Editorial report

vivo S16e 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The vivo S16e suits buyers who want a standout screen in a slim phone and can do without Google Services. Its main trade-offs are a battery with less capacity than most phones from its time and a camera sensor that is smaller than most. Its overall NeoScore is 6.3, and it rates better than most phones launched around the same time.

The 6.62-inch AMOLED display pairs a 120 Hz refresh rate with 1300 nits peak brightness, higher than most phones of its time. At 7.7 mm thick, the phone is also among the thinnest of its time. The Samsung Exynos 1080 and its AnTuTu v9 result accompany performance better than most; connectivity also rates better than most, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.2.

The 50 MP camera has optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps, but its 1/2.76-inch sensor is smaller than those in most phones launched around the same time. The 4600 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 66 W charging is more powerful than most. This version has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage; the phone is also sold with 8 GB / 256 GB and 12 GB / 256 GB. It runs Android 11 and has no Google Services. It is a stronger fit for buyers prioritizing the display and fast charging than for those who need greater battery capacity or Google services.
