Box Contents 

When you open the Sleek box of Vivo S1, you are greeted with the elegantly wrapped smartphone first. After lifting the smartphone, you get access to the 18W fast charger, a pair of headphones, and even the Vivo S1 case. The TPU case for Vivo S1 is a welcoming gesture from Vivo. There is a bit of warranty paperwork at the bottom, along with the SIM ejector tool. 

Looks and Design 

Vivo is playing the game of aesthetics with the Vivo S1 smartphone. It’s a visually stunning smartphone, which anyone would like. The simple and sleek design makes it look beautiful. A comparatively low weight of 173 grams is acceptable, as it feels a bit lightweight in the hands. Large display with Schott Xensation 3D Glass provides the necessary protection to the same. The Schott Xensation 3D glass is known to protect against scratches and abrasions with ease. There is a water drop notch, which is minimal and looks good on the device. The notch houses the front camera module, which captures the photos at 32MP resolution.

The backside of the device is made entirely of plastic. The plastic is relatively strong, but the feel is not that good. The polycarbonate back is quite prone to fingerprints, and you have to keep wiping them to maintain a clean look. The rear side hosts the three cameras in the vertical alignment. The first camera is the primary camera with the 18MP Sony sensor. The secondary camera is the Ultrawide sensor with 8MP resolution and a 120-degrees field of view. The third camera is the macro sensor, which captures at 2MP and is suitable for macro shots and nonregular captures. For assistance in low-light situations, there is a bright flashlight.

Vivo S1 vs. Vivo S1 Pro | Key Differences 

Vivo S1 and Vivo S1 Pro are from the same series but have fundamental differences in the configuration. Vivo S1 comes with the Helio P65 processor, and Vivo S1 Pro comes with Snapdragon 665 SoC.  Also, the Vivo S1 Pro comes with a four-camera setup, whereas the Vivo S1 has a triple camera setup. Another thing that we should not ignore is the Storage and RAM configurations available for the users. Vivo S1 comes with the 4GB/64GB and 6GB/128GB configuration, whereas Vivo S1 Pro comes with a single 8GB/128GB configuration. 

The Vivo S1 Price in India is fixed at Rs. 17,999/- only. The pricing is justified considering the specifications packed into this device. 

Final Words 

Vivo S1 is a power-packed device, which is suitable for regular usage as well as gaming requirements. The polycarbonate case is a fingerprint magnet and has issues with heating; it is quite acceptable. Also, Vivo has taken the initiative of Make In India. So, Vivo is a Make in India brand with manufacturing partners in India. It’s a great device if you support the Make in India Initiative and want the best performance in this price range.
