Vivo Y200e 5G India Launch Date Confirmed; Sneak Peek into Design and Colour Options Revealed

Vivo Y200e 5G: Possible Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC Powering Up

Vivo Y200e 5G is set to make its debut in the Indian market, with Vivo recently confirming the imminent launch. Teasers from the company have provided a glimpse of the handset’s design and hinted at the available color options. Anticipated to hit the shelves later this month, the phone has been the subject of previous leaks, revealing some of its expected features and specifications. Reports also hinted at the probable pricing of the device. Once released, the Vivo Y200e 5G will join the existing Vivo Y200 5G in the company’s lineup, which was introduced in India back in October 2023.

Vivo India took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce that the Vivo Y200e 5G is scheduled for launch in India on February 22. Alongside this announcement, a product page dedicated to the upcoming smartphone has gone live on Vivo’s official website. The teasers showcase the handset in captivating blue and vibrant orange color variants, speculated to be marketed as Diamond Black and Saffron Delight, respectively, as hinted by previous leaks.

The orange option of the Vivo Y200e 5G is seen with a vegan leather finish and stitch-like criss-cross patterns on the back panel. Even the blue variant appears with a textured finish but it could have a plastic back instead of faux leather.

The triple rear camera system of the Vivo Y200e 5G is placed vertically in separate circular units within a rectangular camera module. A smaller round LED flash unit is placed beside the camera units. The design of the back panel is similar to the Vivo Y200 5G, except for a third camera in place of the Aura Light feature seen in the latter model.

 

 

A tipster previously claimed that the Vivo Y200e 5G will be priced in India under Rs. 20,000. It had also been tipped to come with RAM options of 6GB and 8GB alongside 128GB of onboard storage. The RAM may also be expandable virtually up to 16GB.

Earlier leaks also suggested that the Vivo Y200e 5G is likely to get a 6.67-inch full-HD+ Samsung AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1200nits of peak brightness. It is expected to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC and ship with either Android 13 or Android 14-based UI. Vivo is also expected to pack a 5,000mAh battery into the phone with support for 44W wired fast charging.

For optics, the Vivo Y200e 5G might carry a 50-megapixel primary and a 2-megapixel secondary sensor at the back, while the front camera has been tipped to house a 16-megapixel sensor. The phone may also come with an in-display fingerprint scanner, dual stereo speakers and an IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance. The handset is also likely to weigh around 185.5g and measure around 7.79mm in thickness.
