Video Review
Summary
The vivo V60 Lite is a midrange smartphone family offered in separate 4G and 5G versions. Both provide a large 6,500mAh battery, fast 90W charging, a smooth 120Hz AMOLED display, dual stereo speakers and a versatile 50MP plus 8MP rear-camera system. The more affordable 4G model uses the Snapdragon 685 with 8GB RAM, while the faster 5G model uses the Dimensity 7360-Turbo, UFS 3.1 storage and 12GB RAM. Its main compromises are the absence of camera stabilization, wireless charging, expandable storage and a headphone jack.
