Vivo V60 Specific Game Performance
BGMI Gaming Performance
During a one-hour BGMI session on the Vivo V60, I experienced smooth performance with the ‘Smooth + Extreme’ settings, offering 60fps best gameplay. But the 90fps BGMI gaming support through via a software update.
It gives a smooth experience and delivers 58 to 61 FPS during TDM matches. And 55 to 60fps delivered in classic games like Erangel, Sanhok, and Livik matches.
The V60 advanced vapour chamber cooling also stay cool. After 1 hour of gaming, max temperature reached 39°C. No throttling issues, which is impressive compared to some competitors.
COD Gaming Performance
In Call of Duty Mobile, I cranked up the settings to very high with the Max setting, and it delivered consistent 60FPS in multiplayer modes. The gyroscope works smoothly, and the haptic feedback adds to the immersive viewing experience.
However, in longer sessions over an hour, I noticed slight heating near the camera module, but nothing that affected performance
Genshin Impact Gaming Performance
On Medium settings, V60 support 60 FPS gameplay. The first 30 minutes average frame rate is around 58 fps, then settles around 45–52 fps in dense Mondstadt/Liyue areas, and touch response feels crisp.
User Experience & Considerations
Overall Gameplay Review
The Vivo V60 overall gameplay is Smooth and responsive across popular games like BGMI, Free Fire, and COD Mobile, with consistent frame rates and minimal lag. The 120Hz AMOLED display enhances clarity and fast action. Best suited for medium settings games.
Thermal Performance
This phone’s vapour chamber cooling keeps the device comfortable during extended play. After 45–60 minutes of gameplay, temperatures reach around 41°C, with only slight warmth near the camera module. Thermal throttling is minimal, ensuring a high frame rate delivered even in longer sessions.
Funtouch OS 15
Funtouch OS 15 offers a clean, fluid interface with Game Mode optimisations. Navigation is quick, animations feel snappy, and in-game tools like performance overlays help monitor FPS and network stability. Multitasking while gaming is reasonably smooth,
Audio & Haptic
The single stereo speaker delivers clear and loud audio, enough for casual gaming. Haptics are responsive and add satisfying feedback during shots or hits in action games, enhancing immersion.
Network Connection
The Vivo V60e offers stable 5G connectivity with low latency in online games. Wi-Fi 6 ensures quick and reliable signals even in crowded networks. During my playtests, ping stayed consistent, giving a smooth experience in multiplayer matches without sudden drops.
Who should buy it for gaming
Indian gamers who want smooth gameplay at Medium to High settings, long battery life, and reliable 5G should consider the Vivo V60, especially students and casual-to-mid core players of BGMI, CODM, and Asphalt who value stability over maxed-out graphics and prefer cool, consistent sessions.
Verdict/Overall Value
The Vivo V60 isn’t a dedicated gaming monster, but it delivers smooth, reliable gameplay, good thermals, and strong connectivity, making it a safe option for everyday and competitive casual play; performance-focused gamers buy the Vivo T series and ultra series phones for powerful chipsets and high graphics gameplay.
