Editorial report

vivo S20 Pro 12 GB / 512 GB / China technical sheet

The vivo S20 Pro suits buyers looking for an all-round phone with a bright display and a versatile camera setup. Its main camera’s f/1.9 aperture is worse than that of most phones of its time, and the phone has no Google Services.

The 6.67-inch AMOLED display pairs 460 ppi with 5000-nit peak brightness; both figures are among the highest of phones of its time. Its 7.5 mm body is also among the slimmest. Performance is better than that of most phones launched around the same time, while the camera is among the best. The telephoto camera adds 3x optical zoom, among the highest of its time. The main camera’s aperture, however, is worse than that of most contemporaries. Its 90 W fast charging is higher than that of most phones of its time, and connectivity is better than that of most phones launched around the same time.

This configuration pairs 12 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage. The vivo S20 Pro is also sold in configurations up to 16 GB / 512 GB. Its battery has a capacity of 5500 mAh. Other documented features include Android 15, IP64 resistance, NFC, and stereo speakers; it has no Google Services.

With a NeoScore of 7.8 and strengths in display, camera, and charging, the vivo S20 Pro is a strong fit for buyers who prioritize those features and can do without Google Services.
