Vivo has launched its latest smartphone, the Vivo V50e, in India as promised. The new V50e arrives with a 50MP selfie camera, an ultra-slim quad-curved display and a range of AI features. The phone offers up to 256GB of storage, a large 5600mAh battery and waterproof ratings. Here’s everything you need to know about the affordable Vivo V50e.
Display
The Vivo V50e features a large 6.77-inch (17.2 cm) FHD+ AMOLED curved display that renders videos and images vividly. The screen supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and reaches up to 1800 nits of peak brightness, with a pixel density of 388 ppi. The display delivers vibrant colour and sharp visuals, and the handset includes HDR10+ support and Widevine L1 certification.
Design
Vivo has given the V50e an attractive, premium look. It is available in two colours — Pearl White and Sapphire Blue — and the handset weighs about 186 grams. At just 7.6 mm thick, it’s thinner than many phones on the market. The curved sides make the phone comfortable to hold, and the device carries both IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.

The V50e also includes several AI camera features such as Object Remover, Translation, Circle to Search, Transcription and Image Expander.
