The Vivo S18 series was introduced in China back in December, comprising three models: Vivo S18, Vivo S18 Pro, and Vivo S18e. These models offer a range of features catering to different user needs.

Unlike the existing color options with glass backs, the new Diamond Purple variant will showcase a unique leather finish. The leather back will feature three-dimensional diamond patterns, reminiscent of the design seen on the Vivo X Flip clamshell foldable smartphone.

The Vivo S18 in the Diamond Purple color variant will be available in the top-end configuration, offering 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. This model is priced at ¥2,999, approximately $420.
