The front camera fares better, producing sharp photos in indoor lighting. Performance-wise, the Y02s has decent performance for a budget phone, handling basic tasks like social media, watching videos, and switching between apps. However, it struggles with heavier apps, multitasking, and gaming, resulting in noticeable lags and slowdowns. The battery life is impressive, lasting up to 5 days of standby time and 9 hours of screen-on time. The phone charges quickly using its stock charging brick, but takes almost three hours to reach full charge. Overall, the Vivo Y02s excels in design and battery departments but falls short on performance. It's a suitable option for those looking for an affordable phone that can handle social media, selfies, and basic tasks, but not much more.
