At the Exynos 1080 launch event, Samsung revealed that vivo participated in the joint development of the chipset and will be the first to launch a phone powered by the Exynos 1080. On December 16, vivo confirmed that the X60 series will feature the Samsung Exynos 1080 chipset.
As a high-end chipset, the Samsung Exynos 1080 uses the latest 5nm EUV FinFET process and features Cortex-A78 cores and a Mali-G78 GPU. Compared to the 7nm process, the 5nm process of the Exynos 1080 increases the number of transistors by over 80%, enabling more powerful performance and lower power consumption.
The Exynos 1080 also integrates a 5G NSA/SA dual-mode modem that supports 5G NR Sub-6, millimeter wave, and other frequency bands, with a maximum download speed of up to 5.1Gbps, enabling broader network coverage. This is the second mobile chipset jointly developed by Vivo and Samsung since the two became partners, following the Exynos 980.
In addition, the Exynos 1080 supports a 120Hz refresh rate, 2K resolution, 10-bit video recording, a 200MP CMOS sensor, six cameras, Wi-Fi 6, UFS 3.1 storage, and LPDDR5 memory.
Yesterday, vivo announced the vivo X60 series, featuring the second-generation gimbal and Zeiss optical lenses, and it is expected to be released on December 29.
