Add DeviceSpecifications as a preferred source on GoogleVivo has officially launched the Vivo S50 in China, a flagship smartphone that blends cutting-edge imaging technology with powerful performance and sleek design. Its price starts at CNY 2999 (~USD 425).
The Vivo S50 is positioned as a "long-focus Live powerhouse," emphasizing its advanced camera system and creative shooting modes. At the heart of the device is a 50MP Sony main sensor with OIS, an 8MP 110° ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP Sony IMX882 telephoto camera. A 50MP snapper with autofocus is placed on the front for selfies. The phone introduces upgraded "Live" modes, including 4K frame enhancement, cinematic zoom effects, and dynamic portrait features, enabling users to capture studio-quality images and videos directly from their device. With three times long-focus Live shooting, the S50 allows portraits and street photography to stand out with heightened atmosphere and storytelling depth. Beyond imaging, the S50 is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 mobile platform, built on a 4nm process. Vivo reports performance gains of up to 57 percent in CPU, 109 percent in GPU, and 137 percent in NPU compared to its predecessor, ensuring smooth multitasking and immersive gaming. The device supports 12GB/16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB/512GB of UFS 4.1 storage, delivering lightning-fast read speeds and responsiveness. Gamers will appreciate the 120-frame MOBA experience, enhanced cooling with a 4200 mm² vapor chamber, and tactile precision from X-axis linear motors.
The display is another highlight. The S50 features a 1.5K ultra-clear screen with a 6.59-inch diagonal size and a 120Hz refresh rate, 5000-nit peak brightness, and 4320Hz PWM dimming for eye comfort. Certified for low blue light by SGS, the panel ensures vivid colors with 100 percent P3 cinema-grade gamut and 10.7 billion color rendering. Vivo has also integrated AI-driven brightness and sleep modes to reduce eye strain during prolonged use.
Battery life is equally impressive. A massive 6500 mAh cell powers the device, paired with 90W fast charging. Vivo claims up to 18.9 hours of continuous short video playback or 9.2 hours of MOBA gaming on a single charge. The phone's durability is reinforced with IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance, making it resilient against everyday elements.
Connectivity and ecosystem integration are central to the S50's appeal. The handset debuts Vivo's "Cosmos Low-Frequency Antenna Ultra," improving weak-signal performance by 145 percent over the previous generation. It supports full-feature NFC, infrared remote control, and seamless interoperability with Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, AirPods, and Apple Watch. Through Vivo's OriginOS 6, the S50 promises five years of smooth performance, intelligent cross-device collaboration, and enhanced productivity tools.
