The claim
vivo's next S-series phone, the S70, has a 64MP Sony LYT-610 periscope telephoto with support for a 200mm teleconverter, a 6.59-inch 1.5K LTPS OLED screen and the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4.
Why we rated it Rumor
From tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, relayed by GSMArena; he says it is based on an engineering sample and that vivo tested, then dropped, a rear screen. DCS has a good record on Chinese phones, but this is a single source and vivo has said nothing. The S60 launched in May, so a late-2026 successor fits vivo's cadence. Update Oct 30: DCS added more detail, relayed by Gizmochina: the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, a 50MP main, 8MP ultrawide and 50MP selfie camera, and support for a 200mm teleconverter. It is still the same single tipster, and reports point to a November launch in China. Update Nov 9: Digital Chat Station's latest leak (via 91mobiles and My Mobile India) adds an S70 Pro alongside the S70: both reportedly use the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and a 6.59-inch 1.5K 144Hz OLED, the S70 with up to an 8,000mAh battery and the Pro with a 200MP main camera, 64MP periscope and 7,000mAh-plus battery, both with 90W charging. 91mobiles says the Pro may go global as the V90 Pro. Still one tipster and no word from vivo, so it stays a Rumor.
