Vivo V9 AI Face Beauty: What can it do?

The secret to perfect selfies

Published

on

The V9 is Vivo’s latest smartphone release. The sleek handset sports a notched, borderless screen and a Snapdragon processor that makes it a very capable device. Yes, folks, great for your everyday social media needs! But, what else can this phone do?

Vivo’s slogan isn’t “Perfect Shot, Perfect View” for nothing! The dual rear cameras on this thing are pretty capable and you can even shoot in Pro Mode. That means you get the freedom to change camera settings as you take those photos.

But, what if you want the perfect photo without the fuss of changing all those settings? Don’t worry, Vivo’s got you.

This is where the AI Face Beauty mode comes in.

Simply tap on the Beauty Mode Settings, pick AI, and you’re all set to take the best-possible selfie without even needing to change settings. Artificial intelligence on this mode does the camera adjustments and all that’s left for you to do is strike your best pose.

All that’s left is editing! The V9’s built-in tools can take care of filters…

… and even more beauty mode tweaking.

And those AI camera adjustments? It’s based on whatever, or whomever is in front of the camera. Yep, the phone will recognize the selfie subject’s age, gender, and even skin tone. Using data gathered from one million selfie samples (that’s a lot of selfies 😱), the phone adjusts.

So yes, the camera can tell if you’re a dude and it will know not to airbrush your features too much. Expect every shot to be the “Perfect Shot,” even when you’re a guy taking a selfie!

Taken with the Vivo V9, this photo is an example of just how fresh and natural your selfies can look. Think of all the selfie possibilities!

Infinix is entering a new era — and the brand is bringing one of K-Pop’s most sought-after stars along the ride.

A first for Infinix

In line with the launch of the latest NOTE 60 series, Infinix has also named YUNA of ITZY as its very first Global Brand Ambassador. The company calls this a bold step forward for both innovation and style.

For the record, this is the first time Infinix has tapped a global ambassador — and the choice makes sense. YUNA is known for her confidence, vibrant energy, and unapologetic self-expression. These qualities align closely with Infinix’s “Joy Tech, Beyond Limits” philosophy.

In a statement, YUNA shared her excitement about the partnership. She said she’s looking forward to connecting with fans in a new way and creating meaningful stories together with the brand.

For Infinix, this collaboration is more than just a celebrity endorsement. It signals a shift in how the company wants to position itself globally — not just as a smartphone maker, but as a lifestyle tech brand for expressive, tech-savvy youth.

The more, the merrier

The partnership goes along the debut of the NOTE 60 Series, further fueling Infinix’s move toward a more premium smartphone experience.

Like YUNA, the NOTE 60 line also brings notable names in the table:

  • Powered by Snapdragon from Qualcomm
  • Design collaboration with Pininfarina
  • Audio tuned with JBL

It’s a clear attempt that Infinix wanted to elevate both performance and design by blending in flagship-level specs, more refined aesthetics, and immersive sound altogether.

Infinix says this launch also marks its expansion into more premium international markets.

With YUNA as the face of the brand, the company hopes to strengthen its appeal among younger users who want both powerful hardware and a device that matches their personality.

Rather than focusing purely on specs, Infinix is leaning into storytelling — highlighting how technology can spark creativity, joy, and individuality.

With the NOTE 60 Series and YUNA front and center, Infinix appears ready to redefine its brand identity on a global scale.
