The vivo V50 5G
In today’s world, where we’re often documenting our lives, surroundings or even news on social media, smartphone photography is often the first way we capture and share life’s meaningful moments.
Whether you’re shooting for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok or even Facebook, you need a phone that raises the bar for mobile creating.
The launch of the vivo V50 5G creates just that. Co-engineered with ZEISS, a global leader in professional optics, the V50 arrives in Kenya to bring studio-quality portrait photography right into your pocket.
ZEISS. Portrait so
pro.
Whether you’re a digital creator, photographer, or just someone who loves telling stories through visuals, the V50 delivers powerful creative tools, all packed into a sleek, affordable smartphone. It’s about capturing your story with clarity, depth, and style.
At the core of the V50 is its standout feature: the 50 MP “All Main Camera” system, designed with ZEISS to deliver consistent, high-quality images across every lens.
Whether you’re shooting with the ultra-wide, telephoto, or front-facing camera, the V50 delivers pro-level sharpness, color accuracy, and depth. This camera is built for story tellers.
Key camera highlights include:
• 50 MP ZEISS All Main Camera: A 1/1.55” sensor that captures more light, even in dark settings. With optical image stabilization and a built-in mini gimbal, handheld night shots are clear and shake-free.
• 119° Ultra-Wide Lens: Perfect for capturing wide landscapes or big group shots — without distortion.
• 50 MP Front Camera: With a 92° wide-angle lens
and AI 3D Studio Lighting 2.0, your selfies stay sharp and well-lit, even
against harsh backlight.
It’s not just about the megapixels. It’s how vivo blends software, optics, and processing — a harmony where ZEISS truly makes its mark.
Portrait photography is where the V50 truly shines. With ZEISS Multifocal Portrait, users can choose from three professional-level focal lengths:
• 23 mm for wide, environmental portraits
• 35 mm for lifestyle and street photography
• 50 mm for traditional close-up
shots
Each focal length is paired with one of seven ZEISS Style Bokeh effects, recreating the soft, background blur of high-end DSLR lenses — including artistic classics like Biotar and Planar.
The result? Each photo has a distinct mood and signature look, enhanced by fine-tuned color grading.
For even more depth and drama, the V50 adds Rembrandt and Butterfly lighting styles — studio-inspired presets that shape shadows and highlights like a professional shoot.
No ring light? No problem. vivo’s AI Aura Light Portrait 2.0 is like having a studio in your pocket. The 143x ultra-soft fill light adapts based on your surroundings, distance, and skin tone, so you’re always shown in the best light — literally.
Whether it’s golden hour, a night out, or a cozy indoor moment, this feature ensures you’re always camera-ready, with no extra gear needed.
The V50 isn’t just for still photos — it’s a full creative suite for video lovers too. Features include:
• 4K video recording (front and back)
• Live Photo to capture motion in your moments
• Film Camera Mode for vintage-inspired color grading
• AI Image Studio for fast, on-device
editing with filters and templates
From TikTok to YouTube, the V50 empowers Kenyan creators to shoot, edit, and share professional content — all from one device.
With mobile storytelling becoming a major force in entertainment, marketing, and everyday life, with some even choosing the content creation route as a career, the V50 arrives at the perfect time.
