Vivo Y66 FAQ, Pros and Cons – Everything you wanted to know!

Vivo has launched the new Vivo Y66 with what they call the 16MP Moonlight Selfie camera. The Vivo Y66 comes with a 5.5-inch 720p IPS LCD display, a 13MP rear camera, and a 16MP selfie camera with LED flash light. It comes with 32GB internal storage and 3GB of RAM. It is powered by the Mediatek MT6750 chipset bundled with Mali-T860 GPU. It runs on the Vivo’s custom made Funtouch OS 3.0 with Android 6.0. It has a battery of 3000 mAh.
