The smartphone is expected to rival with the likes of OPPO Reno4 and Huawei Nova 7 in the home market.

Vivo S6 Pro 5G specifications (Unconfirmed)

The Vivo S6 Pro will be featuring an OLED panel that offers a 60Hz refresh rate. The leak does not mention the size and design of the screen. Since the Vivo S6 5G came with a punch-hole screen, the S6 Pro may house a dual punch-hole display since it expected to feature a 32-megapixel Samsung GD1 + 8-megapixel (superwide) dual selfie camera setup. Like the vanilla model, the Pro edition is likely to feature an under-display fingerprint sensor.

The ‘Streaming Mystery’ variant of the Vivo S6 5G does not bring anything new to the table apart from an impressive paint job.

UP NEXT: Vivo S6 5G vs Oppo Reno3 5G vs Redmi K30 5G: Specs Comparison

The post Vivo S6 5G goes on sale in China appeared first on Gizmochina.

If you want a 5G phone, you do not need to buy a flagship anymore. Currently, there are a lot of mid-rangers supporting 5G connectivity just like flagships: only 5G entry-level devices are missing. A bunch of hours before we published this post, Vivo unveiled its most affordable 5G mid-ranger: the Vivo S6 5G. That is the reason why we decided to write a new comparison. If you need a 5G device but you are also searching for the best value for money, you should definitely check this specs comparison between Vivo S6 5G, Oppo Reno3 5G, and Redmi K30 5G.

Vivo S6 5G vs Oppo Reno3 5G vs Xiaomi Redmi K30 5G

Design

Despite Redmi K30 5G adopts a punch-hole display, I personally prefer the design and build quality of the Oppo Reno3 5G. I would go for it because it is more compact and it has a more minimalistic look, thanks to a small camera module, smaller dimensions, and a thinner profile. Right after, we got the Redmi K30 5G which still comes with a premium design including an aluminum frame and a glass back. Vivo S6 5G has a pretty nice design too, but its big camera module and its lower screen-to-body ratio do not make it shine in this comparison.

Display

A lot of people may like the color reproduction of Vivo S6 5G and Oppo Reno3 5G more than Redmi K30 5G because they sport an AMOLED panel. And they even come with under display fingerprint reader. The Redmi K30 5G does not offer these qualities because it has an IPS display, but it is still an amazing panel, even more interesting than Vivo S6 5G and Oppo Reno3. Redmi K30 5G is one of the most affordable phones sporting a display with a high 120 Hz refresh rate providing a very smooth viewing experience. Further, the panel is HDR10-compliant, so it delivers a high image quality despite not being an OLED display.

Hardware/Software

While Exynos 980 and Snapdragon 765G are two upper-midrange chipsets that should provide a similar level of performance on Vivo S6 5G and Redmi K30 5G, the MediaTek Dimensity 1000L found on the Oppo Reno3 should actually be more performing. Further, Oppo Reno3 5G is available with up to 12 GB of RAM, while its rivals stop at 8 GB. On the other hand, Exynos 980 and Snapdragon 765G offer a better 5G connectivity since Dimensity 1000L only supports sub-6 GHz frequencies. Android 10 is installed out of the box.

Camera

Oppo Reno3 wins the camera comparison with better rear cameras and even a better front camera on the paper. It is the only supporting OIS and, besides shooting better photos, it should also allow capturing the best 4K videos. Redmi K30 5G comes right after with its 64 MP quad-camera, but it does not stand a chance against Oppo Reno3 which can be considered more than a simple midrange camera phone.

Battery

Vivo S6 5G is supposed to offer a longer battery life than Redmi K30 5G and Oppo Reno3 5G. It has a bigger battery than Oppo Reno3 and a smaller display than Redmi K30 5G, with a standard refresh rate. Given that Redmi K30 5G has an IPS display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, it may have a way shorter battery life than Vivo S6 5G. Oppo Reno3 charges faster thanks to its 30W technology and lower battery capacity.

