Editorial report
vivo S18e 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The vivo S18e suits buyers looking for a slim phone with a very bright display; the trade-off is a battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. This configuration pairs 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage with a MediaTek Dimensity 7200. The phone is also sold with 12 GB / 256 GB and 12 GB / 512 GB.
Its 6.67-inch AMOLED display reaches 1800 nits peak brightness and covers 90% of the front. That brightness is among the highest of phones from its time, and its 7.7 mm thickness makes it thinner than most. The 120 Hz refresh rate is typical. Its AnTuTu score of 738,952 is higher than that of most phones launched around the same time; storage is 256 GB and cannot be expanded.
The 4800 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 80 W charging power is higher than that of most phones of its time. The vivo S18e has no Google Services, a notable limitation for anyone who relies on them. Its 50 MP camera has optical image stabilization and typical specifications for its time; it also records 4K video at 30 fps.
With an overall NeoScore of 6.7, the vivo S18e stands out most for display brightness, slimness, and charging power. It is worth considering for buyers who prioritize those features and can do without Google Services.
