Global technology brand vivo adds another surprise this September as they spotlight a new smartphone: the vivo Y16.

This latest addition to vivo's Y series features a big storage which allows users to continuously create and save memories without the fear of running out of space.

With the new vivo Y16, the brand aims to give Filipinos access to premium smartphones that offer smooth performance and multitasking support at a reasonable price point. 

Maximize the storage space while enjoying uninterrupted performance

The vivo Y16 is powered with a storage capacity of 128GB ROM and up to 1TB of memory expansion, allowing work-life balance by having all the necessary files for office and leisure needs all in one device.

This latest smartphone model is also equipped with an extended RAM, which offers 4GB+1GB support. This allows users to switch smoothly between active apps without lags and crashes. 

Gamers can also enjoy immersive and uninterrupted game time with vivo Y16's MediaTek P35 octa-core processor, Multi-Turbo 5.5, and Ultra Game Mode. This feature enables gamers to optimize the phone's gaming performance by reducing stuttering and lags, blocking distracting notifications during the gameplay and smooth run to ace the game and win the battle. 

In addition to its storage and performance, vivo Y16 has a 5000mAh battery capacity. Its users can leave their battery anxiety behind and enjoy up to 18 hours of HD YouTube streaming, 7 hours of heavy gaming, and an all-day-long music playback. It also has a 5V/1A reverse charging feature which makes it possible for the device to act as a power bank. 

Capture memories with ease through smart lenses

Fashionistas and trendsetters can now capture their style and aesthetic with vivo Y16's main camera for a clear shot, and macro camera to capture intricate details. 

The vivo Y16 front camera is powered with the Aura Screen Light, a selfie softlight feature that allows users to shine and capture the best memories even in low-light conditions. 

On top of its camera features, the smartphone further shows off with a 6.51-inch HD Halo FullViewTM display. For videos and streaming, the model has a 1600×720 HD+ resolution, and smart brightness adjustment which filters harmful blue light and minimizes eye strain. 

Memories are never out of style

The vivo Y16 comes in two colorways: Drizzling Gold is warm and youthful, while Stellar Black is inspired by the pattern of shooting stars.

Despite being an entry-level in terms of performance, vivo Y16 is only 8.19 mm thick, and ergonomic with its 2.5D curvature for a comfortable grip. Such size can also easily fit in one's pocket and comes in handy especially for people on the go. 

The introduction of vivo Y16 immediately comes after the brand's consecutive launch of its smartphone lines from the T series, X80 series, and Y series – a bold move in the industry in a bid to give Filipinos access to a wide range of smartphones.
