Vivo has now brought its Y39 5G entry-level smartphone to India. The affordable smartphone features a Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor, a 120 Hz HD+ display, a 50 MP primary camera, up to 8 GB of RAM, and a large 6,500 mAh battery that supports 44 W fast charging. It comes in ocean blue and lotus purple color options.

Vivo has introduced its latest entry-level smartphone, the Y39 5G, in India. The Vivo Y39 5G, a direct successor to the Y38 5G, retains most of the specifications from its predecessor, albeit with a few tweaks. More specifically, the smartphone now comes with a large 6,500 mAh battery (up from 6,000 mAh of the Y38 5G) and supports the same 44 W wired charging. 

The smartphone also retains the exact display specs as the last-generation model. The Y39 5G sports a 6.68-inch LCD display that outputs at a resolution of 1608 x 720 pixels. The panel also supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and covers 83% of the NTSC color gamut. For photography, Vivo packs a dual rear camera setup at the back consisting of a 50 MP primary camera and a 2 MP secondary camera, just to fill the space. Upfront, you’ll get an 8 MP selfie shooter. 

There’s no upgrade to the processor here. It features the same Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor paired with 8 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of internal storage, with no room for storage expansion. Software-wise, the device runs Android 15-based Funtouch OS 15 out of the box. As usual, there’s no word on the smartphone's software support. 

Dimensionally, the 5G-enabled smartphone measures 165.7 x 76.3 x 8.3 mm (6.52 x 3 x 0.32 inches) and weighs around 207 grams (0.45 lbs). Other highlights include a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, dual stereo speakers, IP64 water and dust resistance, and up to 8 GB RAM expansion support. 

Available in lotus purple and ocean blue colorways, the Vivo Y39 5G starts at INR 16,999 ($200) for the base 8 GB + 128 GB variant and INR 18,999 ($220) for the 8 GB + 256 GB model. The device is now available for purchase via Amazon and Vivo’s official website.
