After a brief pre-order period after its launch, both the vivo V23e and V23 5G are now widely available in the Philippines. Both devices are set in the midrange market with the V23 5G having a Dimensity 920 chip, a 90Hz 6.44-inch AMOLED screen, and a new color-changing Fluorite AG glass finish. The V23e, on the other hand, is set a bit more affordably with a Dimensity 810 chipset, a 6.44-inch 2400 x 1080 AMOLED screen, and a 50MP f/1.8 main screen.
