Vivo V60 Lite Reintroduced with New Processor
vivo has quietly reintroduced the V60 Lite, adding a notable upgrade under the hood. While the phone originally launched in September last year, the new variant, identified by the model number V2549 and recently listed in Panama, is the first to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 chipset. This replaces the Snapdragon 685 found in the earlier version, marking a significant step up in processing power for the device.
Key Specifications and Features
The rest of the V60 Lite’s specifications remain consistent with the original model. It sports a large 6.77-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, providing a vibrant and fluid viewing experience. On the front, there is a 32MP selfie camera, while the rear camera setup includes a 50MP main sensor paired with an 8MP ultrawide lens, catering well to photography enthusiasts.
Powering the device is a substantial 6,500mAh battery, which supports fast wired charging at 90W as well as 6W reverse wired charging. This combination ensures lengthy usage and convenient power sharing capabilities. The phone also features an optical under-display fingerprint scanner for secure and seamless unlocking.
Software and Additional Details
The V60 Lite runs on vivo’s Funtouch OS 15, based on the latest Android 15, offering an up-to-date software experience. Additionally, the device carries an IP65 rating for ingress protection, providing resistance against dust and water splashes. It is currently available in black and blue colour options, though pricing information has not been disclosed yet.
Background and What to Expect
This refreshed V60 Lite model builds on vivo’s strategy to offer mid-range smartphones with solid specifications and competitive pricing. The upgrade to the Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 2 chip aligns with Qualcomm’s recent efforts to improve efficiency and performance in the 4G segment. As the device has appeared in the Panama market, it may soon see wider availability in other regions.
For those interested in a capable mid-tier phone with a large display and strong battery life, the new vivo V60 Lite is certainly worth keeping an eye on. Further announcements regarding pricing and availability are expected in the near future.
