same blueprint - a 6.2-inch 720x1520px display with a teardrop-styled notch for
the 8MP f/2.0 selfie camera.
There are two other cameras on the vivo Y93s - a
13MP f/2.2 snapper paired to a 2MP f/2.4 depth-sensing second camera. The aforementioned Helio P22
chipset is on par with the Snapdragon 439, on paper. Both feature eight
Cortex-A53 cores that can run at up to 2.0GHz and both are built on a 12nm
process. Also both the Y93 and the Y93s offer 4GB of RAM.
The battery on the vivo Y93s is an ample 4,030mAh. You can buy the vivo Y93s
starting right now for CNY 1,698 (€ 215) - up from the CNY 1,500 (€ 190) of the
