Display
Upfront, you are greeted by a beautiful display with a tiny punch hole cutout at the top center. The display itself is a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel that has an FHD+ resolution and reaches up to 120Hz refresh rate.
The screen can go as high as 1,800 nits at its very peak, which is more than a 100% increase compared to its sibling.
Beneath the screen, there is an optical fingerprint sensor for biometric authentication.
Design and Build
Vivo is pretty good when it comes to design and they didn’t change that here. The phone comes with flat edges which seems to be a trending thing now.
The build is good enough as it is IP54-certified for water and dust resistance.
It will have a plastic back or a faux leather back which a lot will appreciate. It will be available in two colors: Black Diamond and Saffron Delight.
Processor and Memory
The Vivo Y200e is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 which is an improved version of the 4 Gen 1 that its predecessor had.
It still comes with 6GB or 8GB of RAM, and either 128GB or 256GB of internal storage, and it can be expanded via the micro SD slot.
Camera
On the rear, there is a dual setup that features a 50MP main camera and a 2MP depth camera. There are 3 camera circles but the last one is just a flicker sensor.
As for selfies, there is a 16MP camera tucked in the tiny punch-hole cutout at the top centre.
Battery and Charging
On the inside, the Vivo Y200e has a 5,000 mAh non-removable lithium-ion battery which is slightly larger than its predecessor.
The charging speed still remains the same, the 44W fast charge is not advertised to take the phone to 32% in just 15 minutes of charging, with a full charge being around an hour.
Others
The Vivo Y200e comes with 5G connectivity, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB-C. It has dual stereo speakers and has support for Hi-Res audio.
As for software, the phone comes running on Android 14 with FuntouchOS 14 skin on top.
Vivo Y200e Price and Availability
The Vivo Y200e is priced at $240 (INR 19,999) for the 6GB/128GB variant, and it goes up to $255 (INR 20,990) for the 8GB 128GB model.
The phone is already available for pre-order in India where it was launched and it will sold on Vivo’s official website as well as other retail stores.
There is no info yet when it make its way to other countries, but I expect that to be soon.
