/in /tarafından

Vivo is reportedly gearing up to launch its S50 series in China in the coming weeks, following the global debut of the Vivo X300 series last week. The S50 lineup is expected to include at least two models: the Vivo S50 and Vivo S50 Pro Mini, which will succeed last year’s Vivo S30 and S30 Pro Mini launched in May. Early reports indicate that the new phones have already received regulatory clearance, suggesting that an official launch could happen soon.

According to a report from Gizmochina, an unnamed tipster revealed that two Vivo devices, bearing model numbers V2527A and V2528A, have appeared on the SRRC (State Radio Regulation) website. These listings are widely believed to correspond to the Vivo S50 and S50 Pro Mini, signaling that the phones have passed the necessary radio certification required for launch in China. However, the SRRC listings do not reveal detailed specifications or features, leaving many questions about the devices’ capabilities still unanswered.

The Vivo S50 series is expected to make its official debut later this month, positioning itself against competitors like the Oppo Reno 15 and Honor 500 series, which are also rumored to launch around the same time. Both the base S50 and the S50 Pro Mini are likely to run Android 16 with Vivo’s OriginOS 6 skin on top, offering a familiar and refined software experience for users in China.

While specific hardware details are still under wraps, the S50 series is expected to continue Vivo’s trend of delivering mid-range smartphones with competitive features, including strong cameras, high-refresh-rate displays, and solid performance. With regulatory approvals now complete, the countdown to the official launch in China has officially begun, and more details regarding specifications, pricing, and availability are expected to emerge in the coming weeks.

The Vivo S50 Pro Mini is reportedly in development as the successor to the Vivo S30 Pro Mini, targeting the Chinese market first. Recent leaks have revealed some of the key specifications of the upcoming device, generating excitement among smartphone enthusiasts. The handset is tipped to feature a larger battery than the standard Vivo X300, suggesting improved endurance for power users. There are indications that the device could launch globally under the Vivo X300 FE branding, expanding its availability beyond China.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 Expected to Power the Device

According to tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the Vivo S50 Pro Mini is likely to be powered by the unannounced Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. While Qualcomm has not officially revealed this processor yet, the tipster claims it features a stronger CPU architecture and is fabricated using TSMC’s N3p process, offering efficiency and performance improvements over current flagship chips. This marks a shift from earlier reports, which suggested the device might use the Dimensity 9400+ chipset.

Design and Battery Rumors

Though detailed design specifications remain scarce, the leaks suggest that the S50 Pro Mini will maintain a premium build while focusing on enhanced battery life. Analysts speculate that the larger battery could make the device particularly appealing for gamers and heavy users. If the global variant does launch as the Vivo X300 FE, it is expected to inherit these features while catering to a broader audience outside China.

Global Debut as Vivo X300 FE

The potential rebranding of the S50 Pro Mini as the Vivo X300 FE in international markets highlights Vivo’s strategy of aligning premium and mid-range devices across regions. By leveraging a powerful new Snapdragon chipset, a bigger battery, and likely refined features, Vivo aims to position this device as a competitive option in the global smartphone market, especially for users looking for high performance in a compact form factor.
