Vivo Y89 Unveiled With Dual Rear Shooters, 4GB RAM & Snapdragon 626 SoC

Vivo is here with another banging smartphone called the Vivo Y89. The Vivo Y89 joins the long list of Vivo smartphones, specifically the mid-range Y series.

Found on this smartphone are features such as Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 with octa-core 2.2GHz processor, 4GB RAM, a large 6.26-inch screen and more.

Let’s talk about the smartphone fully in the article proper.

Vivo Y89 Quick Review

Oh yes, the notch design hasn’t died; it’s still in full swing. Y89 appears in the same type of notch in the iPhone X that disturbed the smartphone niche in 2018. In the notch region, a single camera that’s capable of Facial recognition is present. Also, sensors like proximity sensor and ambient light sensor are found alongside the earpiece.

The rear arena of the smartphone relays some mirror effect thanks to the lustrous feel Vivo added to it. It was so evident that when the phone was taken with another phone’s camera, the other phone was showing clearly.

Where you can also get mirror effects is in the display region, that’s what we all know. The display zone is highlighted by 6.26-inch IPS screen and 19:9 aspect ratio. Due to the 1080 x 2289 pixels resolution and 402PPI density, the pictures, and Videos displayed on the phone are top notch.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 SoC powers vivo Y89. Packed on this SoC are octa-core 2.2GHz processor and Adreno 506 GPU. While the CPU handles performance and efficiency, the GPU executes graphics rendering.

In the memory unit, 4GB LPDDR4X RAM and 64GB ROM are the real deal. The latter can expand to 256GB with the help of a MicroSD card.

Rear photography duties are taken care of by dual 16MP and 2MP camera sensors. The 2MP sensor guarantees the efficacy of background isolation during portrait imagery. On the flip side, a 16MP camera works the selfie magic.

Software-wise, Android Oreo OS comes out of the box with Vivo Y89. The device’s modest 3,260mAh battery is enough to carry you through most of the day. 2G, 3G and 4G LTE are available to sort out connectivity for voice calls and Internet connection.
