vivo S15

The Vivo S15 series has expanded with two new additions: the standard S15 and the S15 Pro. The first phone in the series was the S15E, which marked the beginning of this lineup. Both the S15 and S15 Pro utilize Samsung's 120Hz AMOLED panels, ensuring a smooth gaming experience. However, there are significant differences between these two models. The S15 Pro is powered by Vivo's first Dimensity 8100 chip, paired with advanced gaming-grade cooling technology that reduces the chipset temperature by 1.2 degrees Celsius. The phone features a 6.56-inch AMOLED display with a 1080x2376 pixel resolution, utilizing Samsung's E5 emissive materials. It boasts a maximum brightness of 1500 nits and supports HDR10+ along with factory-installed color calibration. In contrast, the standard S15 is equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 870 processor, which, according to the manufacturer, has been paired with VMM (Vivo Memory Management) technology for improved performance. The phone also features a 6.62-inch AMOLED display, but it uses older E4 materials and supports HDR10+. The camera setup on both phones is nearly identical, featuring a 50MP Sony IMX766v primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 32MP selfie camera. The S15 Pro has a larger battery capacity (4500mAh) but slightly faster charging capabilities, while the standard S15 has a 66W charger. Overall, the Vivo S15 series offers high-performance devices at competitive prices. However, the choice between these two phones largely depends on individual preferences and needs, with the S15 Pro boasting more advanced features like Dimensity 8100 chip and improved gaming performance.
