Reports have revealed that well-known Chinese smartphone brands are preparing to launch powerful yet camera-focused mid-range phones in China this month. These include the Honor 600 series, the Oppo Reno 16 series, and the Vivo S60 lineup. A new leak, courtesy of tipster Digital Chat Station, has revealed key details about Vivo’s next S-series phone.
Vivo S60 key details tipped
Tipster Digital Chat Station has shared fresh details about an upcoming Vivo “S” iteration smartphone prototype, which appears to belong to the Vivo S60 series. To recall, last year’s S50 lineup featured the Vivo S50 with a 6.59-inch display and Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip, while the Vivo S50 Pro Mini was equipped with a smaller 6.32-inch screen and Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset.
According to the new leak, the upcoming S60 series phone features a 6.59-inch 1.5K display with large-radius corners and a centrally positioned screen design. The mentioned screen size suggests that the tipster could be referring to the standard Vivo S60.
The leak further reveals that the S60 will adopt a large horizontal camera matrix on the rear and could be powered by a Snapdragon 8s-series chipset. The device is also tipped to pack a battery capacity starting with “7,” indicating a battery in the 7,000mAh range, along with support for 90W fast charging.
For photography, the prototype reportedly includes a Sony IMX8-series mid-sized periscope telephoto sensor. Other expected features include a metal middle frame, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, IP68/IP69-rated dust and water resistance, and support for magnetic accessories via magnetic cases.
The tipster further claims that one of the engineering prototype color options is a striking pink shade. In addition, the device is said to be planned in collaboration with a well-known Chinese anime IP. A report from last month suggested that the S60 lineup will have support telephoto extender accessory.
The Vivo S60 could be accompanied by the Vivo S60 Pro Mini, which may feature a compact design similar to the previous generation. To recall, the S50 Pro Mini was reportedly rebranded as the Vivo X300 FE in markets outside China. Therefore, it is likely that the S60 Pro Mini, if it exists, may be rebadged as the Vivo X500 FE in the first half of 2027.
