May 19, 2025 — Vivo has officially announced the launch date for its highly anticipated vivo S30 and S30 Pro mini smartphones, confirming that the devices will debut on May 29 in China. Alongside the smartphones, the company will also unveil a slew of new ecosystem products including the vivo Pad 5 tablet, vivo TWS Air3 earbuds, and a 10,000 mAh 33W fast-charging power bank.
Sleek Design and Vibrant Color Options
The vivo S30 series will maintain a familiar aesthetic with dual vertically aligned cameras, accompanied by a third sensor positioned adjacent to the main module, above a ring-shaped LED flash. On the front, both phones will feature flat panels with a single center-aligned punch-hole for the selfie camera, delivering a clean and minimalistic design.
The phones will be offered in four attractive color variants:
-
Black
-
Mint Green (appears blue in renders)
-
Powder Pink
-
Lemon Yellow
In terms of styling, three colors will include a black camera island, while the Powder Pink model will feature a color-matched module, adding a touch of elegance and uniformity.
Vivo V60 Rebrand for Global Markets Likely
The vivo S series is traditionally exclusive to China, but international customers can expect the global versions under the vivo V60 lineup. This suggests that the S30 may debut globally as the vivo V60, while the S30 Pro mini could arrive as the vivo V60 Pro.
Expected Specifications
While full specifications are yet to be officially confirmed, leaks and early retail listings suggest:
-
vivo S30 (V60) could sport a 6.67-inch display, a 50MP telephoto lens, and a massive 6,500mAh battery.
-
vivo S30 Pro mini (V60 Pro) may be powered by the Dimensity 9400e chipset, offering a flagship-grade performance experience in a compact form factor.
Ecosystem Products Also Incoming
The May 29 launch event will be a significant one for vivo, also marking the debut of:
-
vivo Pad 5: A premium tablet expected to rival top Android slates.
-
vivo TWS Air3: A new generation of true wireless earbuds with upgraded sound and connectivity.
-
10,000mAh vivo Power Bank: Supporting 33W fast charging, aimed at on-the-go users needing quick top-ups.
