection certification, HDR10+, etc.
front camera is centered, it is a 32-megapixel GD2 with an f/2.45 aperture.
This screen uses a new generation of luminescent materials, with a peak brightness of 1300nit, and a new blue diamond arrangement, with an pixel density of up to 452ppi. vivo also designed a new eye protection solution with triple software, hardware and chips.
In addition, the screen color style has also added the "Zeiss Natural Color" mode, which can accurately restore natural colors from the front end of the shooting to the back end of the display.
2. Performance
vivo X90 first launched MediaTek Dimensity 9200, supplemented by self-developed imaging chip V2, provides four storage versions: 8GB+128GB, 8GB+256GB, 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, and UFS4.0+MCQ octa-core 8 channels and LPDDR5 four channels specifications. 8GB+128GB is UFS3.1+MCQ octa-core 8 channels and LPDDR5 four channels.
battery is equivalent to 4810mAh, 120W dual-core flash charging, and other configurations include X-axis linear motor, full-scene NFC, stereo dual speakers, IP64-level waterproof and dustproof, etc.
Not only that, vivo X90 and MediaTek have in-depth research and development of 5 large chip technologies:
MCQ Multi-cycle queue: 8-core and eight-channel, reading and writing speed is greatly improved, and CPU performance is fully utilized;
AIxModem perception Search Network AI engine: greatly improves the networking and search speed in different places;
APU Deep optimization: offline voice input method power consumption is optimized, and performance is greatly improved;
MAGT Adaptive picture quality mode first release: actual test king 120 frame rate + Extreme picture quality, not only the frame rate is close to full frame, but it can run for an hour, and the power consumption can also be reduced by 18%;
Intelligent blue light reduction technology: frame-by-frame analysis, frame-by-frame adjustment, balance screen eye protection effect and color accuracy.
Briefly talk about MediaTek Dimensity 9200.
This is the latest flagship SoC of Fa Gejia, and it is also the industry's first processor that uses TSMC's second-generation 4nm process, integrating 17 billion transistors. In terms of architecture, it is equipped with 3.05GHz Cortex-X3 super-large cores, 3 2.85GHz A715 large cores, and 4 1.8GHz A510 small cores. The super-large cores and large cores all support pure 64-bit applications.
official test said that Dimensity 9200 has a single-core performance improvement of 12% compared to the GeekBench 5 CPU of Dimensity 9000, a multi-core performance improvement of 10%, and a cooling capacity improvement of 10%, and a power consumption reduction of up to 25% under the same performance.In terms of GPU, it is equipped with the Immortalis-G715 flagship GPU and supports mobile hardware ray tracing technology.
Let’s take a look at the running scores of vivo X90.
is first Antutu. The overall score of vivo X90 is 1221494, of which the CPU is 277085 points and the GPU is 510197 points, which is the theoretical achievement that Dimensity 9200 should have.
as a comparison, Antutu's running score of Dimensity 9000 remained at around 1 million +. The difference is 200,000 points, and the performance improvement is very obvious.
GeekBench 5 running scores, vivo X90 single core 1408 points, multi-core 4428, and the performance is also very outstanding. The score is basically close to the Dimensity 9200 engineering machine actually tested by IT Home.
20 consecutive rounds of 3D Mark Wild Life, the stability of vivo X90 reached 77.6%, and its performance was slightly better than Dimensity 9000, which was above the upstream level. From this, it can also be simply judged that the performance training of vivo X90 is relatively "radical".
Let’s take a look at the storage test.
UFS4.0+MCQ eight-core and eight-channel support, vivo X90 actually achieved a reading score of up to 4110MB/s in Androbench, and its writing score reached 2665MB/s, far exceeding the USF3.1’s 1800MB/s. In the storage test of Antutu, the score reached 130,000+, setting the highest score in the IT Home Evaluation Room.
is UFS4.0 after all. It seems that with the popularity of UFS4.0 mobile phones in the future, the reading score of 4110MB/s should be in the normal state. vivo X90 obviously has a good start. In terms of
charging, vivo X90 is equivalent to 4810mAh battery with 120W dual-core flash charging. The ultra-fast mode only takes 8 minutes to charge to 50%, and it takes about 28 minutes to fully charge.
Next, let’s take a look at the game performance of vivo X90.
IT Home selected the highest quality "Genshin Impact" for 30 minutes of actual testing.
or the old rules.
vivo X90 resolution default, performance mode is turned on, the highest image quality is heavy on "Genshin Impact", the image quality is full high, dynamic blur is turned off, the scene is selected for outdoor running pictures + fight monsters, and the battle scenes account for about half of the time. The test results of
show that the average frame rate of vivo X90 is 59.3fps.
