Vivo is gearing up to update its Y-series with the new Vivo Y28s 5G, which is expected to hit the market soon. The device was previously spotted by us in Vivo’s software code with model number “V2346.” The device has now made its appearance on the benchmarking site Geekbench, shedding light on the specifications.

The model, identified as V2346 in the Geekbench 6.3.0 benchmark tests, scored 599 for single-core and 1707 for multi-core. These scores suggest the phone is equipped with an octa-core processor and a Mali G57 GPU, likely featuring MediaTek’s Dimensity 6300 or 6080 chipset.

Additionally, the benchmark listing reveals that the Vivo Y28s will come with 8 GB of RAM and run on the Android 14 operating system. In addition to these details, the smartphone has also picked up the Bureau of Indian Standards certification, hinting at an imminent launch. The device is expected to launch in other markets besides India. Its previous sighting on China’s CQC certification website revealed that it features 15W fast charging.

While other details of the device are currently unknown, we can look at the already-launched Vivo Y28 to get an idea of what to expect from the Y28e.
