Editorial report

vivo S17 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The vivo S17 suits people who put a standout display first, though its battery has less capacity than most phones of its time and its main camera aperture is dimmer than most. Overall, it ranks better than most phones launched around the same time.

Its 6.78-inch AMOLED display has a 120 Hz refresh rate and 453 ppi pixel density, among the highest of its time. Peak brightness of 1,300 nits is higher than that of most phones from the same period. The 7.5 mm body is among the slimmest of its time. AnTuTu v10 gives it a score of 632,216, better than most; this configuration pairs 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of non-expandable storage.

The 50 MP main camera includes optical stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps, while an 8 MP ultra-wide camera adds a wider-angle option. The camera setup overall is better than most phones of its time, but the main camera's f/1.9 aperture is dimmer than most. Connectivity also ranks better than most, with Wi-Fi 6E and dual SIM. Its 80 W charging power is higher than that of most phones of its time, alongside a 4,600 mAh battery. This China configuration has no Google Services; the vivo S17 is sold in configurations from 8 GB / 256 GB to 12 GB / 512 GB. With a NeoScore of 6.8, it is a strong fit for display-focused buyers who also value fast charging.
