vivo Launches Y32 in Pakistan, Delivering an All-Day Battery to Power Through a Long Day

LAHORE – vivo today officially introduces the vivo Y32 in Pakistan, a highly anticipated smartphone designed for users with long, demanding days. Designed for young professionals, mobile workers, and anyone who needs a device that can keep going, the Y32 debuts with a clear and powerful promise: to deliver all-day power without compromise. By combining a massive 8000 mAh All-Day Battery with an expressive design and practical durability, the newest addition to the Y series is engineered to be a reliable partner for work and life, ready to help users power through their day.

Power that Lasts, Today and for Years to Come

At the heart of the vivo Y32 story is its extraordinary battery endurance, built to eliminate power anxiety from morning until night. For a delivery rider navigating the city, a contractor at a job site, or a professional moving between meetings, a dead battery means a disruption to their work. The vivo Y32 solves this with its massive 8000 mAh All-Day Battery, a power cell designed to support the most demanding schedules with fewer charging interruptions. Users can finally enjoy the freedom to use navigation for hours, stay in constant communication with clients, and still have enough power for entertainment on the commute home. It is truly a ‘’Business Never Stops’’ experience.

To put this capacity into perspective, a single charge can comfortably support an uninterrupted daily routine. Imagine waking up at dawn, running GPS turn-by-turn navigation, handling continuous client correspondence, taking real-time product photos, and streaming music in the background; all these can be done without battery anxiety. In a 12-hour mixed-use scenario, the Y32 finished with 20% battery remaining, leaving power for whatever comes next.

But true power is not just about a single day’s charge; it is about long-term reliability. The Y32 is built for the long run with its 6-Year Battery Health. Under vivo’s laboratory testing, the battery is engineered to retain at least 80% of its health after 1,500 complete charging cycles. Based on a full charge every 1.5 days, this is equivalent to approximately six years of reliable performance, ensuring the phone feels as dependable on day one as it does years later. The powerful battery can deliver stable performance even under extreme temperature conditions. Rigorous lab tests also show that Y32 can stand by for 4 hours at -20°C and can maintain storage function for 24 hours at -40°C, helping users brave through temperature challenges.

This long-term reliability is supported by a Smart Charging Engine that learns user habits to reduce unnecessary battery wear, and Overnight Charging Protection that intelligently completes charging before wake-up time. For those moments when a quick top-up is needed, 44W FlashCharge offers a fast and practical way to recharge during a short break, getting you back to your day without long delays.

A Design that Stands Out and Is Ready for Business

The Y32’s design ensures it remains a sophisticated and highly professional companion for any setting. The device moves beyond mere utility, presenting an expressive and sleek physical identity that serves as an elegant social business card for client meetings and formal occasions alike.

This premium look and feel is anchored by the Premium Metallic Camera Design, which provides a strong, modern visual signature for the rear of the phone. Rather than treating the camera as a purely functional element, vivo has elevated the module with a meticulously crafted metallic grain texture and precise detailing, transforming the camera area into a focal point of refined craftsmanship. This structural sophistication is further enhanced by Dynamic Light, which balances the entire camera design. It not only provides real-time, at-a-glance notifications for calls, messages, and key alerts, but also offers different colored light flashes with dynamic effects, bringing the phone to life and reflecting consumers’ style and mood.

Durability Built for the Unexpected Moments

The vivo Y32 is built to handle the realities of a busy workday. It features IP68 & IP69 Dust and Water Resistance, providing extra protection against demanding environments. Whether you are caught in a sudden downpour on your commute or working in a dusty outdoor environment, you can have confidence that your device is built to brave the elements.

This is reinforced with Anti-Drop Armor Design, which provides another layer of protection against the accidental bumps, knocks, and drops that can happen in real life. Backed by an SGS 5-Star Premium Performance Mark for Overall Unit Drop Resistance, the Y32 is designed to be resilient without the bulky look of a rugged phone. It is a device that looks expressive and fashionable while being better prepared for the small accidents of a demanding day.

Availability

The vivo Y32 will soon be officially available for purchase in Pakistan soon. The device will be offered in three colors: Twilight Red, Sunset Orange and Meteor White. To suit different storage and multitasking needs, the Y32 comes in (6GB+128GB) and (6GB+256GB) memory variants, priced at PKR 82,999 and PKR 99,999, respectively. Customers in Pakistan can pre-order the vivo Y32 starting October 26 and 27, 2026.

Two arrested in Karachi for posing as army officers to defraud citizens

KARACHI – The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) Karachi has arrested two suspects accused of posing as Pakistan Army officers to defraud citizens and extort money through false promises of getting official work done.