Price

Vivo S6 5G sells for about €347/$380 in China, in the 6/128 GB version. The starting price of Redmi K30 5G is about €247/$270 (6/64 GB), while Oppo Reno3 starts from €440/$482. The Oppo Reno3 is the best phone here since it features a more powerful chipset and higher-end cameras, but it has a lower battery capacity and it does not support mmWave. But the value for money award goes to Redmi K30 5G.

The post Vivo S6 5G vs Oppo Reno3 5G vs Redmi K30 5G: Specs Comparison appeared first on Gizmochina.

Vivo launched the Vivo S6 5G today at an online event in China. The phone comes with the super-fast 5G support and a bunch of camera tricks that appeal to the young generation in China. Moreover, with Exynos 980 on board, the phone packs enough power to tackle intensive tasks like gaming with ease.

The Vivo S6 5G comes with a familiar 3D curved design with a couple of interesting colors like Gradient Purple-Blue and Light Blue. As the company mentioned in one of its earlier teasers, the brand has limited the phone’s weight to just 181 grams, less than its predecessor. Vivo has also ditched the diamond-shaped camera housing from the Vivo S5 in favor of a simpler round camera design. This camera housing features a quad-camera setup and the flash is placed outside, just below it.

The Vivo S6 comes with an under-display fingerprint sensor.

Vivo S6 Specs

Under the hood, the Vivo S6 5G features the 8nm Exynos 980 upper mid-range 5G processor. This is paired with LPDDR4X 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. It supports both SA/NSA 5G standards and comes in a dual SIM dual standby variant.

There’s a 6.44-inch AMOLED HDR10 certified waterdrop display up front with 2400 × 1080 FHD+ resolution, 103% NTSC ultra-wide color gamut and ultra-high contrast of up to 1200000:1. The phone also features the company’s Multi-Turbo technology. This consists of six individual technologies which include CPU Turbo, AI Turbo, Net Turbo, Cooling Turbo, Game Turbo, and ART++ Turbo. The company claims that the new generation of Cooling Turbo on the Vivo S6 reduces the phone’s temperature by up to 10° celsius as compared to its predecessor.

Under the hood, the Vivo S6 5G comes with a 4500mAh battery, that’s larger than the S5. However, what’s really surprising is that it supports just 18W charging technology. To recall, even the S5 had a 22.5W charger, so it is really disappointing to see Vivo downgrade the charging tech on the new model.

Vivo is offering a bunch of software features like intelligent image recognition, app sharing, and screencast. As for connectivity, you get a dedicated 3.5mm headphone jack, Wi-Fi ac, and Bluetooth 5.1. The phone is also Hi-Res certified!

Vivo S6 Camera

The Vivo S6 5G comes with more or less the same camera specs as its predecessor. This includes a 48MP primary shooter that’s paired with an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, 2MP depth of field lens, and a 2MP macro lens capable of 4cm close-up shots.

The Vivo S6 supports 4K video shooting and 1080P real-time beauty mode shooting too. There’s a special dual view video mode that displays the video streams from the rear and front cameras simultaneously on the screen.

The real highlight of the Vivo S6 5G is its front camera. Featuring the same 32MP selfie shooter like its predecessor but with a larger f/2.08 aperture, the phone has a few tricks up its sleeve. For example, the S6 supports EIS on both front and back cameras. It has a new Super-Clear night view selfie mode that uses new super night view algorithms and lights up the screen upfront for brighter selfies when the lighting goes down. The selfie shooter also has 6 preset beauty makeup modes to liven up your selfies.

Vivo S6 5G Pricing & Availability

The Vivo S6 5G comes in two variants at launch. The 8GB RAM and 128GB storage variant start at 2698 yuan ($381) while the 8GB and 256GB storage variant is priced at 2998 yuan ($423).

The phone will go on sale from April 3 via Vivo’s official store, Tmall, JD.com, and other major online and offline platforms.

As for the specification, the Vivo S6 5G will feature a 6.44-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution. The display will also have an under-screen fingerprint sensor onboard.

