Vivo S2 launching in India on August 6: Here's what to expect

Vivo is all set to launch the S2 in India on August 6, and ahead of the big day, the company has already revealed the colour options and key specs. The S2 will come in three colours, featuring a 6.83-inch display, a MediaTek Dimensity 7360-Turbo chipset, and a 32-megapixel front camera. Both the Vivo India website and Amazon are actively teasing the launch right now.

Specifications 
Vivo shared the full spec sheet through a newsroom post on Monday. The phone will be available in Regal Bronze, Sapphire Blue, and Silk White. Powering it is the MediaTek Dimensity 7360-Turbo chip, which Vivo claims scores around 9,70,000 on AnTuTu.

Battery life should be solid too, with a 7,050mAh cell inside. The display is a 6.83-inch 3D curved AMOLED panel with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Vivo says it can hit 3,000 nits of peak brightness, has a pixel density of 449ppi, and covers 93.82 percent of the front with screen.
