vivo Philippines has launched an upgraded version of the Y27. The new vivo Y27s comes with a smoother display, a more powerful processor, better audio, and higher RAM capacity.
The vivo Y27s is now powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor. It still lacks 5G connectivity, but still an improvement over the Helio G85 of the Y27.
vivo has also increased the 6GB of RAM to 8GB for improved multitasking capabilities.
It now also has a high 90Hz refresh rate for the 6.64-inch FHD+ IPS display. Plus, Hi-Res audio support with 200% volume booster.
What hasn’t changed is the large 5,000mAh with vivo’s 44W FlashCharge technology, which the company claims can charge to 30% in just 15 minutes.
It also has an IP54 dust and water resistance and an anti-scratch surface. It can be had in two colors: Garden Green for a fun vibe and Burgundy Black with a more serious but still shimmering accent thanks to the Glitter AG matte surface.
The vivo Y27s has a price of Php9,999 in the Philippines and is now available in physical stores nationwide, and via vivo’s official website, Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok.
