Just like the Vivo Y19, the reported Vivo Y20 could also be launched as an affordable smartphone in India.

According to a report by dealntech, a smartphone carrying a model number V2027 has been spotted on Indonesia's certification database.

It managed to score 252 points in single-core and 1,239 points in multi-core tests.

The Geekbench listing revealed that the V2027 model phone that is thought to be the Vivo Y20 runs on Android 10 and is powered by a 1.8GHz octa-core Qualcomm SoC coupled with 4GB of RAM. The codename of the motherboard is ‘Bengal'. The publication claims that it accessed the source codes of V2027's benchmark listing, and found out that the SoC under the hood of the phone with model number V2027 is Qualcomm Snapdragon 460.

Qualcomm launched the Snapdragon 460 SoC in January this year, and announced that the handsets based on this mobile platform are slated to arrive by the end of this year.

The Vivo Y19 was launched in the sole 4GB RAM + 128GB storage variant at a price of Rs. 13,990 in India.
