First Impressions of the Vivo Y400 Pro
Vivo just stepped up its Y-series game — and it shows.
In the latest blog by Rahul Kumar Maliya on Mobile Duniya , we get a hands-on look at the Vivo Y400 Pro, a mid-range smartphone that looks and feels like a flagship. From a glossy, curved AMOLED display to a Sony-powered camera, this phone checks a lot of boxes.
At a starting price of ₹22,499 (effective), is it worth your money? Let’s break it down.
Unboxing & Design: Premium Vibes All the Way
Upon opening the box, it is apparent that Vivo is trying to present a flagship concept at a budget price. The first thing you notice when taking the phone out of its packaging is the premium design:
- Ultra-thin body (7.4mm)
- Lightweight at just 185g
- Glossy glass-like finish
- Metallic camera ring
He told me that this phone is often the “most premium looking Y-series” he has tested. The phone comes in three color options, the Freestyle White is absolutely stunning. The phone is also IP65 rated for some dust and water-resistance.

Display: 3D Curved AMOLED for the Win
This time Vivo is moving away from a flat panel to a 6.77-inch Full HD+ 3D Curved AMOLED display with:
- 120Hz refresh rate
- Peak brightness of 4500 nits
- HDR support
Not only is the display smooth, vivid, and functional outdoors because of ample brightness, but its curved edges help provide a more immersive viewing experience while streaming, gaming, or simply watching.
Audio, Build & Extras
- Dual stereo speakers provide clear, loud sound
- In-display fingerprint scanner + Face unlock
- USB-C, dual SIM slot, and noise-canceling microphone
- Included was a TPU case and box for the 90W charger!
Camera: Sony Sensor, 4K Video, and Surprises
Vivo Y400 Pro has a 50MP Sony IMX882 primary camera, along with:
- 2MP depth sensor
- 32MP front selfie camera
- 4K 30fps video recording with EIS (front & rear)
- Wedding style portrait
- Live photo and Dynamic RGB ring light under the camera
In real life, the main camera does a good job. Even with a portrait mode with 1x to 2x zoom, the skin tones are even and not overly saturated as those colors may sometimes be. The selfie camera takes some sharp photos and details look good too!
The only missing element is the ultra-wide lens that would have complemented the phone nicely.
