vivo recently unveiled its latest S-series models, the vivo S50 and S50 Pro mini. The design of the S50 Pro mini is hard not to be reminded of the iPhone Air, but vivo has clearly made a completely different choice between "lightness and thinness" and "battery life", packing an amazing 6500mAh battery into a 6.31-inch body.
S50 Pro mini: Actually a flagship mini-Steel Coral
Despite its "mini" designation, the S50 Pro mini boasts impressive specifications. It features Qualcomm's latest flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor and a 6.31-inch flat OLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.
Within a relatively compact body measuring 8.1mm thick and weighing 192 grams, vivo has packed in a massive 6500mAh battery, meaning that while the design pays homage to the iPhone Air, it has not sacrificed battery life. Furthermore, it supports 90W wired fast charging and 40W wireless fast charging.
S50: A mainstream large-screen choice
The standard version of the vivo S50 is equipped with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor and features a larger 6.59-inch screen, also boasting a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The battery capacity remains the same as the S50 Pro mini at 6500mAh, supporting 90W wired fast charging, but it does not offer wireless charging.
In terms of design, the S50 is actually thinner than the S50 Pro mini, measuring only 7.59mm and weighing approximately 197 grams. Both phones feature a metal frame with a glass back cover and are IP68/IP69 dust and water resistant. All models in the series come standard with an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, a feature rarely seen in its class.
Imaging specifications: All models feature periscope telephoto lenses.
vivo's S series has always focused on portrait photography, and this time they've been quite generous with the telephoto lens configuration.
• Front camera:All models come standard with a 5000-megapixel camera.
• Rear camera:S50 Pro mini採用5000萬畫素、Sony IMX921感光元件、f/1.57光圈與光學防震,S50則採用5000萬畫素、Sony LYTIA 700V感光元件、f/1.88光圈,同樣支援光學防震。其他規格部分,兩款機種都搭載5000萬畫素潛望式、3X光學變焦的長焦鏡頭,以及800萬畫素規格的超廣角鏡頭。
