Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 460 SoC earlier this year in January, alongside two other mid-range chips — the Snapdragon 720G and Snapdragon 662. Android OEMs have already launched Snapdragon 720G and Snapdragon 662 powered devices, but the budget-friendly Snapdragon 460 chip hasn't made its way to many devices so far. The chipset made its debut appearance with the new OPPO A53 in India yesterday and now sister company Vivo has launched the affordable Vivo Y20 series, featuring the Snapdragon 460.

The new Vivo Y20 series consists of two budget-friendly devices — the Vivo V20 and Vivo Y20i. Both the devices are powered by the Snapdragon 460 chip and they feature a 6.51-inch HD+ LCD display with a 1600x720p resolution and a waterdrop-style notch. The devices feature the same design, with a triple camera setup on the back and a side-mounted capacitive fingerprint scanner.
In the camera department, both devices feature a 13MP f/2.2 primary camera, a 2MP f2.4 depth sensor, and a 2MP f/2.4 macro camera. Over on the front, the devices include an 8MP f/1.8 selfie shooter. While the devices are pretty much the same for the most part, they do have different RAM configurations and they support different battery charging speeds.
The Vivo Y20 features 4GB of RAM coupled with 64GB of onboard storage, while the Vivo Y20i features 3GB of RAM with 64GB of storage. The devices pack in a substantial 5,000mAh battery with 18W FlashCharge support only on the Vivo Y20. Both the devices run Vivo's custom Funtouch OS 10.5 Andriod skin based on Android 10.
