Vivo Y91i with 6.2-inch HD+ Halo FullView display and Helio P22 SoC launched: price, specifications

Vivo launched the Y91 budget smartphone in India back in January this year, which came in as one of the most affordable phones with a waterdrop notch display.

Named the Vivo Y91i, the new smartphone comes with a single camera on the back and misses out on the fingerprint scanner.
