Summary
July 27 brought vivo’s T5e to India at ₹13,999 in a single 4GB/64GB variant, sold immediately through Flipkart, vivo’s e-store and retail partners.
The budget 4G phone is built around a 5,500mAh battery that vivo says will retain usable capacity for four years, alongside 15W charging, reverse charging and up to 18 hours of YouTube playback.
MIL-STD-810H certification and IP64 protection are central to the pitch, with drop testing from 1.22 metres, a reinforced frame and support for wet- or greasy-hand touch input.
A Unisoc T7225 chip, 6.74-inch 90Hz HD+ display and OriginOS 6 on Android 16 target students and light users, adding AI writing, translation, cutout and document tools rather than gaming power.
The launch puts vivo into India’s crowded sub-₹15,000 segment by emphasizing durability and battery longevity over camera performance, which is limited to an 8MP rear and 5MP front setup.
