Vivo Y7S Announced in China With Triple Rear Cameras & 4,500mAh Battery

Many recent leaks had suggested that the China-based Vivo would announce a phone dubbed Vivo S1 with Helio P65 SoC and triple rear cameras. However, the name Vivo S1 would cause confusion since there was another phone with the exact name in China with a pop-up camera instead. Because of that, the handset was just launched under the Vivo S1 name in the global market, and it goes official in China as well, but under the Vivo Y7s moniker instead.

The handset is available in a single variant with 6GB of RAM / 128GB of storage for RMB 1,798 (around Rs. 18,100). Users have two color options to choose from - Wave Blue and Sea Breeze.
