Vivo S50 series key details tipped
DCS claims that the Vivo S50 series will be unveiled in December and is internally codenamed ‘Battle Angel.’ According to him, the company is aiming to bring a true flagship experience in three key areas on its forthcoming mid-range lineup for the first time.
The S50 series’ major upgrades include the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, a Sony IMX882-class periscope telephoto camera, and an improved version of the ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint scanner, which will be the same as the X300 series.
DCS adds that the S50 series continues with a slim, minimalist design while offering hardware and software specifications that are unusually strong for this segment. With the year-end competition in the mid-range “flagship-killer” space heating up, he suggests that users might want to wait for a few models to launch and then compare them.
Reports have revealed that the Vivo S50 Pro Mini will feature a 6.31-inch OLED 1.5K 120Hz display and a battery of between 6,000mAh and 6,500mAh capacity. Under the hood, it will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5. It will have a triple camera setup, which will include a flagship-grade periscope telephoto camera.
The Vivo S50 is said to be a slightly bigger device equipped with a 6.59-inch OLED 1.5K 120Hz screen. On being asked whether the S50 is equipped with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, the tipster responded that it is powered by a Snapdragon 8-series chipset. This phone is also expected to feature a periscope camera in its triple camera unit. Both devices are expected to support 90W wired charging.
There have been some reports claiming that the Vivo V70 heading to the global market will be based on the China-exclusive Vivo S50. The reason is that the V70 has just been spotted with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 on Geekbench, whereas the S50 is expected to feature a higher Snapdragon 8-series chipset. This indicates that the V70 and S50 may not have many similarities.
