Innovative and Trendy Design
The vivo Y300 gets a sleek design with a high-gloss metal-like frame that exudes elegance. Available in three striking colors: Titanium Silver, Emerald Green, and Phantom Purple, the device offers a choice for every style. The Titanium Silver variant draws inspiration from the refined look of titanium, and when illuminated by a flashlight, it sparkles a dazzling diamond-like starry texture. Meanwhile, the Emerald Green and Phantom Purple add a dynamic and vibrant personality to the design.
The smartphone boasts an impressive 16.94 cm (6.67-inch) AMOLED punch-hole Display that offers a stunning visual experience. With a 120 Hz refresh rate, the screen ensures a smooth and responsive user experience. Additionally, the display, certified by SGS Low Blue Light Eye Care, protects users’ eyes. Boasting a 0.779 cm ultra-slim body and weighing a mere 188g, vivo Y300 not only provides a comfortable grip but also ensures a remarkable in-hand experience.
Crystal Clear Portraits
vivo Y300 houses a dual camera set-up featuring a 50MP Sony IMX882 main camera and a 2MP Bokeh camera. It comes with features including a 2x portrait mode, which minimizes distortion and enhances facial features, along with AI Aura Light, which ensures soft, natural lighting for portrait shots. The AI Aura Light adjusts the color temperature in low-light environments to illuminate faces softly, providing a 360° even lighting effect with an area eight times wider than a regular flash. This results in soft, studio-like lighting that reduces shadows and enhances skin tones, delivering clear, radiant portraits.
For nighttime photography, AI Supermoon, Super Night Algorithm and Stylish night filters work together to capture rich and delicate colors despite the complex nightscape lighting. Additionally, the Y300 comes with smart AI features such as AI Erase and AI Enhance which help users refine their images by removing unwanted elements and improving photo quality with ease.
For flawless selfies, the Y300 houses a 32MP Front Portrait camera. The smartphone also comes with Dual-View Video which allows simultaneous recording with front and rear cameras. Users can adjust screen ratios for split-screen or use picture-in-picture formats. This feature is ideal for vlogging during meals, travel, or creative projects.
