Recent reports have claimed that Vivo is working on the Vivo S9 5G smartphone. It is expected to replace the selfie-focused Vivo S7 5G smartphone from last year. While Vivo is yet to release any confirmation on the existence of the Vivo S9 5G through its social channels in China, a recent leak claimed that the Vivo S9 5G will break cover on March 6. Over the weekend, a reliable tipster shared an offline poster of the Vivo S9 series to reveal its rear design.

The new poster confirms that the Vivo S9 5G will have a 44-megapixel front-facing camera. Speculations are rife that the handset will have a notched screen like the Vivo S7 5G and it will inherit its 44-megapixel (main) + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) dual selfie camera system.

The image reveals that the Vivo S9 5G’s rear design is almost identical to the Vivo S7 5G. A rectangle camera module featuring a triple camera system can be seen on the back panel. Since the machine-translated text reads “S9 series,” it appears that Vivo S9 5G could be accompanied by another handset.

The tipster added that the major highlight of the Vivo S9 5G is that it will be featuring the world’s first 6nm chipset. Past reports have revealed that the Vivo S9 5G will be equipped with the Dimensity 1100 5G chipset which went official last month, a 64-megapixel primary camera, and a 90Hz display.

It seems that the Vivo V2072A phone that was recently seen at the Google Play Console and China’s 3C certification platform could be the Vivo S9 5G phone. These listings revealed that the handset is equipped with specs like a Full HD+ display, 12 GB of RAM, Dimensity 1100 chipset, Android 11 OS, around 4,000mAh battery, and 33W fast charging. If the Vivo S9 5G is truly set to launch on March 6, the Chinese manufacturer may soon start teasing its arrival in the coming days.
