The first impression of the vivo V60 Lite 5G mobile phone
When I took it out of the box at no point did I feel like it had been cut in quality compared to models that cost more. The back is covered by a synthetic resin layer, a type of plastic which, among its advantages, absorbs shocks better. Fortunately, I didn’t have to test his endurance in this regard.
It’s a large phone but it doesn’t seem bulky and it’s his 6.77 inch screen It uses almost the entire front. The other detail that caught my attention is its compact thickness and its weight of 194 grams, quite balanced for the battery it incorporates.

vivo V60 Lite 5G ‘Smartphone’: this is how it is every day
I liked the way it maintains balance: The performance is not inferior, the screen – with very narrow bezels – provides a visual experience that does not disappoint at all and the sound, although more discreet, accompanies. I had no fluidity problems when switching between tabs or opening applications and, unlike other terminals, it keeps the temperature under control so that it doesn’t heat up easily.
The 6.77-inch AMOLED screen It offers good color reproduction, intense, but without oversaturation, ideal for watching series or films; while, their 120Hz refresh rate They make everything flow smoothly and naturally when you move between windows and menus. Outdoors the brightness is sufficient, although I admit that if the sun had been very strong I would have preferred a little more intensity.
It comes with vivo’s latest level of customization, Funtouch OS 15 on top of Android 15. Its design is simple and functional, And it’s good that it arrives without an excess of pre-installed applications, which happens on other phones: CapCut, Candy Crush, Netflix, Temu or Booking are some of the apps that come by default. Furthermore, Artificial intelligence is integrated in a practical way: From the power button you can directly access Gemini, Google’s assistant; To log in for the first time you need to register with a Gmail account.
I squeezed other functions of artificial intelligence which I find useful for everyday life. This is the case of Google Circle to Search: just hold down the home button and draw a circle over any image or text for the system to search for related information in real time. I used it, for example, when I saw a jacket on Instagram that I liked: in a few seconds it showed me the shops where to buy it and similar items.
I also tried the Notes app with artificial intelligence, perfect for jotting down quick ideas, summarizing texts, or translating from one language to another in seconds. The third feature I took advantage of the most is transcription with AI integrated into the recorder. I recorded an interview, and when I finished, the phone automatically converted the audio to text and summarized the main points.
