The vivo S50 got unveiled in December alongside the S50 Pro mini, and today vivo also announced the S50t. Now, if you’re wondering what’s different in this model compared to the original S50, brace yourself, as it’s just one detail and we’re willing to bet you can’t guess what.
If you said “the UFS storage version”, then you’re correct. The S50 uses UFS 4.1 storage, while the S50t goes with the older (and cheaper) UFS 3.1. That’s it. That’s the only difference. In every other respect, the two handsets are identical.
So, the S50t, like the S50, comes with a 6.59-inch 1260×2750 AMOLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate, the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, 12/16GB of RAM, 512GB of storage, a 50MP main camera with OIS, a 50MP periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom and OIS, an 8MP ultrawide, a 50MP selfie snapper, and a 6,500 mAh battery with support for 90W wired charging.
The S50t with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage is priced at CNY 3,199 ($468), while the version with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage is CNY 3,499 ($512). In both cases, the S50t is CNY 100 ($14) cheaper than the S50.
