The Vivo S17 Pro surfaces in full ahead of its launch
The Vivo S17 Pro, which has been hinting at its features through leaks for some time, has revealed almost all of its key characteristics just a short time before its official presentation.
On May 31, Vivo, the renowned smartphone maker, is set to launch the Vivo S17 series in China, which is anticipated to include the Vivo S17 and the Vivo S17 Pro. There's also speculation about the potential introduction of the S17t model. Recently, Vivo shared several promotional posters on its Weibo account, giving a sneak peek into the camera capabilities of the S17 Pro.
Vivo has revealed that the S17 Pro will come equipped with a top-notch 50-megapixel wide-angle front camera, boasting an unparalleled 90-degree Field of View (FOV) and an f/2.0 aperture. Paired with dual soft lights, the front camera is designed to capture stunning selfies, even under low-light circumstances.
The Vivo S17 Pro also features a 2x portrait lens, which will likely facilitate capturing striking portrait shots with ease. This unique portrait lens will only be found in the Pro variant, making it unavailable in the Vivo S17 and S17t models. In addition, the Pro model is expected to house a super-sensing spectral sensor.
Last week, the S17 Pro was certified by China's TENAA authority, revealing some of the smartphone's crucial specs. The phone will feature a 6.78-inch AMOLED display, which has curved edges and an integrated fingerprint sensor. It will support a 1.5K+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.
Powering the Vivo S17 Pro will be the Dimensity 8200 chipset, and the phone will offer up to 16GB of RAM and storage capacity up to 512GB. It's expected to pack a 4,600mAh battery with 80W charging capabilities, and will run on the Android 13-based OriginOS 3.0.
Further, the S17 Pro is rumored to have a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 front camera. Its rear camera setup is expected to include an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel Sony IMX766V main camera, a 12-megapixel Sony IMX663 telephoto camera, and an 8-megapixel Sony IMX355 ultra-wide lens.
