Vivo just launched two new smartphones in Malaysia, the Vivo V23e and Vivo V23e 5G. If you’re looking for a thin, budget-friendly (and selfie-centric) device, these two smartphones are worth considering.

Out of the two phones, the V23e (128GB + 8GB) is naturally the more affordable option with a RM1,399 price tag. As for the V23e 5G, it retails at RM1,599 with the same storage and RAM capacities.

Given its slightly higher price, the V23e 5G is naturally better-equipped. It features a 5G-capable MediaTek Dimensity 810 processor, a 6.44-inch 2400 x 1080 AMOLED display, a triple camera system (50MP primary + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro), a 44MP selfie camera, and a 4,050mAh battery with support for 44W fast charging.

As for the regular V23e, it has almost the same hardware, though it comes with a MediaTek G96 processor instead with 4G connectivity. It also has a different 64MP primary camera, as well as a 50MP selfie shooter.

The Vivo V23e and Vivo V23e 5G are now available for pre-order in Malaysia until 17 December 2021. Those who purchase either phones in this time period will get RM559 (V23e 5G) or RM459 (V23e) worth of free gifts.
