Vivo has officially expanded its mid-range lineup with the launch of the Vivo Y19s GT 5G in Indonesia. Despite bearing the “GT” tag — typically reserved for high-performance devices — the Y19s GT aims to balance affordability with a robust build and reliable performance. This new 5G phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300, a chipset commonly found in budget-friendly 5G smartphones, and comes equipped with several practical features that make it a competitive option in its segment.
The Vivo Y19s GT 5G sports a 6.74-inch HD+ LCD display with a resolution of 1600 x 720 pixels. The screen supports a 90Hz refresh rate, offering smoother visuals and interactions. With a peak brightness of 570 nits, it remains visible even under moderate sunlight.
On the software front, the phone runs Funtouch OS 15, which is based on the latest Android 15, ensuring up-to-date features and security enhancements.
One of the standout features of the Y19s GT 5G is its rugged construction. It carries an IP64 rating, making it resistant to dust and splashes. It also meets the MIL-STD-810H durability standard — a military-grade certification — confirming it can withstand conditions like shocks, vibration, high humidity, and temperature fluctuations.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the Dimensity 6300 SoC, coupled with 6GB or 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM. It also supports extended RAM, adding an extra 6GB or 8GB virtually, depending on the variant. For storage, it offers 128GB or 256GB of eMMC 5.1 storage, expandable up to 2TB via a microSD card — ideal for users who need more space for media or apps.
For photography, the smartphone features a 50MP dual rear camera setup, although Vivo hasn't disclosed the secondary sensor details. On the front, there's a 5MP selfie camera housed in a punch-hole design.
The device is backed by a solid 5,500mAh battery, supporting 15W wired charging via a USB-C port — sufficient for a full day of moderate usage.
The Y19s GT 5G comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for quick and secure unlocking. Connectivity options include dual SIM, 5G, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, and USB Type-C.
The Vivo Y19s GT 5G is now available for purchase in Indonesia with the following pricing:
The device will be available in two vibrant color options: Jade Green and Crystal Purple.
While the Vivo Y19s GT 5G doesn’t offer flagship-grade performance, it brings a balanced mix of features tailored for budget-conscious users who value durability and modern connectivity. With its military-grade build, expandable storage, and 5G support, the Y19s GT stands out as a solid all-rounder in the entry-level 5G smartphone market.
