- After more than three years, Vivo is reviving the SE moniker for the upcoming V series smartphones.
- These two new devices would be the Vivo V40 SE 5G and Vivo V30 SE.
- Vivo Y200e, on the other hand, could be a more affordable version of last year’s Vivo Y200.
Three upcoming Vivo phones have been spotted by 91mobiles on the Google Play supported devices list, while one of them – the Vivo V40 SE – has also been spotted on the Global Certification Forum. The devices are Vivo V40 SE 5G, Vivo V30 SE and Vivo Y200e 5G and could be the Chinese brand’s first batch of mid-range phones to launch this year. The models are expected to make their way to global markets, considering they’ll support Google Play.
Vivo V40 SE 5G, V30 SE, Y200e 5G certified
Vivo is preparing at least two new 5G devices for the global market. These would be the Vivo V40 SE 5G (V2337) and the Vivo Y200e 5G (V2336). The surprising move is the revival of its SE series after more than three years. The brand has recently opted for monikers like Vivo V29 “Lite” or Vivo “V29e” for its lower mid-range V series phones. Another significant change could be jumping directly onto the V40 series from the V30 series, which the brand has not done before.
After Bluetooth SIG certification, this is the second marketing name confirmation for the phones. Considering the lack of a “5G” tag in the Vivo V30 SE’s name, it could be a lower-end 4G device. The Vivo V40 SE, on the other hand, could take the place of some other device in Vivo’s popular V series lineup.
The Vivo Y200e 5G could be a more affordable version of the Vivo Y200 5G, which made its debut in India last year. This device, too, was spotted on Bluetooth SIG certification the previous week.
To recall, Vivo launched its flagship Vivo X100 series in India at the beginning of 2024. The Vivo V30 series is expected to land soon in multiple global markets, while Malaysia has already gotten its first device from this series in the form of the Vivo V30 Lite 5G.
