Vivo Philippines Vice President Hazel Bascon, who spearheaded the special event said,
Young Filipinos nowadays are not afraid of expressing their feelings and sharing it with their friends. We see how frequently they share stories online and offline, and they often use their smartphones to document their daily lives. With the Vivo Y55, we kept that behavior in mind, and made sure that we deliver a device that not only keeps up with their multi-tasking demands, but also provides useful features that help them elevate their selfie experience.
Vivo Y55 special features:
Smart Screen Flash technology – this function automatically switches on in dark conditions so that your face looks brighter and astonishing when taking selfies. Generate ready to test that brilliant selfies even at night.
Smart Split 2.0 – a special feature from its previous Vivo smartphone, now retained and upgraded for the Y55 to back up even more applications running. If you are watching a video then a text message comes in, usually what you will do is pause the video player, go to SMS center then read and reply to the text message. But with Smart Split 2.0, just click the screen once while the video is being played, it will split the screen. You can even respond to the text messages without interrupting your video on the other side.
Triple Card Slots – one of the slot supports 128GB Micro SD card for that gigantic external memory to back up your favorite pictures, videos and music. The other two card slots can support 4G sim and can support your fast internet speed of up to 150Mbps.
Eye Protection Mode – this special feature filters out blue light to protect your vision thus preventing eye strain too. Nowadays, you don’t bear to lay down your Y55 phone for that non-stop browsing, scanning to finish that E-book, and even for a movie marathon without the worries of stressing your eye.
Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU – to power up Y55 special features, Vivo installed the actual-core processor of Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 running at 1.4GHz, 2GB RAM and at 64-bit. The internal storage is expandable up to 16GB. The Y55 is the first-entry level smartphone to be powered by this processor.
To make that photo and video shot at its’ best, the main camera is rated at 8MP, and can take photos and scale it up to 32MP if Ultra HD mode is activated. Front-facing camera snaps photos at 5MP, all with the assistance of Smart Screen Flash technology.
