Vivo S50 Serie smartphone spotted on 3C

A new Vivo smartphone, carrying the model number V2528A, has now surfaced on China’s 3C certification platform. The device is believed to be the standard model in the upcoming Vivo S50 series. The listing also confirms two supported power adapters – “V9082L0A1-CN” and “V9082L0E1-CN” – both rated for 90W fast wired charging, indicating that the phone will support the same charging speed out of the box.

Just like the Vivo S30 series, which launched in China, comprising the Vivo S30 and S30 Pro Mini, a similar launch pattern is expected for the S50 lineup as well.

As for the rumoured specifications, the Vivo S50 could feature a 6.59-inch flat OLED 1.5K display, a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, a triple rear camera setup with periscope telephoto, and a metal middle frame. The S50 Pro Mini, on the other hand, is said to be a compact option with a 6.31-inch flat OLED 1.5K display.

Interestingly, the S50 Pro Mini could also be one of the first smartphones powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip. It’s also rumoured to pack a battery larger than the 6,040mAh found on the Vivo X300. Both devices are expected to run OriginOS 6 based on Android 16.
