Vivo Y39 5G Arrives in India: Affordable 5G with a Focus on Battery
Vivo has launched a new option for Indian consumers seeking 5G smartphones without high costs. The Vivo Y39 5G is the latest budget smartphone aiming to stand out with notable features, especially its large battery.
Powering the Y39 5G
Inside, the Vivo Y39 5G utilizes the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset. This processor is designed for handling daily tasks and delivering a smooth 5G experience. It comes with 8 GB of RAM and storage options of 128 GB or 256 GB for apps and data. A microSD card slot for expandable storage is not mentioned.
Big Battery and Smooth Display
A key highlight is the battery. Vivo has included a substantial 6,500 mAh battery in the Y39 5G. This is an upgrade from the previous Y38 5G model. Most users should experience battery life lasting a full day and potentially longer. It also supports 44W fast charging.
The display is a large 6.68-inch LCD screen with HD+ resolution (1608 x 720 pixels). It features a 120Hz refresh rate. This high refresh rate should provide smoother scrolling and animations compared to standard 60Hz screens.
