Vivo S2 Review: 7050mAh Battery, Curved AMOLED Display, and 3000 Nits Brightness

After seven years, vivo has finally brought back its S series in India, and the vivo S2 marks a proper comeback. This vivo S2 review covers everything you need to know before buying this mid-range smartphone, from its massive 7050mAh battery to its 3D curved AMOLED display and IP68/IP69 rated durability. The vivo S2 comes with a 6.83 inch curved AMOLED display offering a 2800x1260 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 3000 nits, making outdoor visibility excellent even in harsh Indian summer sunlight. The panel also supports P3 wide color gamut for accurate and vibrant colors. Despite housing a huge 7050mAh battery, the vivo S2 maintains a slim profile at just 7.9mm thickness (8.1mm for the Silver White variant), weighing between 197 to 199 grams depending on the color chosen. It is available in three color options: Sapphire Blue, Regal Brown, and Silver White, with a metallic frame and matte finish plastic composite back for added durability. Powering the device is the MediaTek Dimensity 7360 Turbo processor, delivering an AnTuTu benchmark score of around 942000, paired with LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. On the camera front, the vivo S2 features a 50 megapixel primary sensor with OIS along with a 2 megapixel depth sensor, and a 32 megapixel front camera. Portrait modes at 28mm, 42mm, and 56mm are available, along with up to 10x zoom and 4K video recording at 30fps from both front and rear cameras. AI features like AI Erase and AI Color Adjustment are also on board, along with a dedicated underwater photography mode. Durability is a major highlight here, with IP68 and IP69 ratings meaning the phone can survive fresh water submersion as well as high pressure, high temperature water jets, a rare feature in this slim form factor segment. Connectivity includes dual 5G SIM support, dual band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.4, USB Type-C 2.0 with OTG support, and full satellite navigation. Note that NFC and FM radio are not included, so contactless payments are not supported on this device. The vivo S2 runs OriginOS 6 based on Android 16 out of the box. The vivo S2 price in India is set at Rs 39,999 for the 8GB plus 128GB variant. Considering the massive battery, IP69 durability, 3000 nits curved AMOLED display, and 50 megapixel OIS camera setup, this pricing positions the vivo S2 as a strong competitor to the OnePlus Nord series and Nothing phone lineup. After a long gap, vivo has delivered a genuinely impressive comeback with the S series.
