Anticipate a Lower Price Tag for the Upcoming Vivo X100s Compared to the Existing Vivo X100 Smartphone.
After the launch of Vivo’s X100 series in China, which includes the Vivo X100 and Vivo X100 Pro smartphones, Vivo now seems to be gearing up to launch two more phones as a part of its X100 lineup. While we have been hearing about the expected launch of the Vivo X100 Pro+ (also tagged as the Vivo X100 Ultra), it now seems that Vivo may also planning to announce a new Vivo X100s model. There was not much known about this mystery handset until a tipster leaked details about it along with its launch timeline.
A report by GizmoChina (citing prominent tipster Digital Chat Station) claims that Vivo will announce another model apart from the expected ultra-premium Vivo X100 Pro+. The tipster reportedly stated that this model will be called the Vivo X100s.
The report indicates that the upcoming Vivo X100s, essentially identical to the Vivo X100, distinguishes itself with a flat display while retaining the same internal hardware. This suggests a potential lower pricing compared to the currently available Vivo X100 and Vivo X100 Pro models.
According to the source, the Vivo X100s is expected to be unveiled concurrently with or alongside the Vivo X100 Pro+, possibly bearing the name Vivo X100 Ultra. In contrast, the recently launched Vivo X100 boasts a curved-edge display and was introduced alongside the Vivo X100 Pro, which currently stands as Vivo’s flagship in terms of smartphone imaging.
Featuring a 6.78-inch AMOLED 8T LTPO curved display with a 120Hz refresh rate, the Vivo X100 is powered by a Dimensity 9300 SoC and offers up to 16GB of RAM. Equipped with Vivo’s V3 imaging chip, the phone boasts a 50-megapixel primary camera, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 64-megapixel telephoto camera with 100X hybrid zoom. Selfies are captured by a 32-megapixel front-facing camera. The device runs on a 5,000mAh battery with 120W wired charging support and is IP68-rated for dust and water resistance.
