Vivo confirmed that the Vivo S18 series will be equipped with the self-developed Blue Heart AI large model. The Vivo X100 series available in the Chinese market already ships with the Bluet Heart AI model. Vivo showcased the capabilities of its AI model at the Vivo Developer Conference (VDC) 2023 earlier this month. According to Vivo, the Blue Heart AI model comprises a range of five models with varying parameter levels—billions, tens of billions, and hundreds of billions.

For those who don’t know, an AI large model is a type of machine learning model that is very large in terms of the number of parameters it uses.

Vivo S18, S18 Pro design tipped, Vivo S18e also in works

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Wed, 29 Nov 2023 01:10:00 +0000

In June, Vivo unveiled the Vivo S17 series, which includes three models, namely the Vivo S17e, the Vivo S17, and the Vivo S17 Pro. The brand is now said to be working on successor editions of all three phones. In a new leak, tipster Digital Chat Station shared details about the design of the S18 series. In addition, he also leaked the camera specifications of the S18 Pro.

Vivo S18 series design

Vivo S18 series schematic

Earlier this week, DCS shared the above schematic to reveal the design of the iQOO Neo 9 and Neo 9 Pro smartphones that are expected to launch in December in China. The tipster shared a similar image again in a new Weibo post and claimed that the Vivo S18, which is also expected in December in China, will have a very similar design.

While the iQOO Neo 9 series will have a flat display, the S18 and S18 Pro are likely to feature a curved-edge OLED screen. There could be some differences in the rear camera module as well, since the S18 series will have a telephoto camera, a feature not likely to be present in the Neo 9 series.

The leak reiterates that the Vivo S18 will have the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset, whereas its Pro variant will be equipped with the Dimensity 9200 Plus SoC. Both phones are expected to pack a 5,000mAh battery with 80W fast charging support.

Both phones will have a 50-megapixel primary camera with OIS support. While the Pro model will feature the Sony IMX920 lens as the main camera, it is unclear whether the standard model will have the same primary camera. The Pro model’s camera module is tipped to include a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a telephoto camera.

Another leaker has claimed that the Vivo S18, which bears the V2323A, will arrive in four configurations, such as 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage, 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage, 12 GB RAM + 512 GB storage, and 16 GB RAM + 512 GB storage. To recall, the S17 and S17 Pro were available in the same configurations. Hence, it is likely that the S18 Pro will also have the same variants as the S18. The same tipster also revealed that the Vivo S18e is also in the works, and it will have a flat display instead of the curved-edge one that was available on the Vivo S17e. All three phones are expected to arrive in black, green, and a multi-color hue.
