vivo Y200+ gets official and it’s a weird one | Infinium-tech
Vivo has recently launched a new smartphone Y200+. It’s part of the incredibly complex Yxxx line, which has seen at least six iterations in the Y100 generation. The Y200 family, with seven members so far, has already made it up by one – with this one it’s up to eight.
So, the Y200+ has been launched as a theoretical update to the Y100+, except that it’s identical to that model in most respects, and where it differs, it’s actually a downgrade specification-wise. We are left scratching our heads about this.
The Y200+ has a smaller 6.68″ 720×1608 resolution LCD screen with the same 120Hz refresh rate, the same 6,000mAh battery with 44W wired charging and rear cameras (50MP main + 2MP), a 5MP selfie camera where Its predecessor had an 8 MP one, and the same IP64 dust and splash resistance, the same 7.99 mm thickness and 199 grams weight.
However, its rear design is different, so maybe that makes it worth launching? Oh, and its speakers are apparently 300% louder. The Y200+ has 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage and runs Origin OS 4. As it probably turns out, this is a China-only model for now. It is available starting at CNY 1,099 ($150 or €145 at current exchange rates).
