Vivo has recently revealed its flagship series for 2024, known as the X200 series, which comes with bigger batteries, enhanced camera systems, and a more robust chipset.
Mysterious Device Discovery
A new device, identified by the model number V2429A, has appeared on TENAA, featuring a massive 6,500mAh battery (with a rated capacity of 6365mAh), which is significantly larger than the batteries found in the X200 series. However, the listing provides more information than just the battery size. Let's dive into the details.
Specifications of Vivo V2429A
This unknown device showcases a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2800×1260 (1.5K) and a color depth of 1073.74 million colors. While the model number is quite similar to the Vivo X Fold 4 (V2429), the listing does not indicate the presence of a second screen, implying that it is designed as a bar phone. Interestingly, the model number also resembles that of the Vivo S19 (V2364A), which was launched in May this year and features a 6000mAh battery.
Performance Details
Under the hood, the Vivo V2429A is powered by an octa-core processor, clocked at 2.63 GHz (presumably the base frequency). The dimensions of the device are 160.35 x 74.18 x 7.19 mm, which closely aligns with those of the Vivo S19, measuring 7.2 mm in thickness. Given these similarities and the timing of the S19's release, it’s plausible that the V2429A is actually the Vivo S20.
Despite having a bigger battery, the device weighs only 185.5 grams, which is 6 grams lighter than the S19. This weight reduction could be due to the use of an advanced silicon-carbon anode battery.
Memory and Connectivity Options
The phone comes in various RAM configurations of 8GB, 12GB, or 16GB, alongside storage options ranging from 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, to 1TB. It also supports 5G connectivity, Infrared, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and includes an under-display fingerprint scanner and facial recognition capability.
Camera Setup
Although the chipset details for this new model are yet to be confirmed, its supposed predecessor, the Vivo S19, is equipped with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 (4 nm) processor. This chipset achieves over 1,100 points in Geekbench single-core benchmarks and around 3,300 points in multi-core tests. In the 3DMark Wild Life Performance test, it scores between 5,900 and 6,000 points.
In terms of photography, the phone features a dual camera setup on the back with a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP secondary sensor, while the front houses a 50MP selfie camera.
