Vivo ditches out a budget smartphone with the new budget SoC from Qualcomm, water drop notch and attractive design. The smartphone might not actually be the type for the spec minded user, however, it offers enough for an average smartphone. It mimics the design of some of Vivo’s top-end smartphones although the screen gives it away because of its somewhat low resolution. In all, the smartphone offers a decent amount of features for everyday use.

Design and Display
Taking after the bunch of Vivo midrange smartphone with its gradient design and notched screen alongside the same rear camera style. I don’t have to break it to you that this more or less is a recycled design from a number of its predecessor. Missing a fingerprint scanner, the back of the phone is bare except for the dual camera on it. The thickness of 8.3mm is okay putting into account the fairly big battery inside.
To the fancy looking display which is not really that fancy with just an HD+/resolution even though the size big which is nice. For number’s sake, the resolution here is 1520 x 720 pixels and it is sized 6.2-inch landing you with a pixel density of 271 PPI.
Battery and Camera
The Vivo Y93 does not really attain the battery juggernaut status yet it does come with sufficient capacity for most. Carrying a 4, 030mAh battery, you can do pretty much anything you like and it would still get to the end of the day. You don’t get a fast charge and harbours a microusb port for charging..
Even though the processor supports a higher pixel configuration, the Vivo Y93 has a bit of an average pixel setup. There are the dual 13MP camera and 2MP depth lens on the rear for portrait mode. However, the front notch houses an 8MP camera which also takes part in the face unlock.
