vivo has officially launched the newest addition to its V lineup which features the Aura Portrait Algorithm: the vivo V27 series.
The new lineup offers two variants: the vivo V27 5G, and vivo V27e. They boast the Aura Portrait Algorithm, a first-of-its-kind technology that will elevate users’ mobile photography game with a studio-level experience right in their hands. Dubbed as The Aura Portrait Master, vivo encourages its fans to radiate their best aura anytime and anywhere with their very own pocket studio.
Capture Studio-Level Photos Effortlessly

The new series is packed with a new innovation in smartphone imaging technology. Both variants carry vivo’s latest breakthrough: the Aura Portrait Algorithm technology. It covers three aspects in the light and imaging processing journey. First is the Aura Light, a built-in ring light that serves as an extra light source, but with a smoother and more delicate effect compared to regular phone camera flash.
Second aspect in this camera system is the 50MP OIS Ultra Sensing main camera, particularly in the vivo V27 5G. It is powered by a Sony IMX766V sensor, a first in vivo’s V series. This flagship sensor has an ultra-large 1/1.56” sensor size, allowing 145% more light intake for a stronger picture quality. Meanwhile, the vivo V27e has a 64MP OIS Ultra Sensing Camera and Super Night View capability to capture high definition and vivid images.
Lastly, this upgrade includes a perfect synergy between hardware and software with vivo’s full and exclusive line of Portrait Algorithms. All three aspects complete the Aura Portrait Algorithm feature of the series. It intelligently adjusts the lighting according to the environment, perfect for capturing studio quality images for portrait shooting day and night.
Vlogging Made Easier and More Fun
The new V series comes with an EIS+OIS Dual Ultra Stabilization feature. This imaging system allow users to shoot videos in the most stable way, even without extra tools like gimbals.
vivo has also ensured that users can shoot high-quality videos whether with the rear or front cameras. This is thanks to the V27 5G’s 50MP Eye AF Vlogging camera, and the V27e’s 32MP Vlogging lens. Moreover, the series also has a Microfilm feature. This serves as a one stop solution where users can edit vlogs with just a few clicks, access 26 effect templates for free, use built-in professional standard video enhancement software, and enjoy hassle-free vlog making experience.
Premium Design without Compromising Comfort


The new V series also sport new colorways that can easily match the user’s every style and aesthetic. The V27 5G exudes sophistication with the Emerald Green colorway boosted with vivo’s signature photochromic 2.0 technology design. Meanwhile, the V27e is available in eye-catching Lavender Purple created through vivo’s photolithography process, and Glory Black partnered with glittering fluorite AG effect.
On top of the stylish colorways, both variants also boast a slim and smooth frame for a comfortable grip. The V27 5G has a 7.36mm 3D-Curved Screen, the thinnest curved screen in the history of the V series. While the V27e has a 7.7mm thin flat frame.
Powerful Flagship Performance
Inside the vivo V27 5G’s slim and compact body is a MediaTek D7200 4nm chipset. It supports Dual-Mode 5G and Dual 5G Standby to balance performance and power consumption. The series also offers a bigger update with the help of vivo’s Extended RAM 3.0, which supports up to 8GB RAM extension. Both variants are also packed with 256GB storage so users can store as many files as they want.

The series also takes its user’s productivity to the next level with its all-day battery. It has a double life span that can handle up to 1,600 charge cycles. It is also boosted with a 66W FastCharge feature to quickly recharge the phone’s power from 0% to 50% in just 19 minutes.
