Vivo S6 5G: Specifications and Features
The Vivo S6 5G is a decent mid-range smartphone, but it does not feature the 2020 features like high refresh rate screen, 64MP camera and fast charging. Vivo has added a 6.44-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED screen on the front with 20:9 aspect ratio and an in-display fingerprint scanner. The phone sports a waterdrop notch unlike the punch-hole screen we are seeing a lot on smartphones these days. At the heart of the phone is Samsung’s Exynos 980 chipset which is paired with 6GB/8GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB of onboard storage. The phone also offers 5G support with the help of integrated 5G modem. Connectivity options on the Vivo S6 5G include 5G, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, GLONASS and USB Type-C port. This is not the first time we are seeing Vivo using Exynos 980 chipset on its smartphones as the recently launched Vivo X30 series feature the same SoC from South Korean brand Samsung. Vivo has added a quad-camera setup on the backside of the S6 5G. The phone has a 48MP primary lens, 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP macro sensor. It runs Android 10-based FunTouch OS out of the box and is backed by a 4390mAh battery with 18W fast charging. The phone also has a 3.5mm headphone jack but lacks microSD card slot for storage expansion.
