Vivo is expected to unveil the Vivo S50 and S50 Pro Mini smartphones in November in China. Earlier leaks suggested that the S50 Pro Mini would come equipped with the Dimensity 9400 Plus chipset. However, a new leak from a reliable source indicates that the upcoming device will instead be powered by a Snapdragon 8-series chipset, revealing several additional details about the compact flagship as well.
Vivo S50 Pro Mini key details leaked
The Vivo S50 Pro Mini is said to feature a 6.3-inch flat display, confirming that it will continue the compact design language of the S30 Pro Mini. Reports indicate the screen will offer 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth visuals.
According to the latest leak, the phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, replacing the previously rumoured Dimensity 9400 Plus. While Qualcomm has yet to launch this processor officially, early details reveal that it is based on a 3nm process, featuring a 3.8GHz prime core, 3.32GHz performance cores, and a next-generation Adreno GPU.
It is also reported that the OnePlus Ace 6 Turbo will be the first smartphone in China to debut with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, which suggests that the S50 Pro Mini could launch shortly after it.
The leak further claims that the S50 Pro Mini will feature a larger battery than the Vivo X300’s 6,040mAh unit. On the camera front, it is expected to offer a triple-camera setup that includes a periscope telephoto lens. Additionally, earlier leaks have mentioned a 50-megapixel front camera for selfies.
Vivo X300 FE rebranding
Rumours suggest that the Vivo X300 FE, which is expected to launch in global markets, could be a rebranded version of the China-exclusive Vivo S50 Pro Mini. Early reports indicate that the global variant may debut in the first quarter of 2026.
