This week, several smartphones will launch in India. The Vivo V23e 5G will launch today at 12:00PM. The online event will be live-streamed via Vivo's YouTube channel. This is expected to be the same model that is available in Malaysia. Realme is also gearing up to launch its budget Narzo 50 smartphone in the country on February 24. On the same day, Oppo will also bring its latest flagship Find X5 series. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, which is also set to power the upcoming iQOO 9 series. Here’s a quick look at smartphones that will be launching in India this week.
The Vivo V23e is said to arrive with a 6.44-inch AMOLED display, which will operate at full-HD+ resolution. It could be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 810 SoC. The Poco M4 Pro 5G was recently launched in India with the same chip.
It is expected to be offered with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage option. Vivo will likely offer an option to expand the internal storage using a microSD card slot (up to 1TB). It is said to run on Android 11, rather than on Android 12. The Vivo V23e 5G could sport a 4,050mAh battery with support for 44W fast charging. It is unknown whether the brand will bundle the fast charger in the box too.
It will reportedly offer a triple rear camera, including a 50-megapixel wide-angle sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor, and a 2-megapixel super macro sensor. On the front, there could be a 44-megapixel camera for selfies and videos. The Vivo V23e is said to be priced between Rs 25,000 to Rs 30,000.
The iQOO 9 series is coming on February 23, which will be the company’s first 2022 smartphone in India. The 5G device will pack a flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. The same chip is currently powering several flagship phones, like the OnePlus 10 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S22, and more. Smartphones like Xiaomi 12 Ultra and Oppo Find X5 are also expected to launch with this chip in the coming days or weeks.
The company has also confirmed via teasers that the iQOO 9 will come with 120W fast charging support. It will come with a 3D Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, and a 50-megapixel GN5 camera in a triple rear camera setup with OIS support. The rest of the features are yet to be officially revealed by the company.
But, since the device is already available in China, we know the possible specifications. The company launched two models, including iQOO 9 and iQOO 9 Pro. The standard version has a 6.78-inch Full HD+ Samsung E5 OLED 120Hz display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, a 4,700mAh battery with ultra-fast 120W fast charging. The triple rear camera setup includes a 50-megapixel primary camera, a 13-megapixel wide-angle camera with a 120-degree field-of-view, and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens. On the front, there is a 16-megapixel front shooter.
