Vivo has quietly launched a new smartphone – Vivo Z3i – in China.

In terms of design, the key features of the smartphone include a waterdrop display notch, bezel-less display, and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.
Vivo has launched Vivo Z3i smartphone only in China and is priced at CNY 2,398 (roughly Rs. 25,600). The handset comes in Aurora Blue and Millennium Powder color variants.
The dual-SIM Vivo Z3i runs Funtouch OS based on Android 8.1 Oreo and comes with Jovi voice assistant. It sports a 6.3-inch full-HD+ (1080×2280) Super AMOLED display with 19:9 aspect ratio and 90.3 percent screen-to-body ratio. The smartphone is powered by the octa-core Mediatek Helio P60 processor paired with 6GB of RAM. All of these features are similar to the Vivo V11 that was launched in India.
In terms of optics, the Vivo Z3i bears a dual camera setup with a 16-megapixel sensor and a 2-megapixel sensor. To recall, the Vivo V11 in India came with a dual rear camera setup with a 16-megapixel sensor and a 5-megapixel sensor. The Vivo Z3i is equipped with 128GB of inbuilt storage, expandable via microSD card slot (up to 256GB).
Connectivity options in the Vivo Z3i include 4G VoLTE, GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0. Sensors on board the handset are an ambient light sensor, gyroscope, and proximity sensor.
