A 6.38-inch Super AMOLED screen is the headline feature here, running at 1080 x 2340 with a 19.5:9 ratio and roughly 404 ppi density, so text and colours stay sharp for a phone in this bracket. Under the hood sits Mediatek's Helio P65 chipset paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, expandable further via a dedicated microSD slot up to 256GB. It runs Android 9.0 with Funtouch 9 on top, and unlocking is handled by an under-display optical fingerprint sensor rather than a rear-mounted one.

Camera-wise, you get a triple setup on the back: a 16MP main lens, an 8MP ultrawide, and a 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots. Selfies are covered by a 32MP front camera, which is a notably high count for this segment. Battery capacity comes in at 4500mAh with 18W fast charging, enough for a full day of typical use without needing a top-up.

vivo S1 price in Malaysia starts from RM1099, and it's available in Diamond Black, Skyline Blue, and Cosmic Green.
