Vivo has a reputation for releasing two generations of S-series smartphones each year in China. In May 2024, the company introduced the S19 lineup, followed by the S20 series in November. Thus, it’s likely that the upcoming S-series phones will be announced around May this year. However, there has been some chatter about whether the next version will be known as the S21 or S30. A recent leak from the tipster Panda is Bald has indicated the name of Vivo’s next S-series for the Chinese market.

Naming the New Series

According to the insider, Vivo plans to skip the “21” label and move straight to the “S30” lineup. Regarding color choices, the tipster shared images of earlier S-series devices in shades of blue, gold, pink, and black, hinting that the Vivo S30 series will come in at least these four colors.

Upcoming Launch Events

Currently, Vivo is not expected to discuss the S30 series as it is concentrating on the launch of the Vivo X200 Ultra, which is likely to take place in the latter half of this month. Along with the X200 Ultra, the company will also unveil the Vivo X200S, Vivo Pad 5 Pro, Vivo Pad SE, and Watch 5. Thus, it’s probable that Vivo will begin teasing the S30 series after the launch of these products.

Specifications to Look Out For

Recently, tipster Digital Chat Station disclosed that the Vivo S30 will sport a 6.67-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and will run on the new Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor. There’s also talk of another model with a smaller size, featuring a 6.31-inch OLED screen and the Dimensity 9300 Plus chipset. It wouldn’t be shocking if the company decides to name it the Vivo S30 Pro Mini as a more affordable option compared to the powerful Vivo X200 Pro Mini.
