Vivo Launches Nextgen V2 Chip With Ultra Zoom EIS Support, Zerolatency Photo Capture Ahead Of X90 Series Launch
Vivo released the Image Signal Processor (ISP) V2 before the launch of the Vivo X90 series. The V2 will follow in the footsteps of the V1 and V1 Plus, bringing some camera-focused features to Vivo's next-gen flagship phones, most likely the X90, X90 Pro and X90 Pro Plus. At least one of these phones will be powered by MediaTek's new Dimensity 9200 chip.
Vivo's internal V-series chips offer "visual" improvements for night photography, as well as improved display and gaming. It can be said that its 360 degree meaning covers all the important areas of a smartphone such as screen, performance and cameras. These chips have proven themselves in real-world use in phones like the Vivo X80 Pro. The V2, which is essentially Vivo's third such chip, should do the trick.
In terms of key features, the V2 seems to have two major advantages: Ultra Zoom EIS support and lag-free image capture. The first is an algorithm - based on Vivo's ultra-clear picture quality engine - that combines IMU, OIS and EIS to deliver better, more consistent zoom capabilities without loss of detail, Vivo claims. Phone cameras with the V2 chip will also be able to take pictures faster - than before - once the user presses the shutter button.
Vivo's image composition feature called RawEnhance also gets an update to version 2.0 with V2 for better low-light photography.
Elsewhere, the V2 features an SRAM (Stable Random Access Memory) cache, which Vivo claims can reduce power consumption by 99% compared to traditional external memory. The improvements in overall efficiency are evident.
The new chip has been pretty much confirmed in Vivo's upcoming X90 series of phones, so we probably won't have to wait long to see it in action. Stay in touch to find out more.
