Vivo S7 with 44-megapixel dual-selfie camera to launch on Aug 3

Vivo is gearing up for a new smartphone launch on August 3. Called Vivo S7, it will be one of the first Vivo phones to sport a 44-megapixel selfie camera.

Ahead of the official launch, Vivo has released a few official teasers which reveal longer boat-shaped notch on the front and a square-like camera module on the back.

According to reports, Vivo S7 could have dual-selfie cameras featuring 44-megapixel and 8-megapixel sensors. The rear camera configuration could be 64-megapixel, 8-megapixel and 13-megapixel sensors.
