First, the good part: both X60 global units swap the China version’s Exynos 1080 for a Snapdragon 870, which means they have better performance under the hood. The global Pro model also retains the 48-megapixel f/1.48 main camera with a 2nd-gen gimbal system for better stabilization and a new pixel shift tech for better detail and accuracy. The vanilla model, meanwhile, settles for a regular 48-megapixel f/1.8 camera with OIS. both sport ZEISS tech, which includes the trademark ZEISS Biotar swirl bokeh.

Unlike the Chinese version that has a periscope camera, both global versions of the X60 settle for a conventional 13-megapixel telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. Going back to the similarities, the global versions also have a 6.56-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display (curved on the Pro, flat on the vanilla model) with a 120hz refresh rate and 240hz touch sampling rate.

As for the battery, the vanilla X60 gets a 4300mAh battery, while the Pro model gets a smaller 4200Ah cell–most probably because of the latter’s gimbal mechanism. Both charge using 33w charging speeds, with the required charging brick supplied in the box. Both phones run Android 11-based FunTouchOS 11.1 out of the box and come with 12GB RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 storage. They also have an Extended RAM feature, which makes use of the fast internal storage as virtual RAM.