As shown in the figure above, in the 30-minute "Genshin Impact" game, vivo X90 does not have a frame lock. When encountering a battle scene, the frame rate will generally drop to 55fps, and there are few cliff-like frame drops. After all,
is the first Dimensity 9200, so naturally there is no core scheduling analysis. Let’s take a look at the core diagram:
As shown in the above figure, in the 30-minute game, it is a high-load scenario. The four A510s of vivo X90 basically have no effort (the green box above). The main efforts are Cortex-X3 super-large core and three A715 large cores. Cortex-X3 super-large cores have been exerted, but they have not fully exerted force. Most of the time it fluctuates between 1.2Ghz and 2.5Ghz. Under the training of
, vivo X90 also brings relatively excellent "low power consumption". For example, in the "Genshin Impact" game, the average power consumption of vivo X90 is only 5.8W (2.689*2), which is about 7W of Snapdragon 8Gen1.
So, the heating performance of vivo X90 is also relatively excellent. IT Home measured that the maximum temperature of vivo X90 reached 41°C, concentrated on the top of the screen. The fever performance of
is relatively excellent among a number of flagship phones. Of course, it may be related to the winter weather of Qingdao in early November. On the other hand, there is also a direct relationship between the 4313mm² wide-area heat-super plate that the vivo X90 itself has. After all, if you have such a large heat dissipation board , it will really not give physics a face if it is hot.
In addition, the V2 chip built-in of vivo X90 can also be used as a frame insertion game chip. In the game "Genshin Impact", it provides the function of increasing the frame rate. In this mode, the GPU of Dimensity 9200 only needs to render 45 frames, and then doubles the frame rate through V2 on the basis of 45 frames to achieve a game effect similar to 90 frames.
Before interpolated frames, the GPU needs to render 60 frames, and after interpolated frames, the GPU only needs to render 45 frames, so theoretically, the power consumption after interpolated frames is reduced. This part of IT Home has tested this many times in previous vivo reviews, so I won’t go into details here.
3. Images
vivo X90 has more highlights than Dimensity 9200, but also the flagship Zeiss imaging system.
is first of all, in terms of hardware specifications, and it is still the combination of IMX866+IMX663+IMX663, which has not changed from the previous generation.
However, here we will talk about it.
On the X90, the main camera of IMX866 also has the first VCS bionic spectrum support; the 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens IMX663 is equipped with Zeiss miniature blur for the first time in the field of scenery; the 12MP IMX663 portrait lens also has Zeiss flare portrait, simulating the halo effect of Zeiss movie lens in backlight scenes.
Next, vivo X90 also has a self-developed chip V2, equipped with the new self-developed MEMC, AI NR, and HDR Tone Mapping algorithms, which can greatly improve the real-time AI noise reduction and HDR fusion effect of original image information.
About v2, the author will not specify the chip. Interested friends can click this article to learn about it:
"vivo releases the second generation of self-developed imaging chip V2, which can be synchronized with Dimensity 9200 Internet within 1/100 seconds"
VCS bionic spectroscopy technology is necessary to have a good chat. It is mainly used to improve the innovation of color filter (Color Filter) materials, further restore the color information reception of the human eye, achieve a 20% increase in signal-to-noise ratio and a 15% increase in color restoration.
real shot sample:
Note: Uploaded samples are compressed, shooting is not specified, all are default settings (default AI is on, automatic HDR, Zeiss natural color is turned off)
as far as daytime samples are concerned, vivo X90 By default, the photos directly exposed are accurately exposed and have a very good grasp of colors. Although they are more "memory color" training, they are also a cool and bright appearance. The red brick walls and green plants are slightly brighter than in reality, but they are definitely not the kind of "fake red" or "fake green".
On the other hand, whether it is the main camera, portrait or ultra-wide angle, the colors of the three cameras are surprisingly consistent, and there is no color shift problem caused by camera switching, which is indeed a surprise.
Third, in some highlights, it will present a dynamic range, and the light and dark details are handled very well, such as the picture below (local enlargement), the sun is directly shining on the glass, and the glass is warm and golden at this time, which is actually slightly dazzling when viewed with the naked eye, but in vivo X90, this part is treated with a very textured texture, making the photos look three-dimensional.
. The fourth point is to name and praise the vivo X90's view frame, which can basically achieve "what you see is what you shoot". The entire Android camp, the vivo X90's view frame performance should be the closest to iPhone.
This will be better presented in night shooting. For example, in the picture below, what does the view frame look like, and the photos taken are basically the same. In terms of night view, vivo 90 is still obvious. With the support of Zeiss T*, even in the darkest environment, the picture can be transparent and clean, and there is very little noise.
Secondly, the high-light suppression ability and anti-glare ability are excellent. The shooting rate of urban light sources is very high.
