vivo S1 Pro Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
3.5/5
Verdict
The Vivo S1 Pro tries to build upon its quad-camera setup, high RAM and storage while offsetting the need for better processing and more intuitive software experience. It would have been reasonable to expect these compromises had the camera been up to the mark as compared to its competing devices. However, at this point, it appears that Xiaomi and Realme are offering better value-for-money propositions.
Pros
- Good looking design
- Decent battery
- Display is up to the mark
Cons
- Poor choice of processor for the price
- Please improve the software experience

The camera front is where Vivo's money business is. It is, however, the same quad-camera setup seen on the Vivo V17 and V17 Pro smartphones. You get a 48MP primary camera with an f/1.8 aperture, an 8MP ultra-wide camera with an f/2.2 aperture, a 2MP macro sensor and a 2MP depth sensor all housed in a diamond-shaped cluster like the international version of the V17. However, unlike the V17, international or otherwise, the S1 Pro currently lacks a dedicated night mode for low-light photography. I have been told that Vivo will be adding it in the next software update but as of now this review will not address any night mode shots.
