The handset is a mid-range smartphone with a 6.53-inch FHD+ display with a punch-hole at the top, quad cameras at the back, 5,000mAh battery with 18W fast charging support, and a mid-range Snapdragon 665 SoC. This is the second smartphone Vivo announced today as the Vivo V19 global model went official earlier today at a more premium segment.
