Vivo Y53s 4G With MediaTek Helio G80 SoC, Triple Rear Camera Launched

Vivo Y53s has launched in Vietnam as the 4G variant of the Vivo Y53s 5G that debuted in China last month. The phone is a budget-friendly offering and is slightly different from the Vivo Y53s 5G. It packs a triple rear camera — one more sensor than the 5G variant — and gets a standard 60Hz display refresh rate, which is a downgrade from the 5G model's 90Hz display refresh rate. The Vivo Y53s is powered by a MediaTek SoC rather than the Snapdragon 480 found in the 5G model.

Vivo Y53s is priced at VND 6,990,000 (roughly Rs. 22,700) for the sole 8GB RAM + 128GB storage model. The phone is offered in Black Green and Blue Purple colours. There is no information on when the phone will go on sale in Vietnam or if it will come to other international markets including India.
