5 best features of vivo Y31

1. Beautiful design - It's pretty rare for a midrange smartphone to have a glasstic, frosted build. vivo Y31 is beautifully designed with a gradient, frosted, glasstic body design that actually caught our attention as soon as we got our hands on it. It's also very slim at 8.38mm.

This smartphone looks like a flagship one so if you're looking for a sleek and minimalist-looking smartphone without breaking the bank, vivo Y31 might be the perfect smartphone for you.

2. HUGE battery - vivo Y31 is packed with 5,000mAh of battery paired with 18W fast charging. It can last a whole day of texting, calling, surfing the web, and casual gaming! The best part? It doesn't take long to be fully charged again. 

48MP triple-cam

3. AI triple cameras - Y31 is equipped with a triple camera setup of 48MP f/1.79 + 2MP f/2.4 macro + 2MP f/2.4 depth with dual-tone LED LED flash. And it has an 8MP selfie camera.

In case you missed it, Neil has taken photos using the vivo Y31 in our unboxing video. The photos taken were sharp, bokeh is clean, with nice colors and texture. It has bokeh, super macro, super night, and 48MP modes with stylish night filters. 

Capable specs for running most of the essential apps

4. Essential specs - We're using smartphones obviously because of the essential features we need to be packed in a pocketable device. vivo Y31 boasts a 2.0GHz 11nm Snapdragon 662 octa-core processor paired with Adreno 610 GPU. It's also packed with 8GB RAM and 128GB expandable memory in case you need some extra space.  

If one SIM card doesn't excite you, Y31's dual SIM feature is surely a perfect feature that we don't usually find on flagship smartphones right now. 

We also love how the power button doubles as the fingerprint scanner. It saves us time from unlocking the phone. 

5. Affordability - The pandemic has been rough with everyone most especially our pockets. In case you've been meaning to get a new smartphone with a tight budget on hand, vivo Y31 could be the perfect phone to buy. It's only priced at PHP 12,999.
