Lava Virat V1 5G Gets New 128GB Variant With 6000mAh Battery And 120Hz Display

Lava has added a new storage option to its Virat V1 5G smartphone in India. The phone was initially introduced in July with a single 4GB RAM and 64GB storage configuration. The company has now brought a 4GB RAM and 128GB storage version for customers looking for more built in space.

The new model has been priced at Rs 14,499 and is being offered as an online exclusive. Customers can purchase the smartphone through Lava’s official website, while the new variant is also expected to be available through Flipkart.

The additional storage is one of the main changes in the latest version. The phone continues to use UFS 2.2 storage and also supports expansion through a memory card of up to 1TB. This gives users more flexibility when storing photos, videos, applications and other files.

On the front, the Lava Virat V1 5G features a 6.75 inch LCD display with HD Plus resolution. The 120Hz refresh rate is designed to make scrolling and everyday navigation feel smoother. The display uses a waterdrop notch at the top, which houses the front camera.

Performance is handled by the Unisoc T8200 chipset. The phone supports up to 8GB of virtual RAM, which works alongside the available physical memory to provide additional capacity for everyday multitasking. The device runs on Android 16, giving the smartphone a relatively recent software platform.

Camera hardware remains focused on basic everyday photography. At the rear, the phone comes with a 13 megapixel main camera, while a 5 megapixel camera is placed on the front for selfies and video calls. Lava has positioned the device as an affordable 5G smartphone rather than a camera focused model.

Battery capacity is another major feature. The Virat V1 5G comes with a 6000mAh battery, which is aimed at users who want longer usage between charges. The phone supports 18W fast charging through its USB Type C port. However, the company provides a 10W charger with the device, according to the listed specifications.

Connectivity options cover the essentials expected from a budget 5G smartphone. The device supports 5G and 4G VoLTE networks along with WiFi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0 and GPS. A 3.5mm headphone jack is also included, which will be useful for users who prefer wired earphones.

For security, the smartphone has a fingerprint scanner mounted on the side. Audio output comes from a bottom mounted speaker. The device also carries an IP64 rating, offering protection against dust and water splashes under the specified conditions.

The launch of the 128GB version gives Lava Virat V1 5G buyers another choice without changing the phone’s core hardware. The larger storage capacity could be particularly useful for customers who regularly keep photos, videos and applications on their phones.

With its 120Hz display, 6000mAh battery, 5G connectivity, expandable storage and Android 16 software, the Virat V1 5G continues to target buyers looking for practical features at a relatively affordable price. The new 4GB and 128GB configuration further strengthens that positioning by offering twice the built in storage of the original model.
