Where the vivo V60 Falls Short

🚫 UFS 2.2 Storage

Most of the phones in this price range these days come with UFS 3.1 or even UFS 4.0, whereas the Vivo V60 comes with UFS 2.2, which feels like a letdown in 2025. Apps open slowly and file transfers won’t be as fast when compared to other phones in the same price range.

🎮 Gaming Limitations

Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 is a good processor, its chip can support up to 90 FPS, but it may limit gaming to just 60 FPS, which can be disappointing for gamers who want smoother gameplay.

💰 Pricing Woes

The rumored price of Vivo V60 is said to be around Rs 37,000, but its price does not match what it offers in terms of processor and storage. For many people, the price could be one of the biggest reasons for not buying it.

“At this price point, 2.2 is trash-tier.” – @AbdullahEP
“Max price should not exceed $200!” – @SpencerfwE

These are comments from real users.

📦 No Expandable Storage & No Headphone Jack

There are no card slots, and no 3.5mm headphone jack. You get a clean and stylish look but lose some of the most useful features

What people are saying

Final Verdict: Think Before You Swipe

Vivo V60 looks great and there is no doubt about it. The cameras are quite good, the build quality is excellent, and the AMOLED screen is beautiful. But its slow performance and limited storage could be a problem

If you want a Vivo phone mainly for content creation or selfies, then this could be a good choice. But if you want an all-rounder phone that has strong performance, is futureproof and has the best value, then you should explore other phones as well.

📱 Recommendation: Wait for price drops, compare it with other similar phones and decide based on your real priorities, not just the hype.
