At the end of 2020, the last product series of vivo product axis was released - vivo S12 series. Imagery is still the aspect of vivo S12 focusing on optimization and upgrading. This upgrade not only revolves around the "aesthetics" of the imaging system, but also focuses on "beautification" from the hardware and software aspects of the mobile phone.
Recently, the author Temu got the vivo S12 Pro for evaluation and testing. The test model is the 12GB+256GB top-mounted version. The official guide price is 3699 yuan.
Vivo S series has always been the design idea of slim body, for which vivo S12 Pro maintains a very thin and light fuselage, with a size of 159.46mm long * 73.27mm wide * 7.36 mm thick, 171g of body weight. The whole machine is more slender and slender in vision, and the light and stylish temperament of vivo S12 Pro is more prominent than that of the previous generation of products.
Vivo S12 Pro back is continued the characteristics of the previous generation of photochromic discoloration, vivo S12 Pro has a total of 3 colors of warm gold, island blue, yao black, the evaluation model is warm gold color, warm gold as a warm color color, with different angles there will be blue glow, and the effect of the chameleon car film of the car is similar.
The "warm gold" version of the vivo S12 Pro also debuted the photochromic 2.0 body process. In low-light or low-light environments, the back of the phone presents a warm and soft golden body. Compared with the photochromic body of the previous generation, the new material makes the color contrast before and after the color change significantly increase a lot, and the higher light transmittance of the machine back glass can change two different machine back colors and atmospheres.
In terms of performance, the machine is equipped with MediaTek Tianji 1200 vivo customized version processor, CPU frequency up to 3.0GHz, 1+3+4 triple cluster architecture design, compared with the previous generation performance increased by 22%. It also adds UFS3.1 high-speed flash memory and gaming antenna design, with dual-effect memory fusion +4G technology. At the same time, with superconducting thermal cool heat dissipation, 240Hz touch sampling rate, game BOOST and other functions, vivo S12 Pro's game performance is also very good.
The performance output should not only be strong, but also stable. Vivo S12 Pro adopts the upper layer of aluminum alloy motherboard, the thermal conductivity of the aluminum alloy bracket is 226% higher than that of the previous generation of magnesium alloy, and also uses a large area VC vapor heat shield + graphite heat dissipation film + equal heat insulation film design, through superconducting liquid cold heat dissipation, to ensure the continuous stable output and use experience of performance.
The biggest change of vivo S12 Pro is the use of curved screen, which is also the first time that the vivo S series adopts a curved screen design. The front is a curved screen with a 6.56-inch 90Hz refresh rate, and the bangs screen is a 50 million high-pixel dual-camera selfie lens. With the curved design of the rear shell, the grip of the whole phone is very comfortable.
In terms of imaging, the vivo S12 Pro rear uses a 108 million pixel main camera, an ultra-wide angle of 8 million pixels and a macro lens. The 108-megapixel 1/1.52 main camera CMOS has also become standard in the S12 series.
The front lens is still a dual camera system, equipped with a 50-megapixel Samsung JNV ultra-clear sensor, with a large aperture of F2.0, support for four-in-one pixel technology, and can still bring excellent selfie photos in low-light environments. Vivo S12 Pro is to put the technology of other models of rear main camera on the front camera, naturally has the advantage of a larger sensor and a stronger natural bokeh effect.
In addition, vivo S12 Pro retains the soft halo (screen fill light) on the basis of the use of the front two-color temperature four soft light, the number is twice as much as the previous generation, the front soft light supports the adjustment of cold and warm color temperature, you can customize the cold and warm atmosphere, so that the "beauty of the dark night" has more choices.
Temu has vivo's past products of the image system experience experience, it can be said that the iterative upgrade of the image system can always see some breakthroughs, vivo S12 Pro is no exception, the beauty is more realistic, the dark light performance with the progress of hardware technology and the algorithm is more intelligent, feedback to the final picture quality is still improved. For example, under different lights, the light and shadow effects of the face and the skin tone presented are obviously different. This is the pursuit of extreme reduction.
Of course, vivo S12 Pro also has another highlight is the game function, we can obviously experience in testing a mainstream popular FPS game, the picture quality is full, can run stably for 2 hours, during which the frame does not fall and does not stutter, and the heat dissipation performance is also good. In addition, based on the design of VC vapor heat shield + graphite heat dissipation film + heat reduction film, there is no hot hand.
Vivo S12 Pro is also equipped with a number of new self-developed APP this time. Among them, there are "atomic reading" with newly designed interfaces and dynamics and high-quality content, and there are also "atomic notes" that have been greatly enhanced and even not lost to some professional note-taking applications.
In terms of battery life, the battery and fast charging are a combination of 44W+4300mAh, which is a more conventional configuration.
From this point of view, vivo S12 Pro has ushered in a comprehensive upgrade in terms of product strength, image functions, target user groups, and even in terms of cost performance.
It is worth mentioning that taking into account the two core advantages of the little fairies' favorite "beauty" and the "game" of young users in the Z era, the price of vivo S12 Pro is relatively close to the people, and the starting price of S12 series 2799 basically allows everyone to achieve "image freedom" and "game freedom".