However, the ultra-wide-angle lens is a bit difficult in this environment. The resolution of 12 million is slightly dragging the back legs, and there are easy marks of smear at the edges. However, in terms of this level, this performance is also satisfactory.
Next, let’s talk about the author’s favorite place of vivo images - portrait.
This should be the third time that I have "blowed" vivo portraits in the review, but that's the case. After all, there are independent portrait lenses and unique Zeiss lens packages. From the hardware perspective alone, looking at the entire Android camp, it is rare for other major manufacturers to stick to 50mm portrait lenses for a long time, besides vivo.
This time, the portrait lens equipped with vivo X90 is IMX663. It’s an old friend of Blue Factory, so there’s no need to say more about running in. This time, the Blue Factory has not added a brand new Zeiss flare portrait for this old friend, which simulates Zeiss' classic movie lens, making halo vivid.
person decent sample:
In terms of visual appearance, the color of the Zeiss Flare portrait is warmer, there is a clear rainbow pattern on the sample, and the position will change with the change of the light source on the back, which is very high-end texture and humanistic atmosphere.
The other Zeiss lens bags are also good, such as Zeiss Cinematic, Zeiss Biotar, Zeiss Distagon, etc. Those who like to take portraits strongly recommend trying the vivo X90 series mobile phones.
In addition, vivo X90 optimizes the sports capture ability, and can be instantly frozen in sports mode, such as capturing green leaves swaying in the breeze. After enlargement, the texture and branches of the leaves are still clear. The new Zeiss miniature blur added to the
vivo X90 series is also very interesting. In this mode, you can easily achieve "God's Perspective" and miniature landscape effects.
4. System
vivo X90 is also first equipped with OriginOS 3 system, such as the "unfair scheduling" that solves the lag problem caused by insufficient front-end resources in a multi-task environment; the on-site resurrection mechanism can ensure that the background application can quickly return to its previous state when it is started. IT Home has conducted in-depth experience in the article "OriginOS 3 System In-depth Experience". Interested friends can click on the relevant article to learn about it.
measured in-situ resurrection mechanism. Use Youku as a test application, play videos normally, and then open 40 apps in succession. In this case, most mobile phone backgrounds have "killed" Youku. Under OriginOS 3 system, after opening 40 apps, switch back to Youku. At this time, Youku still retained the movie viewing progress at that time.
OriginOS 3 has been upgraded around the "small window" function. For example, in the split screen state of the application, it supports calling up the application window, that is, three applications can be opened at the same time on one screen.
game horizontal window is also very interesting.
For example, if you want to play mobile games in your spare time, you find that you need hot updates after opening them, such as Moba games, and there is a certain waiting time after death. For players, these waiting times are undoubtedly quite "torment". With the game horizontal window, you can completely turn the game into a "horizontal window", and then do whatever you should do. After the game is restarted, click to enter the full screen to play.
In terms of functionality, OriginOS 3 also has an intelligent sidebar that can recommend AI capabilities based on scenarios, and the industry's first screen reading 3.0 that can continuously read information, etc.
is written at the end:
After a period of experience, vivo X90 brings the author the greatest feeling, redefines the "standard version of flagship" . Although this is a standard model and is even called a "small cup" in the X90 family, the product strength it shows is just like vivo officially promotes - is both a standard model and a ceiling .
Whether it is the excellent training of Dimensity 9200, the imaging capabilities jointly developed by Zeiss, and even screens, designs and other aspects, it is difficult for vivo X90 to make people pick out the points of complaints. It has to be said that vivo X90 will continue to continue the glory of its predecessors and become an extremely competitive product in the entire high-end flagship mobile phone market for the next period of time.
Faced with the aggressive vivo X90, the author is not able to say whether the author is panicked. However, to a certain extent, the definition threshold of vivo X90 has raised the "standard" mobile phone a lot. As consumers, we must benefit.
Finally, if you hold a 3K-4K budget and have the intention to buy a new phone, then the vivo X90 is a very worthwhile choice. Even if you don’t have a big budget, such as a maximum budget of 3.5K, then the author strongly recommends that you fill in “a little” and go directly to the X90 step.
Of course, friends who have a sufficient budget and pursue the ultimate image also have vivo X90 Pro+.
Starting from the X30 series, the X series began to emphasize the flagship imaging strength of the full focal segment. After the continuous evolution of X50, X60, and X70, the vivo X series has now become a well-deserved high-end imaging flagship in the current smartphone market.
is a little emotional. When it comes to the vivo X series a few years ago, I am a little "reluctant" to mention the vivo X series, but today, the vivo X mobile phone has become one of the first products I recommend. The X series, which has degenerated during growth, is actually a microcosm of vivo's high-end breakthrough.
