Vivo has brought two new phones to the table with the official launch of the Vivo S60 and Vivo S60 Vitality Edition in China. Announced on May 29, 2026 and hitting shelves on June 3, both phones pack solid hardware at prices that make sense for what you get. The Vivo S60 is built for people who want top-tier performance, while the Vitality Edition is more for those who just need a reliable phone for daily use. For anyone watching out for Vivo S60 Nepal availability, here is a full look at what the phone offers before it possibly shows up in local stores.
- Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 (4nm), 12/16GB RAM & up to 512GB storage
- 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED, 144Hz & 5,000 nits peak brightness
- 50MP triple rear camera with OIS & 50MP front camera
- 7,200mAh battery with 90W fast charging & reverse wired charging
Design and Display
The Vivo S60 has a solid build measuring 157.5 x 74.3 x 7.9 mm and weighs around 207 grams. It comes with a glass front, aluminum frame, and glass back. Looking at the back, the camera layout will remind you of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, which is not a bad thing at all since it looks really good. The phone also has IP68 and IP69 ratings, meaning dust and water are not something you need to stress about in day to day use.
On the front, the Vivo S60 has a 6.59-inch AMOLED screen with 1.5K resolution (1260 x 2750 pixels) and a screen to body ratio of around 90.7%. With a 144Hz refresh rate, everything on screen feels buttery smooth whether you are scrolling through social media or playing games. The 5,000 nits peak brightness means the screen stays readable even in direct sunlight. For people who are on their phone most of the day, the 4320Hz PWM anti-flicker dimming and SGS Low Blue Light certification are a welcome touch for keeping eye fatigue in check.
Performance
The Vivo S60 runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 (4nm) chip with an octa-core CPU clocked at up to 3.0GHz and an Adreno 735 GPU. It comes in two memory options, 12GB and 16GB RAM, with storage going up to 512GB. There is no card slot, so the storage you pick is what you get.
The phone runs OriginOS 6 on top of Android 16 and comes with Vivo’s Blur River Fluidity Engine, which the company says keeps the phone running well for up to five years. For anyone who games a lot or runs heavy apps daily, the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 inside the Vivo S60 is more than capable of keeping up.
Camera
The Vivo S60 comes with a triple rear camera setup. The main shooter is a 50MP f/1.8 Sony LYTIA sensor with a 1/1.56 inch sensor size and PDAF with OIS. Sitting alongside it is a 50MP f/2.7 Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, PDAF, and OIS as well. Rounding things out is an 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide camera with a 115 degree field of view. Vivo says the OIS on both the main and telephoto cameras delivers stabilization close to gimbal level, which really shows in low light and action shots.
The phone supports 4K and 1080p video recording on the rear cameras with gyro EIS and also has a color spectrum sensor built in. Up front, the Vivo S60 carries a 50MP f/2.0 selfie camera with a 1/2.76 inch sensor, autofocus, and 4K video support. Vivo says low light selfies come out pretty decent too, which is always good to hear.

Battery and Connectivity
The Vivo S60 packs a 7,200mAh silicon-carbon battery with 90W fast charging and reverse wired charging support. Vivo says the phone can last more than a day on regular use and delivers around 10.2 hours of gaming on a single charge. That is a solid number for a phone sitting at this size and weight.
For connectivity, the Vivo S60 supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6 with dual band, Bluetooth 5.4 with aptX Lossless and LHDC 5 codec support, NFC, GPS with support for BDS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS and NavIC, and USB Type C with OTG. There is also an infrared port which is handy for controlling TVs and other devices. The phone has stereo speakers but skips the 3.5mm headphone jack. For security, it uses an under display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor along with the usual accelerometer, gyro, compass, and proximity sensors.
