Design: Slim, Stylish, and Surprisingly Tough
The V60 5G nails the premium mid-range vibe at 192g (or 201g for some variants) and just 7.5mm thin, it’s slimmer and lighter than the V50 (around 8mm thick) and feels way more pocketable than the chunky S25 Ultra (218g). The quad-curved AMOLED back in Auspicious Gold has this subtle shimmer, while Moonlit Blue or Mist Grey options look classy too. The pill-shaped camera module with Aura Light ring is refined no more oversized bumps like older V series.
IP68 + IP69 rating is a big win survived high-pressure water jets and a drop in the pool (don’t try this at home!). Schott Xensation glass front shrugged off keys in my pocket. Versus X200 Pro’s leather back, V60’s glass is fingerprint-prone but easier to clean. One-handed use? Finally comfy again beats every “Pro” phone I’ve tried lately.
Display: Bright, Smooth, and Immersive
That 6.77-inch AMOLED (2392×1080, ~387 PPI) with 120Hz refresh and 5000 nits peak brightness is a stunner outdoors visibility crushes the V50’s 4500 nits, and HDR10+ makes Netflix/YouTube pop. Versus S25 Ultra’s QHD+ sharpness, V60’s warmer colors feel more vibrant for photos, but Samsung’s anti-reflective wins in direct sun. Quad-curved edges look premium, but flat on S25+ reduces accidental touches.
In-display optical fingerprint is quick (even wet), and stereo speakers with 300% volume boost are loud for calls/movies.

Performance: Snappy Mid-Range King
Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 with up to 16GB RAM + extended RAM smooth for daily tasks. AnTuTu ~1 million, Geekbench multi ~3500+. Genshin on high? 60fps steady, no major heat thanks to better cooling than V50. Versus X200 Pro’s Dimensity 9400, gap is small for non-gamers; S25 Ultra pulls ahead in heavy editing.
Funtouch OS 15 on Android 15 clean with AI features like Auto Pixelate and Ultra Volume Mode. 4 major OS + 6 years security updates best in mid-range! Versus Samsung’s 7 years, Vivo’s shorter but software less bloated. Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC all there.
Cameras: ZEISS Telephoto Makes It Special
Triple ZEISS setup: 50MP main (Sony IMX766 OIS), 50MP telephoto (IMX882, 3x optical, 10x hybrid), 8MP ultra-wide. Daylight shots sharp with natural colors, portraits with multifocal bokeh are stunning Wedding vLog mode is fun for events. Low-light with Aura Light reduces noise beautifully.
Versus V50’s no telephoto, huge upgrade for zoom portraits. Versus S25 Ultra’s 200MP + 5x, V60 loses extreme reach but wins balanced everyday shots. 50MP selfies crisp with wide FOV. Video 4K 60fps stable, but no 8K like flagships. AI Generative Edit removes objects/fills backgrounds cleanly better than V50’s basic tools.
Software and Battery: The Real MVP
Funtouch OS 15 AI: Circle to Search, Live Translate, Photo Ambient wallpapers. Battery 6500mAh BlueVolt lasts 2 days easy (6-7 hours screen heavy) beats S25 Ultra’s 5000mAh in cold weather tests. 90W FlashCharge = 50% in ~18 min, full in ~45 min. No wireless, but who cares at this price?
Price and Final Thoughts
₹36,999 launch, now ₹32,000-₹35,000 killer vs V50 (~₹30,000 used) or S25 (~₹70,000). Global spotty, but India deals everywhere.
The Vivo V60 5G is the mid-range champ of 2025 massive battery, ZEISS telephoto portraits, slim design that feels premium. Minor gripes: UFS 2.2 storage slower than flagships, no wireless charging. Versus X200 Pro, worth if saving ₹50k no big loss for most. Crushes Samsung A-series or OnePlus Nord in cameras/battery.
If you want style, endurance, and pro portraits under ₹40k this is it. 9.5/10 my “affordable flagship” pick!
