If you’ve been hunting for a mid-range phone that finally stops frustrating you with grainy evening portraits and a battery that quits before your day does, then listen up.

vivo V60 Lite is about to drop in Kenya starting November 5th, and it’s bringing some serious flagship energy, especially in the camera and power departments. 

With the 5G model expected to kick off around Sh42,999, this phone isn't just an upgrade, it's a solution to the everyday mobile struggles we know too well.

This is why vivo calls it the "Travel Portrait Perfect Partner".

Problem 1: Bad lighting blues - grainy, harsh, or dark photos

We’ve all been there: You're at a vibey dinner spot, a late-night show, or just catching the sunset with friends, but your phone camera can't handle it. 

The flash is too harsh, or the photo is too dark and grainy. It’s frustrating!

The V60 Lite Solution: Forget that harsh, blinding light you call a flash. The V60 Lite introduces the third generation of vivo's AI Aura Light Portrait 3.0, which acts like a pocket-sized, professional studio light.

  • Soft glow, not a spotlight

This system is engineered to be twice as bright and covers an area 4.2 times larger, all while delivering light that is 73 times softer than a regular flash. 

The result? Natural, glowing portraits where your skin tones look balanced and beautiful, even under tricky neon lights.

  • The powerhouse lenses

The phone packs a main camera with a 50 MP Sony sensor and a 32 MP HD selfie camera.

Both lenses support cinematic 4K video recording which is perfect for making your travel vlogs or TikToks look pro.

Problem 2: Battery anxiety, constantly searching for a socket

Whether you’re stuck in traffic, hiking Ngong Hills, or just having a busy day running errands, seeing your battery dip into the red zone is stressful. 

Who remembers to carry a power bank everywhere?

The V60 Lite brings relief with a 6500 mAh BlueVolt Battery. This massive capacity means you can use your phone, take photos, stream music, and browse social media without constantly stressing about finding a wall socket.

  • Full Tank in Under an Hour

Even when you eventually run low, the blazing-fast 90W FlashCharge is a lifesaver. 

It blasts the 5G version from 1% to 100% charged in just 52 minutes. Now that’s speed we can appreciate! 

Plus, vivo assures us the battery is built for the long haul, maintaining its efficiency for up to five years.
