Vivo India has announced that the V29e is "coming soon" as a new Android smartphone in "eye-catching colors". These finishes have allegedly leaked out, hinting at finishes not hugely unlike those of the X Fold2 that may or may not integrate photochromic technology.
The latest V29e tips also suggest that it is coming for the Redmi 12 5G, being a "design masterpiece" powered by a budget 5G Snapdragon 480-series SoC, up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. It might be joined by a somewhat more premium V29 5G soon, however.
This smartphone augments fairly standard 2023 mid-range specs such as a 120Hz FHD+ 6.78-inch AMOLED display driven by the Snapdragon 778G processor with 50MP rear cameras to both the front and rear, not to mention a reportedly well-received Aura Light LED ring flash.
Both smartphones are slated to have the same 4,600mAh battery with 80W charging. Then again, the V29e is officially set to go live in India at some point, whereas the V29 5G is only rumored to do so due to the discovery of a device called the "Vivo V2250" on the BIS database.
