Vivo has announced the S9 5G, alongside its more budget S9e 5G sibling. The main event here has the new, 6nm Dimensity 1100 SoC, which is now packaged in a distinctly iPhone 12-like design, complete with a notch for a dual selfie camera. It can be pre-ordered from now in China, starting at ~US$464 for an 8GB RAM base model.

Today (March 3, 2021) is a day on which Meizu kicked the major Android phone launch event season in China off with its flagship 18 series. Vivo is another company that has gone in a slightly different way with the S9. This phone has, in accordance with its recent leaks, gone with the Dimensity 1100 processor instead. It has also arrived with its less-expected S9e sibling.
