Editorial report

vivo S15 Pro technical sheet

The vivo S15 Pro suits buyers looking for a standout display and broad connectivity who can accept a smaller-than-most battery, a less bright main-camera aperture, and no Google Services. This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage; the phone is also sold with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage.

Its 6.56-inch AMOLED display reaches 1500 nits peak brightness, among the highest figures for phones launched around the same time. The 89.6% screen-to-body ratio is also among the best. A 120 Hz refresh rate is typical rather than a comparative advantage. The 256 GB storage capacity is greater than what most phones of its time offer, and the storage uses UFS 3.1. The MediaTek Dimensity 8100 and AnTuTu result of 829,500 place performance better than most phones launched around the same time.

The camera is better than most phones of its time. Its 1/1.56-inch main sensor is larger than most, and optical image stabilization is included; 50 MP resolution is typical. The f/1.9 aperture is less bright than most. The ultrawide camera has 13 MP. Connectivity is among the best of its time, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.3.

The 4500 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 80 W charging is among the fastest of phones launched around the same time. Overall, the vivo S15 Pro is better than most, with a NeoScore of 7.0. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize the display, connectivity, and camera specifications.
