It was recently revealed that Vivo might launch its Vivo S1 Pro in India in mid-January 2020. The smartphone has already debuted in China in May this year. One major design change that the Indian variant is expected to have is in the camera module. It's likely to have a diamond-shaped camera module instead of a vertical setup featured in the Chinese variant.
As per a new report by 91Mobiles, Vivo S1 Pro might come in an 8 GB RAM + 128 GB variant and is likely to be priced at Rs 19,990. The report shared a video as well that suggests the smartphone will come with a diamond-shaped module. It is expected to have a quad camera setup that includes a 48 MP primary sensor and a 32 MP front camera.
