A few days ago, we reported that Vivo is developing a new mid-range smartphone, the Vivo Y32, but the company is not limited to this. Instead, we’re seeing continued development from the company. This morning, a new device from the Vivo Y series surfaced on the Chinese certification site.
The device is named Vivo Y55s 5G and was listed on the China Telecom website along with the basic specifications and renders.
The Vivo Y55s features a 6.58-inch U-shaped notch display that supports Full-HD+ resolution (2408x1080p). The body measures 163.87×75.33×9.17 mm and weighs about 199.8g. It seems that the device is a bit heavy.
The Vivo Y55s is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset. This chipset is based on a 7nm manufacturing process and has a maximum frequency of 2.2 GHz (Cortex-A76 core). It also has an integrated Mali-G72 CPU.
The camera specifications of the device are also a bit lower. The phone features a dual camera setup (50MP+2MP) in a rectangle-shaped module with a vertical arrangement. On the front, there is an 8MP lens in the display notch.
The phone also has a 6000mAh Li-ion battery inside and supports 18W charging. The company has also integrated a side fingerprint sensor in the lock screen button. It also features a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
The phone will be available in only one storage variant: 8+128GB, priced at CNY 1899 ($299). The color options are Ceramic Black, Mirror Lake Blue, and Cherry Pink Meteor. The Vivo Y55s will be released on December 4.
