This device is also available in offline platform such as Reliance digital, Poorvika, Big C, Lot, Sangeetha, Croma and Vijay sales.

👉 My Opinion:

     All New Vivo S1 comes with Mediatek Helio P65 SoC which is based on 12 nm technology and also this is a first device using this processor so, we can't say anything about device performance but on paper the processor performance is as similar to Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 SoC. In terms of camera it offers decent camera performance as it has triple rear camera setup and 32 MP front facing camera. Since this device is a part of new series so we have to see what Vivo S1 offers starting with pros of the device:
1. Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS)
2. Scotch Sensation 3D Glass Protection
3. 18 W dual engine fast charging
4. In display fingerprint scanner
5. Dedicated SDcard slot
6. 32 MP Selfie camera (4 in 1 pixel binning)

7. 4500 mAh battery

Here are con's of Vivo S1:
1. Not that much powerful hardware as per pricing
2. No pop up camera where as other devices offer pop up camera
3. No USB Type C
4. Virtual gyroscope

     I think the costing of device is decent for 4 GB Ram and 128 GB Rom variant but if we look at other two variant then the costing is high. There are also other options available at this price point such as Realme X, Oppo K3, Vivo Z1 Pro, Motorola One Vision and Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro.
