vivo Y15a

The Vivo Y15a is a budget phone released in November 2021, still available in the market. This review provides an impression of the device, highlighting its features and performance. The phone's design is sleek and modern, with a matte finish that resists fingerprints. It comes in two color options: wave green and mystic blue. The phone has a water drop notch display with a 720p resolution, which is acceptable for budget phones but not as sharp or colorful as higher-end devices. Performance-wise, the Vivo Y15a runs on an old Mediatek Helio P25 chip with 4GB of RAM, making it suitable for basic tasks like browsing and social media scrolling. However, gaming performance may be compromised, especially for demanding games like Call of Duty Mobile. The phone's battery life is strong, with a 5000mAh capacity that can last more than a day on light usage. The camera setup includes a 13MP primary sensor and a 2MP depth sensor, while the front camera has an 8MP resolution. Video recording capabilities are capped at 1080p for both rear and front cameras. The phone runs on FunTouch OS based on Android 12, but lacks customization options compared to higher-end devices. The Vivo Y15a has only one configuration: 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, priced at 7999 pesos. In comparison, the Y15s model with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage is available for 619 pesos. Overall, the Vivo Y15a offers decent performance and battery life but may not be suitable for demanding users or gamers due to its old processor and limited camera capabilities.

vivo Y02s

The Vivo Y02s is an entry-level smartphone that boasts a 5000mAh battery, premium design, and construction at an affordable price. The phone comes with a USB-C cable, which is a nice addition, but lacks earphones. Design-wise, the Y02s looks like a premium phone, with a boxy shape, flat side panels, and a soft-touch material on the back. The phone's bezel has a ballroom rocker and power button on the right-hand side, a single bottom-firing speaker, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The camera system features a single rear 8MP camera with autofocus and a dual-camera setup, where the second lens is actually a flash disguise. 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.
