The vivo Y19e joins the brand’s entry-level series as it makes its debut in India.
Powering the new vivo Y19e is a UNISOC T7225 octa-core processor, a 12nm chip clocked at 1.8GHz and is paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC 5.1 storage expandable up to 2TB.
It then has a low-resolution 6.74-inch IPS display with an HD+ resolution, but a high 90Hz refresh rate. The fingerprint scanner is on the side, doubling as the lock/power switch.
Due to the underwhelming processor and display, expect long battery life out of this thing, especially since it has a beefy 5,500mAh capacity, paired with 15W charging.
A 5-megapixel selfie camera sits on a waterdrop notch. On the back, we have the 13-megapixel main shooter and an auxiliary sensor. The design is similar to other vivo phones we’ve seen in the past.
vivo made the device durable with its IP64-rated dust and water-resistant build and having passed the MIL-STD-810H certification. Sadly, it still ships with Android 14-based Funtouch OS 14.
The vivo Y19e is available in India at a price of INR7,999 (~Php5,300). No word yet if it’s coming to the Philippines.
