Snapdragon 616 handles the processing here, paired with 3GB RAM and a choice of 16GB or 32GB storage that you can stretch further with a microSD card up to 128GB. The 5.0-inch IPS LCD screen runs at 720 x 1280 resolution, which works fine for everyday browsing and video without pushing into higher-density territory. vivo V3 price in Malaysia starts from RM799, positioning it as a budget-focused option rather than a flagship contender.

On the camera side, there's a 13MP rear shooter with phase detection autofocus plus an 8MP front camera for selfies, backed by HDR and panorama modes. A fingerprint sensor is included too, which wasn't always standard at this price point back when it launched.

Battery capacity sits at 2550mAh, non-removable, and the phone runs Android 5.1 Lollipop under vivo's Funtouch OS skin. At 138g and 7.5mm thick, it's light and slim enough for one-handed use, and it comes in a single Gold colourway.
