Vivo has plunged into the budget phone arena again, introducing Vivo Y100i Power in the Chinese market. Building on the success of the earlier Y100i, this new addition to the pack has some serious kick with hardware upgrades and a graceful new design. Here’s a brief overview of its functions.
The display stretches 6.64 inches across with an IPS panel. The punch-hole imbued screen delivers a FullHD+ resolution, all while boasting a buttery smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Running on Android 13 with Origin OS 3, the Y100i Power is not just about visuals but also a slick user interface.
Under the hood, the Y100i Power bids farewell to Dimensity 6020 and uses the newly announced Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip. And to keep the juice running, the latest budget Vivo mobile houses a massive 6,000mAh battery that supports lightning-fast 44W fast charging.
In the memory department, the Y100i Power doesn't disappoint. It brings a single configuration with a whopping 12GB (LPDDR4x) RAM and 512GB (UFS 2.2) storage. The device has an additional 12GB of virtual memory. Additionally, it sheaths the mainboard with a 639mm2/8736mm Graphite Sheet liquid cooling solution.\
Camera-wise, the Y100i Power shoots with an 8MP front camera, while the back panel houses a 50-megapixel primary sensor and a 2MP depth sensor for good measure. Connectivity features include a dual SIM channel, 5G, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, and a USB-C port.
Now for the burning question: what's the price tag? The Vivo Y100i Power costs 2,099 Yuan (USD 295/PKR 82,500) in the Chinese market, and it comes in three elegant shades: black, white, and blue.
