Vivo has officially listed the Y01 smartphone on the company’s international website, as well as on some regional/country sites, like Kenya. The phone comes in a 6.51-inches screen, powered by MediaTek Helio P35 CPU and available in either 2/3GB RAM, with a single 32-Gigs of built-in storage.

Probably this is going to be Vivo’s most affordable smartphone for the year, replacing the Y1s in most regions. So to keep cost low, the company knocked out a secondary camera from the phone’s rear, retaining only a single 8-megapixel lens, while a 5-megapixel selfie snapper is kept within the notch on the front.

The design is very reminiscent to most recent affordable smartphones we’ve seen from Vivo; the recent Y10, just for an example. It is powered by a 5000mAh battery, and boot Google Android 11 (Go Edition), based on Funtouch 11.1 out of the box.

Most cheap Vivo phones are not offered with a physical fingerprint scanner, and the Y01 is not an except; all you are getting is AI faceID and default Android locks of course. The phone measures 164.41 x 76.32 x 8.41 mm, and weighs around 178 grams.

  1. This is such a nice smartphone by Vivo. I like the features such as 8-mp camera, 5000 mAh battery backup, Mediatek Helio P35 chipset, etc.

  2. I think an 8-megapixel lens back camera with a 5-megapixel selfie snapper will be good, plus the Mediatek chipset will surely enhance its performance.
