vivo unveiled the S30 and S30 Pro mini in May, and if you know anything about Chinese smartphone makers, you know that they hate the number 4, due to prevailing tetraphobia in China. So it won’t surprise you to find out that there will be no S40 series, but that vivo is already working on the S50 family. A few details about these have been outed today.
The S50 Pro mini will keep the exact same display size its predecessor has – 6.31″. On the other hand, the S50’s screen will shrink to 6.59″ from the S30’s 6.67″. Both of the new phones have “1.5K” resolution and flat panels.

The S50 has a metal frame and a flagship-level periscope telephoto camera, while the S50 Pro mini is rumored to get all-round “flagship hardware”, though more information isn’t available at the moment.
According to a previous leak, the S50 Pro mini will be powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 SoC, and will have an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, as well as three rear cameras with a periscope telephoto among them. The S50 series is expected to become official in China next month, competing with Oppo’s Reno15 series and the Honor 500 devices.
