New phones from the Vivo have hit the Chinese markets in the ending days of 2021, taking it by storm. The predecessors of Vivo S10 and S10 pro, which came to the markets in mid of 2021, are released with the names of S12 and S12 pro. The new phone consists of a 44W fast-charging technology. This 44W fast charging is not unique to this series as S10 and S10 pro are already equipped with this feature. This phone might possibly be hitting the Chinese markets at the start of the next year.

It was expected that the phones might be having a Dimensity 1200, Snapdragon 888 or Snapdragon 778G+ processors, but in reality, although the s12 Pro did come with Dimensity 1200, the s12 came with Dimensity 1100 instead of the rumored Snapdragon778G+ or Snapdragon 888.

The new phones from the ‘S’ series are running on the OriginOS Ocean, no surprise there, but, the question that arises is that when this phone will hit the international market, which OS will be used in the new phones. Will they be sticking with the FuntouchOS user interference (UI) or are they going to actually change their OS and will be coming out of the box this time.

The other interesting thing about this phone is that this time Vivo is focusing more on the front-end of the cameras with S12 pro having the much-expected dual camera setup with main camera having a 50MP sensor along with an 8MP ultrawide sensor. The main rear camera is a whopping 108MP with a triple camera setup. The phone contains a mediocre 90Hz refreshing screen with an AMOLED display with full HD+ resolution, making it faster than S10 and S10 pro.

iQoo, the subsidiary of Vivo, has launched two new phones, Neo 5 SE and Neo 5s, with 66W fast-charging. Both phones are powered by Qualcomm chipsets. The powerful Snapdragon 870 is embedded in Neo 5 SE, while the even more powerful and energy-efficient Snapdragon 888 is embedded in Neo 5s. Both the Neo 5s and Neo 5SE are equipped with a triple-camera system having a primary camera of 50MP sensor in Neo5 SE while a camera of 48MP sensor in Neo5s. Both the phones have the same front selfie camera having 16MP wide angle sensor.

The phones are equipped with an operating system based on OriginOS Ocean, which is based on Android 11.
