Vivo is expected to announce the Vivo S6 5G smartphone by the end of this month or early April. It will be the company’s first S-series phone with 5G capabilities. The Chinese manufacturer recently shared a render which revealed the design of the bottom half of Vivo S6 5G’s rear shell. A reliable tipster from China shared a live shot of what appears to be the upcoming Vivo S6 5G phone.

The tipster did not reveal the name of the device. Since it is running on FunTouch OS UI, it appears to be an upcoming Vivo phone with dual punch-hole display. Hence, it is likely that the Vivo S6 5G may arrive with a pill-shaped cutout at the top-right corner.

The S-series phones from Vivo feature selfie-centric smartphones. The predecessor Vivo S5 that debuted in September last year came with a 32-megapixel front-facing camera. Hence, there is a possibility that the Vivo S6 5G could be arriving with a dual front-facing camera. Probably, it will retain the 32-megapixel lens as the primary shooter. It could be accompanied by an ultrawide lens.

There is no word on the specifications of the Vivo S6 5G. There are rumors that it could be powered by the Exynos 980 chipset which was made available first on the Vivo X30 and X30 Pro phones that debuted in December 2019. The Exynos 980 brings support for dual-mode 5G connectivity.

Above shown is a recently released poster of the Vivo S6 5G phone. It only reveals that the phone will come in blue-purple gradient color. The bottom edge of the device can be seen sporting a speaker grille, a USB-C port, a microphone and a SIM card slot. The handset may not feature a 3.5mm audio jack or it could be placed on the top edge. The phone seems to be equipped with an ultrathin and a lightweight body.

Recently, a Vivo phone with a model number of V1962BA was recently spotted at the 3C certification platform. The listing revealed that it supports 5G connectivity and it may ship with an 18W fast charger. It is speculated that the V1962BA model number may belong to the forthcoming Vivo S6 5G phone.
