Vivo U3 has been teased to debut with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC. The Chinese company has released a teaser image through its official Weibo account. The image also showcases the back of the Vivo U3 that could arrive as the newest budget phone -- after the Vivo U10 that was launched in India and introduced in China as the Vivo U3x last month. Separately, a Vivo phone carrying model number V1914A/T has surfaced on TENAA along with its key specifications. The handset seems to be similar to the Vivo U3. However, it could be a country-specific variant of the U3 -- considering the company's historical records of launching similar hardware in multiple markets with distinct titles.

The teaser image of the Vivo U3, which has been posted on Weibo, highlights the presence of Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC. It also gives a glimpse at the back of the smartphone that appears to have a triple rear camera setup and a traditional fingerprint sensor. There is also a vertically-placed Vivo branding as well as a gradient finish.

Further, the teaser image fairly shows the bottom area of the phone that seems to have the loudspeaker grille, Micro-USB port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Last month, Vivo launched the U10 as its newest budget phone with a triple rear camera setup and 5,000mAh battery. The handset also reached the China market as the U3x and included the Snapdragon 665 SoC, which is a water-down version of the Snapdragon 675 SoC.

Vivo U3 specifications (expected)

If we believe what has been speculated by GizmoChina, the Vivo U3 could be the Vivo 1934A/T phone that surfaced on TENAA recently.

The TENAA listing included the images of the Vivo 1934A/T alongside its key specifications. These include a 6.3-inch full-HD+ (1080x2340 pixels) display with a waterdrop-style display notch and a 2.0GHz octa-core SoC, paired with 4GB and 6GB of RAM.
