BIG NEWS! vivo announced that it has signed a new joint R&D expansion agreement with ZEISS to launch Blueprint Imaging and release the X100 series equipped with Blueprint Imaging.
The data shows that vivo has been firmly in the first place in domestic mobile phone sales for three consecutive years, thanks to its deep cultivation in imaging technology, and the sales of the X100 series have contributed a lot.
This time, vivo has upgraded the X100 series again and released three new products: vivo X100s, vivo X100s Pro and vivo X100 Ultra. As the first Ultra in vivo's history, the vivo X100 Ultra is equipped with a ZEISS 200 million APO super telephoto and a one-inch gimbal-level main camera, which continues to raise the standard of mobile imaging.
vivo X100s starts at 3999 yuan, with a 7.80mm ultra-thin vertical screen design, flagship-level image experience and Dimensity 9300+ strong performance support, it has become a new representative of the vertical screen flagship in 2024. vivo X100s Pro starts at 4999 yuan; vivo X100 Ultra starts at 6499 yuan.
Self-research and co-research are explored in parallel, and a new path of moving imaging is explored
Recently, vivo and ZEISS signed a new joint R&D expansion agreement. In the future, the cooperation between the two parties will not only continue to make breakthroughs in the fields of imaging and classical optics, but also in the direction of computational optics and health imaging, vivo and Zeiss will also cooperate deeply to jointly explore the infinite possibilities of future imaging.
The blueprint image released this time, together with the previously released blue crystal chip technology stack, blue ocean battery life system, blue heart large model, and blue river operating system, has become the representative of vivo's "blue technology".
As a long-termist, vivo has invested more than 2,000 manpower and billions of R&D funds, applied for more than 7,000 patents, and launched many popular super imaging functions.
Blueprint image represents the cognition and accumulation of vivo images in key scenes, and is a collection of vivo's self-developed sensor technology, self-developed algorithms, self-developed image chips and other imaging technologies. vivo's image is an open system of self-research and co-research, as well as an integrated system of cross-field cooperation. Blueprint Imaging launched in the X100 series is exclusive to the vivo and ZEISS joint R&D product line.
The ideal state to be pursued by blueprint images is the integrated design of software and hardware of images. The new "self-developed blueprint image algorithm matrix" comprehensively builds vivo's underlying basic algorithm capabilities from three sub-modules: ultra-clear image quality, color restoration, and computing power acceleration. Equally important is the customization of the hardware. vivo and the top manufacturers in the supply chain jointly develop core devices such as sensors and modules to achieve the desired image effect. Powerful algorithms need the support of powerful computing power. vivo's self-developed image chip has evolved to the third-generation "Blueprint Image Chip V3+", which can carry more and more complex real-time algorithms and significantly reduce power consumption.
A breakthrough in both hardware and software, defining a new standard for Ultra imaging
In anticipation of Thanos of the image, vivo finale released the first Ultra in the brand's history. The vivo X100 Ultra debuted with Blueprint Imaging and brought a new flagship for mobile imaging through a two-way breakthrough in software and hardware.
The vivo X100 Ultra is equipped with a one-inch main camera that also supports gimbal-level image stabilization, and has become an industry-leading one-inch camera with "industry-exclusive precision transition technology", "industry-leading ZEISS T* coating", and "industry-leading large-angle OIS stabilization". At the same time, 1.5-degree hardware stabilization brings industry-leading video stabilization. Outside of the main camera, the telephoto is even more eye-catching. vivo X100 Ultra is equipped with Zeiss 200 million APO super telephoto, which is a telephoto camera with both ultra-high pixels and outsole, not only equipped with an industry-leading 200 million pixel jointly developed Sensor, 1/1.4" outsole telephoto, but also uses professional optical glass to improve optical performance, and the glass lens applies the same lower dispersion material FCD100 as the professional camera. In addition, it also has a number of industry breakthroughs such as the industry-leading telephoto image stabilization level CIPA4.5, and constantly refreshes the Ultra image standard.
In terms of practical results, vivo X100 Ultra continues to subvert the public's perception of mobile image telephoto, 3.7X-20X ultra-clear relay zoom can achieve approximate optical quality, can easily shoot the beautiful scenery of snow-capped mountains passing by airplanes, the cityscape across the sea, and wild animals in the depths of the wilderness. This super telephoto camera also injects more abundant telephoto photography gameplay into vivo X100 Ultra, vivo's previously popular telephoto imaging functions have been included in vivo X100 Ultra and go further, such as the "telephoto hanging sun" function that allows the beauty of the sunset hanging sun to be recorded with high quality, the "telephoto macro" function that allows the interaction between the stamen and bee insects, and the reflection in the pupils of the alpine eagle's eyes can be meticulously revealed, as well as high-speed sports, low-light portraits, polar starry sky and other functions.
This time, vivo X100 Ultra also for users who often watch concerts,Specially customized and developed the telephoto stage function,With an exclusive self-developed algorithm, it focuses on overcoming the 20-30 times telephoto stage film effect,Self-developed blueprint image chip V3+It also customizes and optimizes the concert video shooting capability,Supplemented by high-performance microphones to achieve studio-level sound recording effects,vivo starts from taking photos、Video、Recording all-round start,Vivo X100 Ultra has become a super concert artifact。 So far, vivo X100 Ultra has truly integrated vivo's "six telephoto images" functions, forming an ideal blueprint for telephoto imaging experience.
With the self-developed Blueprint image chip V3+ and vivo's integrated software and hardware imaging technology design, vivo X100 Ultra can carry more and more complex real-time algorithms and significantly reduce power consumption, achieving industry-leading 4K cinematic portrait video, 4K 120 fps shooting, and 4K 60 fps full-focus Dolby Vision shooting. Another highlight of vivo X100 Ultra's video capabilities is "stability", aiming at the needs of video shooting such as exposure, color, focus, clarity, image stabilization, fluency, etc., through a multi-party software and hardware integration design, to ensure that users can use vivo X100 Ultra to continuously and stably output high-quality videos, even for night scene videos with higher difficulty in stabilization, vivo X100 Ultra has almost no dragging, stable and pure, and the video ability is unrivaled in the Android camp.
This time, vivo X100 Ultra also brings a humanistic street photography camera mode, selecting24mm, 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm five major humanistic street photography focal lengths, including vivo bright colors, Zeiss natural colors, and vivo texture colors, and exclusively launched a new black and white color, bringing a more street documentary feeling. In addition, vivo X100 Ultra continues the full-range portrait advantages of the X100 series, and further upgrades the 85mm high-pixel close-up through ZEISS 200 million APO super telephoto and vivo's self-developed portrait algorithm to create ultra-high-definition portrait works. vivo has been exploring the boundaries of mobile imaging, expanding greater photography freedom for users, and innovating leading experiences such as diving photography, AI visual effects, and 3D photography, making vivo X100 Ultra a veritable mobile imaging flagship.
