Vivo is working on a new smartphone under their Vivo Y-series, which is rumored to be launched as the Vivo Y18. Now the various core specifications of the phone have been revealed from the Google Play Console listing. The Vivo Y18 is believed to be the rebranded version of the Vivo Y03 smartphone. Let’s find out what information has surfaced about the upcoming Vivo handset.
Vivo Y18 was spotted on Google Play Console site
Vivo launched the Vivo Y03 earlier this week. Prior to launch, it was seen on certification platforms such as Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) with the V2332 model number. And now, the Vivo Y18 handset has appeared in the database of Google Play Console with the model number V2333. So it is believed that the Vivo Y18 will probably be launched as a rebadged version of the Y03 in different markets.
If the information is true, then it is expected that the specifications of the two Vivo Y series smartphones will be similar. Last February, the Vivo Y18 was spotted alongside the Y03 in Bluetooth SIG certification, which revealed the phone’s support for Bluetooth 5.0. Front and rear panel images of the Vivo Y18 have been spotted in a Google Play Console listing, revealing a design similar to the Y03.
Besides, Vivo Y18 is listed with MediaTek Helio G85 in Play Console. The listing also mentions that this chipset will be paired with 6GB of RAM and is rumored to run on Android 14 operating system. However, Vivo Y03 has been launched with 4 GB RAM. So for now it seems that RAM is the only difference between these two phones. Apart from that, no other information about the Vivo Y18 has surfaced, so we will have to wait for more reports to know more about the phone and confirm if it is indeed a rebadged version of the Vivo Y03.
