Following the recent launch of the Vivo Y600 Pro, Vivo may soon add a new model to its Y600 series in China. Another leaked information about the release date of the Vivo Y600 Turbo and also about some of its key specifications has been discovered. Although Vivo has not officially unveiled the smartphone, many leaks about its expected launch date have recently surfaced online.

According to a Weibo post made by Whylab (translated from Chinese), the Vivo Y600 Turbo smartphone will be launched in the Chinese market on May 25. In the promotional image shared in the leak (seems like it was taken from a landing page), it can be seen that the device will become available for booking from May 21, and pre-orders will start from May 25 at 10:00 AM local time (7:30 AM IST).

The latest leak suggests that the Vivo Y600 Turbo may feature a 9,020mAh 'Blue Ocean' battery. It is expected that the handset will also support 90W wired fast charging. The teaser shows the handset in pink and white color options. It is also rumored that the smartphone will feature a 6.83-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and support for a 165Hz refresh rate. If these speculations are correct, it could become Vivo's first smartphone to offer a 165Hz refresh rate.

The Vivo Y600 Turbo is expected to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 chipset, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 3.1 onboard storage. It is reported to run on Android 16 with OriginOS 6 on top.

Regarding the camera, the handset is expected to feature a dual rear camera setup, consisting of a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-600 primary sensor and a 2-megapixel secondary camera. It may also feature a 16-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies and video calls.

The Vivo Y600 Turbo is reportedly a rebranded version of the iQOO Z11. The iQOO Z11 was launched in China in March and is priced starting at CNY 2,299 (approximately Rs. 31,200) for the 8GB + 256GB variant. If the Vivo Y600 Turbo is indeed based on the same hardware platform, then it could also launch in the same price range.
