Vivo has started teasing the India launch of its flagship X90 series phones. We can expect the company to launch the X90 and X90 Pro in the country as soon as this month, though the exact date hasn’t been confirmed at the time of writing. Both the X90 and X90 Pro were launched globally in February. The top-shelf X90 Pro Plus is a China-exclusive so far.
The India launch of the X90 series was confirmed at the time of global launch itself, but there was no word on proper timeline. While that stays true even now, Vivo has put up a dedicated product listing page announcing the imminent launch of the line-up with the tagline— coming soon. The listing makes it abundantly clear that the X90 Pro would be the hero product, so, it would be interesting to see if some surprises are in tow vis-à-vis X90 Pro Plus. Though if history is anything to go by, the X90 and X90 Pro is what we should expect largely.
