Vivo smartphones are usually sleek and well designed, and this one is no exception. The Vivo S1 sports a 6.38-inch display with a tiny dewdrop-style notch at the top. Vivo has opted for an AMOLED panel, and the Vivo S1 sports an in-display fingerprint scanner. The display has thin bezels on the sides but the bottom chin is comparatively thicker.
The Vivo S1 is available in two colours, Diamond Black and Skyline Blue and we had the Diamond Black unit for this review. It has a laminate back with a striking diamond pattern design and a gradient colour finish. Depending on how the light hits the back panel, the diamond patterns emerge, which does look catchy.
Vivo has opted for a plastic frame that is rounded which makes the smartphone comfortable to hold in the hand. The back does not meet the frame seamlessly, and you can feel rough edges when holding the phone. Vivo has positioned the power button to the right along with the volume buttons, and they are all easy to reach. The Vivo S1 also has a dedicated Google Assistant button just like the one on the Vivo Z1 Pro.
Vivo S1 specifications and software
The Vivo S1 is the first smartphone in India to be powered by the new MediaTek Helio P65 SoC. The Helio P65 is a mid-range processor based on a 12nm process. It has a pair of ARM Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 2GHz, and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.7GHz. For graphics, it has a Mali-G52 integrated GPU.
Vivo S1 performance, battery life, and cameras
The MediaTek Helio P65 SoC powering the Vivo S1 does a good job and you won’t notice lag or stutter doing day-to-day tasks. This smartphone is quick to launch apps and can run most apps and games out there on the Google Play Store. We never had to wait too long for an app to open. It also manages idle battery drain well, and in our experience, the Vivo S1 did not lose too much of its charge when sitting idle. Multitasking was quite easy considering we had the 6GB RAM variant of the device. The phone never really had to close apps running in the background.
The AMOLED panel on the Vivo S1 had good viewing angles and was bright enough to be legible outdoors. However, the bottom-firing speaker isn’t that loud, causing the Vivo S1 to fall short of being a good device to consume content on. We also tested the in-display fingerprint scanner as well as the face recognition feature on this device. The in-display scanner is quick to scan a finger and unlock the smartphone, and rarely required a second attempt. Face Unlock isn’t the most secure way of unlocking the smartphone, but it is very quick and convenient.