The Vivo S6 5G smartphone will be debuting in China by the end of this month. In recent past, a Vivo phone that has a model number of V1962BA was approved by the 3C authority of China. The handset was spotted with an 18W fast charger.  It was speculated at that time that it could be the forthcoming Vivo S6 5G smartphone. Today, the Vivo V1962BA along with its network variant with model number Vivo V1962A have surfaced on TENAA with full specifications.

Vivo is gearing up for the launch of the Vivo S6 5G phone which will be made official on March 31. Ahead of the launch, the Chinese firm is gradually teasing on the design of the phone. Recently, it released a poster that showcased the bottom portion of the Vivo S6 5G’s rear shell. It revealed that the phone will be arriving with an ultra-thin design. Fresh posters of the phone that have appeared today reveals that the back panel of the phone features the so-called Oreo design quad camera system.

Vivo is yet to reveal the front design of the Vivo S6 5G smartphone. Last week, an alleged live shot of a Vivo phone with dual punch-hole display had appeared on Weibo. There is a possibility that the Vivo S6 5G may arrive with two front-facing cameras. Again, no information is available on the configurations of its front cameras. Some reports have claimed that the Vivo S6 5G’s dual front camera setup will have a 32-megpaixel lens borrowed from the predecessor Vivo S5 along with a depth assist lens.

The Vivo S6 5G could be the Vivo V1962BA phone that was approved by the 3C authority of China in the recent past. It had revealed that it is a 5G-capable phone that may include a 18W fast charger in its retail package. It could be either powered by the Exynos 980 or Snapdragon 765 chipset.

The smartphone is now for reservations on JD.com. The listing reveals that it is equipped with a 48-megapixel lens on its back and it will also come in another dark blue gradient color.

Vivo has been teasing the launch of its S6 smartphone for a while now. Finally, the brand has now unveiled the date on which this handset will be announced. As per a new teaser poster on the company’s Weibo profile, the Vivo S6 will be unwrapped to the public on March 31st.

The S series of smartphones from Vivo is one of the popular phone series in the mid-range segment in China and South East Asia. The last S series phone dubbed as S5 was launched in November 2019 and now after about four months, the brand is about to unveil its successor called Vivo S6, which will be the first in the series with 5G connectivity.

Just like any other Chinese smartphone brand, Vivo has been teasing the S6 for the past few days. As of now, the brand has only revealed the back design of the phone but we expect the company to tease all the specs of the handset leading to the day of the announcement. As per the latest promotional teaser render posted by the company, the Vivo S6 will feature a USB Type – C port at the bottom with a speaker grille and SIM card slot on either side. Apart from that, the teaser also showcased the purple-blue-white gradient version of the phone with Vivo and 5G logo embedded on the back.

Rumors suggest the Vivo S6 will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 chipset but there is still no evidence of it in terms of benchmarks leak. Hopefully, we will know more about this upcoming Vivo phone before its official announcement.

Vivo recently confirmed that it will be launching the 5G Vivo S6 later this month. The company is yet to reveal a specific launch date but has continued to tease some features of the phone. A new teaser video shared on Weibo by the company promotes the flagship model as having an ultra-thin and lightweight build.

This latest teaser video happens to be the third the Chinese tech giant is releasing concerning the Vivo S6. The company first teaser points to the presence of a dual-mode 5G chip onboard the device. A second teaser was shared which promotes a night view selfie feature that would be included on the S6’s selfie camera.

The frequency at which the company has been releasing teasers suggests the Vivo S6 launch is imminent. As per this latest teaser, the company is suggesting the device will be featherweight which would be a good thing. However, in the 5G era, battery capacity and power efficiency are features that buyers look out for. We do hope Vivo isn’t sacrificing the size of the battery for a lighter weighing smartphone. That isn’t likely going to happen. Likely scenario is the use of materials that won’t increase the weight of the device like a glass body instead of metal and such like.

Vivo is yet to release key specs details of the Vivo S6 but the device is likely to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G SoC since it supports 5G. This potentially makes it an upper mid-range model. We expect the device to feature Vivo’s propriety SuperVOOC fast charging technology among other things.
