16MP Selfie Camera with Moonlight Glow
Vivo officially took the wraps off their newest mid-range offering in India called the Vivo Y69. As expected the device is mainly focused on the front-facing cameras for selfie shots. The rear shooter is a 13-megapixel snapper while the secondary front camera is a 16-megapixel with f/2.0 aperture and on-screen flash (aka Moonlight Glow). It will be sold in India starting September 1 with a price tag of $235 (roughly Php11,000-Php12,000).
Here’s a quick rundown of the other specifications:

Just a quick observation: based on what we’ve seen in the last few weeks the mid-range is being flooded with smartphones with either rear dual-camera set-ups or insanely high MP front-facing selfie cameras. It’s like the battle between creamy bokeh shots versus super beautified selfies, lol.
Anyway, let us know what you guys think of the Vivo Y69. We’ve heard from a few sources that it will hit PH shores soon as well so don’t be surprised if this gets announced in a few weeks (or days).
