On the front, there's a single, 32-megapixel camera. The biggest upgrade here is actually the 12-megapixel camera which has a gimbal-based optical stabilization, which should especially be felt when taking videos. The cameras are helped by Vivo's V1+ imaging chip, which takes care of AI enhancements.

One particular feature that stands out is the 3D Ultrasonic Large Fingerprint Sensor that can, according to Vivo, unlock the phone within 0.2 seconds. We haven't tried it out, but The Verge says that it makes a big difference, with a larger area you can press your fingers on, faster operation, and faster registration, with just one press. Should you want additional security, you can set the phone up to require two simultaneous fingerprint presses to unlock, a feature we've never seen on a phone before.
So many phones these days come with crappy in-display fingerprint sensors; the X80 Pro finally sounds like something we could use without complaining. Vivo was the first phone maker to ship a phone with an in-display fingerprint sensor, and it's nice to see the company still innovating here.