The NCCIA Karachi Zone conducted an operation in the Korangi Industrial Area and arrested the suspects, identified as Muzammil, son of Badruddin Qureshi, and Hamza, son of Muhammad Aslam.

Authorities said the suspects allegedly impersonated senior military and government officials and falsely claimed to have influence and connections within the armed forces and government departments.

The suspects allegedly used the name and reputation of the Pakistan Army to gain the trust of citizens and collect substantial amounts of money by promising assistance with transfers, appointments and other official matters.

Officials said the accused misled people by presenting themselves as authorised military officers and making false assurances that they could facilitate various government and departmental processes in exchange for money.

Both suspects were arrested in Karachi’s Korangi Industrial Area. An FIR, numbered 114/2026, has been registered against them under Section 109 of the Pakistan Penal Code and Sections 13, 14 and 16 of the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA), as amended in 2025, according to the information provided by authorities.

Father arrested in Islamabad for selling sexually abusive videos of own children

ISLAMABAD – The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) has arrested a man for allegedly recording and selling sexually abusive videos of his own children in Islamabad.

Speaking at a press conference in Islamabad, NCCIA Additional Director Muhammad Shoaib Khan said the suspect, who belongs to Skardu, was allegedly selling videos involving his own children, aged between five and six years.

According to the official, the network targeted children ranging in age from six or seven to 15 years and used Telegram to sell the abusive material.

Khan said the investigation also uncovered evidence of videos involving animal abuse and sexual violence against animals linked to the network.

He added that the investigation continued for a month with assistance from international organisations. Further inquiries are under way in Multan, Islamabad and parts of southern Punjab.

Shoaib Khan said parents would be educated on how to monitor the content their children access on mobile phones. He added that action would also be taken against parents who fail to report their children’s involvement in criminal activities, even after becoming aware of it.

Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye officials to meet Iranian leadership amid Houthi attack

TEHRAN – Top representatives from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye are scheduled to meet Iranian officials in Tehran on Monday, October 26, to discuss regional developments amid rising tensions following Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia.

According to Reuters, citing sources familiar with the matter, the meeting will bring together representatives of all three countries that signed the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement.

Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff and Chief of Defence Forces Field Marshal Asim Munir, is expected to attend the talks. Saudi Arabia will be represented by Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman, while Turkiye’s intelligence chief is also expected to participate.

The meeting will mark the first high-level engagement between Iran and all three defence pact members since attacks by Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis against Saudi Arabia intensified.

Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye signed the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement in August. The pact establishes a collective defence commitment under which an armed attack against one member is treated as an attack against all three.

The agreement also calls on the signatories to take necessary measures to address threats to one another’s territorial integrity, sovereignty and internationally recognised borders.

Progress on formal approval of the agreement differs among the three countries. Pakistan approved the pact last week, while the ratification process in Turkiye’s parliament began last week and remains ongoing.

The planned Tehran meeting comes amid heightened regional tensions and is expected to provide a high-level channel for discussions between Iran and the three countries.

LPG prices in Pakistan today October 26 amid escalating regional tensions

LAHORE – Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) prices remain elevated in Pakistani as per kilogram rates hover between Rs600 and Rs650 in some cities amid strike by retailers and ongoing regional tensions.

In Quetta, the LPG price stands at Rs520 per kilogram. LPG is being sold for Rs570 per kilogram in Peshawar, Rs600 in Attock, Rawalpindi and Islamabad, and Rs550 in Karachi.

The arrival of two ships carrying LPG from Oman has raised hopes of a possible reduction in prices. However, rates in several parts of the country have yet to reflect any significant relief.

Meanwhile, Iran has clarified that its border with Pakistan remains open and that exports of Iranian goods, including LPG, are continuing without restrictions.

Iranian Ambassador to Pakistan Reza Amiri Moghadam addressed reports about a possible border closure in a statement on X, saying Iran’s borders with neighbouring countries remain open.

He also said closing the border with Pakistan would not make sense under the current circumstances and would run counter to the interests of both countries.

The clarification comes as Pakistan’s LPG market continues to face high prices, with consumers awaiting the impact of additional supplies on local rates.

According to the election results, Lula received 51.75 percent of the votes, while right-wing candidate Bolsonaro secured 48.25 percent.

Sunday’s voting was extended by two hours following a Supreme Court order issued in response to travel and transportation difficulties. Polling continued until 7pm under the decision.

Following the first-round setback, left-wing supporters intensified their campaign, organising large public gatherings under the slogan “Never Again Bolsonaro” and adopting a renewed approach to online campaigning.

Voter turnout also improved in the runoff, with the abstention rate dropping from 21% in the first round to 19%.

Lula previously served as Brazil’s president for two consecutive terms from 2003 to 2011 before returning to power for a third term in 2023.
