Vivo S15
The Vivo S15 is in theory the more modest of the two models, although the truth is that there are not big differences between the two. The front of this terminal is monopolized by its screen 6.62-inch 120Hz AMOLED with Full HD+ resolution. The screen hides the fingerprint reader under its surface and mounts the 32-megapixel front camera with a punch-hole in the center.
For photography, the Vivo S15 mounts a triple camera with 64 megapixel main sensor, with an 8-megapixel wide angle and a 2-megapixel sensor for macro photography. The camera module is identical in both models.
On this occasion, Vivo is betting on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, with 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of storage to choose from. As for the design line, here the bet is on flat edges, unlike the Pro model, which bets on curves.
The Vivo S15 mounts a battery of 4,500mAh supporting 66W fast chargingwhich is not bad at all although lower than what we will find in the Pro model. The terminal is launched with Android 12 with OriginOS Ocean pre-installed.
Vivo S15 Pro
We also encountered the Vivo S15 Pro today, the slightly higher model. The main difference is that this time the processor is from MediaTek, a Dimensity 8100 fresh out of the oven. The RAM is maintained in the versions with 8 or 12 GB, but the storage is only available in the 256 GB version.
The Vivo S15 Pro also bets on an AMOLED panel, although with superior technology and a little smaller. we have a screen 6.56-inch AMOLED with Full HD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Beneath its surface is the fingerprint reader; punch-hole, 32-megapixel front camera.
The Pro model is also committed to the triple camera, but with a slight change in the distribution of megapixels. The main sensor is 50 megapixelswhile the wide-angle is 12-megapixels and the standard model’s macro sensor converts to a monochrome lens for portrait mode.
As for the battery, the Vivo S15 Pro repeats the capacity of 4,500 mAh, but increases the speed of the fast charging up to 80W. According to the company, the fast charging of the terminal charges as fast as a 100W load, but with the heating of a 66W load.
