Vivo announced the V60 in August 2025 as its upper mid-range phone for people who take a lot of portraits. The big addition over earlier V models is a 50MP periscope camera with 3x optical zoom, backed by a 6,500mAh battery and a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip.

Why buy the Vivo V60
- A real zoom lens at this price. The 3x periscope camera keeps faces sharp from across a room, which helps at graduations, church events and family gatherings where you cannot get close.
- Battery that outlasts a long day. 6,500mAh is a big cell for a phone this slim, and 90W charging refills it quickly when you do run low.
- Handles dust and water. IP68 and IP69 ratings mean rain, splashes and dusty roads are not a worry.
- Sharp selfies. The 50MP front camera has autofocus and shoots 4K, so video calls and selfie clips look clean.
- Four Android upgrades. Vivo promises up to four major updates, so the phone stays current for several years.

Verdict: The V60 is the better phone and, at Avechi right now, the cheaper one. It adds a periscope zoom camera, a bigger battery, a newer chip and an extra Android upgrade. Choose the V50 only if you need 512GB of storage, since neither phone takes a memory card.
Other phones to consider
- Vivo V70 5G (from KSh 74,199): the newer V model, with Android 16, faster UFS 4.1 storage and a smaller 6.59″ body.
- Xiaomi 15T 5G (KSh 57,499): about the same money, with a Dimensity 8400-Ultra chip and Leica-tuned cameras including a 2x telephoto.
- Google Pixel 9a (from KSh 53,999): a cheaper option for simple, reliable point-and-shoot photos and clean Android.
- Vivo V50 5G (KSh 62,799): if 512GB of storage matters more than a zoom lens.
