The first smartphone to use Mediatek’s new Dimensity 1100 chipset is vivo S9, a smartphone running OriginOS based on Android 11 and sporting an old school notch.
It is not clear why vivo is going retro with the notch when there are sexier implementations around. Anyway, vivo S9 has a 6.4” AMOLED screen, and the notch houses dual front-facing cameras, made up of a 44MP main lens and an ultra-wide supporting lens.
Supporting the Dimensity 1100 chipset is 12GB of RAM, a combination that should make for solid performance.
