Vivo Y19s Specs

The vivo Y19s boasts a large 6.68-inch LCD display with a resolution of 1608 × 720 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 90 Hz. Powered by the T612 processor with an octa-core CPU (2 × 1.8 GHz + 6 × 1.8 GHz), making it a new contender in the budget category.

In terms of memory and storage, the Y19s comes with 6GB of LPDDR4X RAM (expandable up to 12GB) and 128GB of eMMC 5.1 internal storage, expandable up to 1TB via microSD. The device runs on Funtouch OS 14, based on Android 14.

Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the 50 MP main camera, accompanied by a 0.08 MP secondary sensor. For selfies, there’s a 5 MP front-facing camera. The rear camera supports various modes including Night, Portrait, and Pro, among others.

A 5500 mAh battery powers the Y19s, with 15W charging support. The device also features a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and offers IP64 dust and water resistance.

The vivo Y19s is listed in three attractive colors: Pearl Silver, Glossy Black, and Glacier Blue, but some of them may not come in certain regions. The phone measures 165.75 × 76.10 × 8.10 mm and weighs 198g, with a back cover made of composite plastic.

The device supports 4G LTE, dual SIM functionality, Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz), Bluetooth 5.2, and GPS. It also includes a USB Type-C port and retains the 3.5mm headphone jack, a feature increasingly rare in modern smartphones.

Pricing and Availability

While the Vivo Y19s has been listed on the company’s website with detailed specifications, pricing information is still pending. We expect vivo to announce pricing and availability soon, potentially positioning the Y19s as a competitive option in the budget smartphone segment.

The Y19s appear to be targeted at multiple markets, with color availability varying by region. For instance, the Black variant will be available in Bangladesh, UAE, Russia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Cambodia, Egypt, Thailand, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan, while the Blue and Silver variants have slightly different regional availability. Notably, the charger is not included in the box for Thailand and the Philippines, while it is provided for other markets.

As consumers await further details, the vivo Y19s promises to be an interesting addition to the budget smartphone market, offering a balanced mix of features at what is expected to be an attractive price point.
