As expected, the company has skipped the S40 naming because the number 4 is considered inauspicious in China. The confirmation comes through a microsite on Vivo China Mall, although the brand has not yet disclosed the exact launch date or the specific models that will be introduced. Rumours suggest that the lineup may include the Vivo S50 and a Vivo S50 Pro Mini, following a pattern similar to the Vivo S30 and S30 Pro Mini. Vivo S50 Series - What Else We Know?

Vivo S50 Pro Mini - Key Specs (Leaked) In a separate post, Weibo tipster DCS revealed more detailed information about the S50 Pro Mini.

Despite being tagged as the “Mini,” the phone may feature a huge 6,500mAh battery, larger than many mainstream flagship models. The device is also rumoured to adopt a horizontal camera bar resembling the one on the iPhone Air. Within this module, Vivo will reportedly use a 50MP Sony IMX9-series primary sensor and a 50MP Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto lens. Additional leaks mention an ultrasonic fingerprint reader and what DCS describes as “full-level” water resistance. This most likely means both IP68 and IP69 certifications. In the comments, the tipster added that both S50 models will feature a metal frame and a periscope telephoto camera. Vivo has also confirmed that the S50 series will offer flagship-level performance thanks to LPDDR5X RAM (9600Mbps) and UFS 4.1 storage. Meanwhile, the standard Vivo S50 is rumoured to include a larger 6.59-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Both phones may support 90W fast charging. Vivo S50 May Launch Globally as Vivo V70 Vivo’s S-series typically reaches global markets under the V-series branding. For example, China’s Vivo S30 was launched internationally as the Vivo V60. Following this pattern, many tech enthusiasts are assuming that the Vivo S50 lineup may launch globally as the Vivo V70. However, conflicting reports have surfaced and further clarity is expected soon. Meanwhile, a Vivo device featuring 90W fast charging appeared on China’s 3C certification website. As per reports, it most likely belongs to the upcoming S50 lineup. We can expect more official details from Vivo as the launch date approaches. FAQs Q1.
