Vivo V19 launches with good spec sheet but an outdated chipset
As scheduled, Vivo V19 is now official in Indonesia. It retains the L-shaped camera module and a pinhole selfie camera of its predecessor, the V17. The price of V19 is IDR 4,299,000(~P15K) for the 8GB/128GB while the 256GB is at IDR 4,999,000(~P17,600). Unfortunately, some specs were retained like Snapdragon 675 which is underwhelming compared to other competitors. Vivo didn’t bother to upgrade the optics as well, as it’s the same 48MP f1.8 + 8MP f2.2 ultrawide + 2MP f2.4 macro + 2MP f2.4 depth combination. The same goes for the 32MP f2.5 selfie camera. Aside from the design, perhaps, the only difference is that the device runs on the latest Funtouch 10. Available in Arctic Blue, Crystal White, Vivo V19 will start selling on March 26th.
