Vivo S1 was one of the most well-received mid-range devices of 2019 in Nepal. That is why Vivo topped it up with a Pro variant. Vivo S1 Pro is a device battling for the mid-range crown in Nepal but how does it fare against the mid-rangers in the same price segment from other companies. Let’s find more about it.
Vivo S1 Pro Overview
Running the show is the Snapdragon 665 chipset backed by 8GB of RAM. It’s the same configuration found on Mi A3 and Oppo A9 2020. But since both Mi A3 and A9 had HD+ and the S1 Pro has a fullHD+ panel, the Snapdragon 665 chipset’s performance wouldn’t be as good as those phones. For storage, there’s 128GB with a dedicated microSD card slot.
Unlike V17 Pro, the S1 won’t have a mechanical pop-up selfie camera and instead features a notch. The notch holds a 32MP selfie camera. The back of the phone has a diamond-shaped quad camera setup. There’s a 48MP primary lens, am 8MP ultra-wide lens, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 2MP macro lens.
The Vivo S1 Pro gets the power from a 4500mAh battery, the same as the Vivo S1. However, Vivo has finally included a Type C port for charging. You also get an 18W Dual engine fast charging. Running the show is Funtouch OS 9.2 based on Android 9.0.
