As expected, vivo went ahead and announced its S17 series smartphones today in China. We have the vivo S17, the vivo S17t and the vivo S17 Pro which together with the recently announced vivo S17e complete the series of powerful four. The new devices sport the same 10-bit curved OLED displays (1260 x 2800px resolution and 120Hz refresh rates) and 4,600mAh batteries with 80W fast charging. The differences are in chipset and camera configurations, so let’s take a closer look.
