Vivo could be preparing to expand its S2 series in India with a new smartphone. The Vivo S2 FE is reportedly set to debut alongside the Vivo V80, although the company has not officially confirmed the second handset yet. A recent leak has revealed the expected price range, specifications, design details and colour options of the rumoured smartphone.
If the leaked information is accurate, the Vivo S2 FE could target buyers looking for a large AMOLED display, a MediaTek 5G chipset and a high-capacity battery without crossing the Rs. 40,000 mark. Here is what the latest leak suggests.
Launch
The Vivo V80 is scheduled to launch in India on October 6 at 12 pm IST. According to tipster Ahsan Kharbai, the Vivo S2 FE could be introduced at the same event.
However, Vivo has not officially confirmed the S2 FE’s India launch. The company also has not started teasing the smartphone, so the reported launch timing should be treated as unconfirmed until an official announcement arrives.
The leaked images reportedly show the phone in black and green colour options. These could be among the variants offered in India if the device launches as described.
Price
The Vivo S2 FE is tipped to be priced below Rs. 40,000 in India. The leak does not provide a precise starting price or details about the expected RAM and storage configurations.
This positioning would put the phone in a competitive segment where buyers often compare display quality, camera hardware, battery capacity and overall performance. Vivo could use the S2 FE’s large battery and AMOLED screen as key selling points.
Display
The rumoured Vivo S2 FE could feature a 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED display. The panel is also expected to support a refresh rate of up to 120Hz.
A 1.5K resolution should offer sharper visuals than a conventional Full HD+ panel, while the 120Hz refresh rate could make scrolling and supported animations appear smoother. The display is also tipped to use a centred hole-punch cutout for the front camera.
For users who frequently watch videos, browse social media or play games, the combination of a large AMOLED panel and a high refresh rate could be one of the phone’s main attractions.
Performance
Under the hood, the Vivo S2 FE is tipped to use an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 7300e 5G chipset. The processor belongs to MediaTek’s Dimensity 7000 series and is expected to provide 5G connectivity alongside everyday smartphone performance.
The phone could reportedly use LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. However, the leaked information does not specify the available memory and storage capacities.
The combination could give the S2 FE a reasonably capable hardware platform, although real-world performance will depend on the final configuration and Vivo’s software optimisation.
Cameras
Photography could be handled by a dual-camera setup on the rear. The primary camera is tipped to use a 50-megapixel Sony IMX852 sensor, while a 2-megapixel secondary camera could accompany it.
At the front, the phone is reportedly expected to feature a 32-megapixel selfie camera. The sensor could be used for selfies and video calls.
The leaked design images show a square camera module positioned towards the upper-left portion of the rear panel. It appears to house two camera lenses and an LED flash.
Battery
One of the more notable specifications in the leak is the claimed 10,000mAh battery. If confirmed, this would give the Vivo S2 FE a particularly large battery capacity compared with many mainstream smartphones.
The phone is also tipped to support 44W wired fast charging. A large battery can provide greater endurance, although actual battery life will depend on factors such as display brightness, network usage, applications and software optimisation.
Design
The leaked images suggest that the Vivo S2 FE could feature a flat rear panel with a square-shaped camera deco. The power button and volume controls appear to be positioned on the right edge.
A USB Type-C port is reportedly placed along the bottom. The phone is also tipped to feature an in-display fingerprint scanner.
Another notable claim is the presence of IP68 and IP69 ratings. If confirmed, these ratings would indicate a high level of protection against dust and water exposure, although users should still follow Vivo’s official usage guidance.
Outlook
The Vivo S2 FE remains an unconfirmed device for now, but the leaked specifications point toward a smartphone focused on a large display, substantial battery capacity and 5G connectivity. Its reported sub-Rs. 40,000 pricing could make it an interesting addition to Vivo’s lineup if the specifications and launch details are confirmed.
The biggest details still awaiting official confirmation include the exact price, RAM and storage variants, availability and whether the Vivo S2 FE will actually launch alongside the Vivo V80 in India.
