Now that Chinese New Year is approaching, the new vivo S12 is almost upon us. The device has been codenamed “Superman” and is expected to be released this month.
The vivo S series always kept its focus on selfie camera performance and sported slim and stylish appearances. However, the more hardcore Superman codename seemingly signals the ushering in of a different strategy for the S series. Superman is, after all, a symbol of power, speed, versatility, and other characteristics.
This probably does not mean that vivo will be doing away with all of the selfie tech it has developed over the years. The vivo S series should continue to include features such as enhanced beauty, RAW domain noise reduction, and selfie softlight. But these will be topped by improvements to raw performance and the gaming experience.
Digital Chat station recently stated that the vivo S12 and S12 Pro are currently testing the new OriginOS Ocean system and support 44W fast charging. These two, combined with the iQOO Neo5se, iQOO Neo5s, etc., are equipped with Snapdragon 778G + Dimensity 1200 + Snapdragon 888 chipsets.
Previous leaks had revealed that the vivo S12 Pro uses an FHD+ OLED high refresh rate curved display, 50MP dual camera setup on the front, 108MP triple camera setup on the rear, and Dimensity 1200 processor. It will come pre-installed with OriginOS Ocean and will be priced at $450-500.
