Islamabad, Jan 2: Vivo has introduced its latest smartphone, the Vivo Y200+, expanding its Yxxx series. Despite some design changes and a louder speaker system, the Y200+ seems to compromise in certain areas compared to its predecessor, raising questions about its positioning.
Key Features:
- Design and Display: The Vivo Y200+ debuts with a new rear design, distinguishing itself from the Y100+. It features a 6.68-inch LCD with 720 x 1608 resolution, which is a downgrade in sharpness compared to previous models. However, it retains a 120 Hz refresh rate for smooth scrolling.
- Internals and Software: Powered by a Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset, 8 GB RAM, and 256 GB internal storage, the Y200+ is geared for basic tasks. It runs Origin OS 4.0, with the global version likely featuring Funtouch OS.
- Camera: The rear camera setup includes a 50 MP primary sensor and a 2 MP secondary sensor. However, the selfie camera has been downgraded to 5 MP, a significant cut from the 8 MP on the Y100+.
- Battery: The device is equipped with a 6,000 mAh battery supporting 44W wired charging, ensuring long-lasting battery life and fast charging.
- Pricing: Priced at approximately $150 in China, the Vivo Y200+ is positioned as an affordable option. Its international availability remains unclear.
The Vivo Y200+ introduces a new rear design and louder speakers but maintains most of the same features as the Y100+, including the same camera setup and battery. The downgrade in the selfie camera may be a concern for some users, and the overall performance remains largely unchanged.
