Vivo Y-Series: Vivo seems to be getting ready to unveil a new smartphone from its widely popular Y-series in India. Though the name of the upcoming device hasn’t been confirmed officially, early rumors indicate it would boast a curved AMOLED display, a first in its budget segment. This would be a dramatic design change for the budget Y-series and might attract buyers looking for premium looks without a hefty price.
Slimmest Design and Curved Screen Under ₹15,000
As per a report by 91mobiles, the latest Vivo Y-series smartphone might turn out to be the thinnest phone in the sub-₹15,000 segment with a 3D curved AMOLED screen. Thickness is said to be a mere 7.49mm, which puts it among the thinnest devices in the segment. This thinness, coupled with the curved screen, will certainly offer it a premium feel over the usual flat-screen budget smartphones.
Three Stunning Colour Options Expected
The new phone will come in three attention-grabbing colors Festive Gold, Freestyle White, and Nebula Purple. The Freestyle White will also have a distinctive rear panel design that includes a personal touch. Vivo’s attention to looks in an affordable phone may turn out to be its selling point for young consumers and new smartphone users.
No Official Launch Date or Full Specs Yet
While the details of the design are encouraging, the moniker, launch date, and fundamental specs of the new Vivo Y-series smartphone are still a secret. Vivo has already unveiled some other curved-display phones such as the Vivo Y78 5G, Y200 Pro, and Y300 Plus, and this new device may take that lineup into more budget-friendly waters. Enthusiasts will have to wait for firmer indications from the company.
Vivo Y19 5G: Latest Offering in the Series
In contrast, the Vivo Y19 5G, which went on sale in May, is now the newest offering in the Y-series in India. It is driven by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor and is available at ₹10,499 for the 4GB RAM + 64GB storage variant. With a 6.74-inch HD+ screen that is capable of a 90Hz refresh rate, it offers good performance coupled with affordability.
Battery, Cameras, and Build of Y19 5G
Vivo Y19 5G also boasts a dual rear camera system with a 13MP primary sensor and a 0.08MP secondary sensor. On the front, users are offered a 5MP selfie camera. It also comes with a huge 5,500mAh battery backed by 15W charging. With an IP54-rated build, it’s built to withstand minor dust and water exposure, another advantage for budget-conscious buyers.
Looking Ahead: Budget Phones Get Premium Design
With the curved-display Vivo Y-series phone coming up, the company is looking to introduce premium design features to the affordable segment. If rumors prove true, this phone can change the game in the sub-₹15,000 segment by mixing looks, slim build, and ease-of-use features without breaking a sweat.
