Why It Matters
Vivo and Zeiss have long-term cooperation in the imaging field. The X500 series is its flagship product line. This time it focuses on dynamic shooting and anti-shake improvements.
Vivo has officially released its new generation of imaging flagship X500 series mobile phones, including X500, X500 Pro, and the first-ever X500 Pro Max. It continues to deepen its imaging cooperation with Zeiss. This time, vivo not only works hard in the field of photography that it is good at, but also brings dynamic video to the main stage. The main focus is to produce blockbuster-level images that "look straight out of a movie" without having to go through complicated post-production.
The X500 series mobile phones focus on dynamic shooting upgrades. The X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max are equipped with the "Blueprint Photonics 900" flagship sensor jointly developed by vivo and Sony. It features an ultra-high dynamic range of 17EV and an extremely low readout noise of 0.75e. It can still retain complete light and dark levels even when the light is backlit. Working together with the image algorithm, it further extends the advantage of "clear even in backlight" from taking pictures to recording, and can still maintain rich details under complex light. The new machine supports 4K 240fps movie-level slow-motion recording and 8K native Live dynamic photos, which not only makes the moments captured more vivid, but also greatly expands the space for daily short films and community creations. It also provides 6 new cinematic color styles and "movie modes", which can quickly present image effects with a more cinematic atmosphere even without complicated post-production.

Whether it is shooting while walking, travel records, or dynamic scenes such as concerts and sports events, it can reduce the impact of screen shake and easily shoot smooth videos. Behind the high-definition shooting is the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro chip and the self-developed V3+ and VS1 dual-image chip combined computing core, allowing users to easily complete the process from pressing the shutter to completing the work with just one mobile phone.
The vivo X500 Pro Max is equipped with strong anti-shake, so it can still maintain stable images while taking pictures while walking with the phone.
