vivo Philippines is gearing up the local launch of its latest entry-level offering, the vivo Y28.
While the official release is slated for June 29th, the phone’s price has already been subtly revealed on the company’s website – and it starts well under PHP 8,000.
For the price, it gets a MediaTek Helio G85 chipset, a decent 6.68-inch HD+ LCD display, and a whopping 6000mAh battery with 44W fast charging.
A unique feature is the phone’s Dynamic Light interface on its back panel, which doubles as an LED notification indicator.

According to vivo’s official Lazada store 19, the Y28 comes in two configurations and will be available online starting June 15th.
The base model 8GB+128GB will set you back PHP 7,999, while the 256GB option jumps to PHP 9,999. It’s worth noting that these are the phone’s SRP, so expect them to potentially drop at launch.
