The first floating light carving process: Oriental aesthetics flowers bloom
From beautiful jade, green mountains and seas to flowers, the vivo S series continues to explore the expression of oriental aesthetic charm in modern design, incorporating delicate and gentle emotional communication. vivos18 series Flowers are inspired by the "flowers" in the oriental artistic conception, bringing together the shells that symbolize good luck, the flowers that represent prosperity, and the cloud brocade that means blessings, and use light and shadow and color to paint the picture scroll of "flowers blooming on the brocade", and also pass on the good blessings of "life is like a brocade, bloom to the fullest".
To this end, vivo pioneered the embossing process, through 13 million tangent lines, referring to the light and shade laws of light projection, to depict the three-dimensional and stretched dynamics of petals. At the same time, the first Yunjin glass process, with 4 million micron-level square diamonds, to achieve a restrained, rich layer of light and shadow soft transition, simulating the gold and silver thread woven by the cloud brocade-like brilliance and texture.
The design of the water-light cloud window is inspired by the windows of Chinese architecture that can be used for lighting and scenery. The innovative arrangement of two square windows with rounded corners has an R-angle that looks like a sparkling drop of water is about to overflow, and the metal sides are polished by diamond trimming. It not only retains the sense of order of the rectangular shape, but also uses a soft arc to create a smart and delicate one.

Committed to creating "the best mobile phone for shooting people", the S series aims for studio-level portraits, hoping to break this limitation.

Years of technological innovation have precipitated the portrait barrier of the S series, and the vivo S18 series studio-level portrait algorithm matrix brings vivo the closest to the optical level of bokeh effect so far. It separates the portrait from the background with extremely high hair-like detail and achieves an optical, natural, graded bokeh.
