Within the large module, there is a small circular area that contains three lenses and a Carl Zeiss logo.

On the front of this upcoming model is a display with a centrally aligned cutout for the front camera.

An earlier report had claimed that the Vivo X80 Pro+ could feature a 50-megapixel GN1 primary sensor, a 48-megapixel Sony IMX598-based ultra-wide camera, a 12-megapixel portrait sensor, and an 8-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.

Another recent report also suggested that the Vivo X80 series smartphones will be powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9000-series SoCs.
