While most manufacturers are toning down their custom skins to look as close to stock as possible, the Vivo goes the China 20L knapsack agricultural battery sprayer Manufacturers other way round, customising every last bit of the operating system inside out. Though we are fans of the stock Android way of life, we were initially overwhelmed by FunTouchOS 9.0. It took us a while, and will indeed take anyone coming to this phone from another brand, a while, to get a hang of this interface.However, once we got used to it, we pretty much got hooked on to it. The insane tweakability hidden in a vast menu of settings ensures that you can tailor your Vivo S1 to look exactly how you want. From themes, and Always-On display customisations, to flashy transitions and a system-wide dark mode that even turns your own apps WhatsApp and Instagram dark, FunTouchOS has got it all.
The dark mode on the Vivo S1 gives a dark theme to your appsAdd to those possibilities the custom launchers, icon packs and mods that Android already offers and you basically have a phone that you can truly make your own.One complaint we had was that the dark mode is essentially a dark grey theme throughout the interface but doesn’t even provide the option for a completely black theme, which could’ve really helped save some battery life considering this phone has an AMOLED panel. Plus, we at the office, and a large number of users, really love an all-black dark mode. Hopefully, a future update brings us that.The software also has fresh takes on options like the one-hand mode, the Always-on display and the screen-off gestures that put the traditional implementations we’ve seen on other phones to shame.Take the One-handed mode for example, which lets you quickly swipe in and out from any edge in one motion to access it. It even allows you to custom-set the size of the shrunken screen rather than settle for preset options of 4-inch or 4.5-inch.One-hand mode on the Vivo S1The usability, attention to detail and sheer fun of the FunTouchOS win this department for the Vivo S1.CameraThe Vivo S1 has a triple camera setup on the rear comprising a main 16MP sensor, a 2MP depth sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide sensor. The camera app has loads of modes that will grab your attention almost immediately after you open it. It’s a bit overwhelming at first, more so if you’re new to the triple camera mania, but once you get used to the interface, this is an easy intuitive and fun app to use.The main sensor takes good pictures outdoors. There is little loss of detail and the Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF) is quick and accurate, which along with the assisting depth sensor, gives you a nice Bokeh effect on depth-of-field shots.
Moving indoors, shots didn’t lack detail in indoor lighting but grabbed a lot of noise, which is expected in mid-range phones. The performance indoors is average, to say the least.There is no 48MP sensor here, so the max resolution you can get with the rear camera is 16MP.The ultra-wide sensor is a welcome addition on the device. It works well, getting you a wider frame to capture, making it great for capturing a large crowd of posers, or a vast landscape.The 32MP front camera is amazing in outdoor as well as indoor lighting and unlike many front-facing cameras in this segment; it is not a fixed focus one. So you can tap on the area you want in focus while capturing a selfie.
The quality of the shots is good. In fact, we’d even say the front cam does better than the main rear sensor in some areas, especially indoors.The portrait mode also offers real-time lighting effects that can go anywhere between simply enhancing your selfie to making it look like a proper edited piece of art, literally at the flick of a switch; something similar to what Apple does with its camera software. Vivo S1’s real-time monochrome filtersPerformanceThe Vivo S1 rocks the MediaTek P65 Helio Octa-core processor clocked at 2GHz and the unit we have is the one with 6GB RAM. A well optimised Funtouch OS coupled with the generous amount of RAM ensures a snappy phone even with multiple apps running. There were no issues even with the fanciest transitions. The phone holds an Antutu score of 1,46,049 points.GamingWhile not exactly a gaming device, we were surprised to experience good gaming sessions on the Vivo S1 with both casual games like Mini Militia and heavy titles like PUBG. The Mali-G52 MP6 graphics ensure smooth rendering. PUBG not only supports HD graphics on ‘High’ framerate, but it also runs pretty well on it too.
