Vivo just launched Vivo S60 series and it is something worth talking about. The Vivo S60 and Vivo S60 Vitality Edition went official in China on May 29, and if you are someone who follows mid-range smartphones, this one deserves your attention. It is not trying to be a flagship. But it has a few tricks that even flagship buyers would appreciate.
1. The Battery Is Absolutely Massive
This is the headline feature and for good reason. Both the S60 and S60 Vitality Edition pack a 7,200mAh battery with 90W fast charging. To put that in perspective — most phones at this price come with a 5,000mAh battery. Vivo has gone almost 45% bigger. That means you could easily push two full days on a single charge with normal use. And when you do need to plug in, the 90W charging fills it back up fast. No more carrying a power bank everywhere you go. No more panicking at 15% before an important call. This battery just solves the problem.
2. The Screen Is Smooth and Looks Gorgeous
The S60 has a 6.59-inch 1260p AMOLED display running at 144Hz. It is big, it is sharp, and it is incredibly smooth to use. Whether you are scrolling through Instagram, watching a video, or gaming, everything just feels fluid. AMOLED means colours pop and blacks look genuinely deep.
And the symmetrical bezels around the screen make the whole phone look cleaner and more premium than the price suggests. Once you use a 144Hz screen daily, going back to anything slower feels painful.

3. The Cameras Are Seriously Impressive for Vivo S60 Launch Price
Here is where the standard S60 really pulls ahead. It has a triple rear camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, an 8MP ultrawide, and a 50MP IMX882 periscope telephoto with 3x optical zoom. That periscope telephoto is the big deal here.
Most phones in this price range either skip it entirely or give you a mediocre zoom lens. Vivo has used a Sony sensor with proper optical zoom, which means your zoomed-in shots actually look sharp and detailed instead of blurry and muddy. If you love photography, this camera system is worth getting excited about.
The Vitality Edition skips the telephoto and keeps things simpler with a dual camera setup — which is the main compromise you make for the lower price.
4. The Selfie Camera Is Genuinely Good
Both phones come with a 50MP front camera. Most phones at this price give you a 16MP or 20MP selfie shooter and move on. Vivo has put a proper 50MP sensor on the front, which makes a real difference in detail, skin tones, and sharpness especially in video calls and reels.
There are also new portrait modes and colour filters built specifically for the front camera, which is a nice touch for anyone who uses their selfie cam as much as the rear one.
5. The AI Camera Features Add Real Value
The S60 supports 4K Live capture, Cool White Portrait mode, customisable Live colour grading, and a new Starlight Live effect for night photography. These are not just buzzwords.
The Starlight Live effect in particular works really well for low-light shots, adding a cinematic shimmer that looks great without heavy editing. The 4K Live photos capture motion in a way that still photos simply cannot. Great for travel, events, and anything you want to remember properly.
Vivo S60 Launch Price In China
In China, the Vivo S60 starts at 3,599 yuan for the 12GB plus 256GB model, going up to 4,399 yuan for 16GB plus 512GB. The Vitality Edition starts at 2,899 yuan.
Converting to Indian Rupees roughly; the standard S60 starts at around Rs 41,500 going up to Rs 50,700. The Vitality Edition starts at approximately Rs 33,400.
