vivo Y15s

The Vivo Y15S is an entry-level smartphone that defies expectations, offering a premium feel at an affordable price point. With 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, this device performs admirably for its class. Design-wise, the phone features a plastic body with a wave green color that looks stunning, weighing in at 179 grams. The rectangular rear camera module and fingerprint sensor are notable highlights. While not ideal for one-handed use, the phone's size is perfectly balanced. Display quality is another strength of this device, boasting a 6.5-inch IPS display with a 720x1600 resolution. Media consumption is seamless, with vibrant colors and good contrast levels. The Mediatek P35 processor powers Android 11, although some may find it underwhelming considering the price point. The camera setup includes a 13MP primary sensor and a 2MP macro lens, producing decent photos in well-lit conditions but struggling with dynamic range. A 5,000mAh battery provides long battery life, albeit slow charging speeds of around three hours to full charge. Ultimately, the Vivo Y15S is a capable device that feels like more than an entry-level smartphone. While it may be overpriced and feature a relatively modest processor, its premium build quality and respectable performance make it a solid choice for casual users and those looking for their first Vivo experience. However, some users might find the pricing too steep considering the chip used. A budget-friendly device that punches above its weight class, the Vivo Y15S is worth considering for its excellent battery life and premium build quality.

vivo Y36

The Vivo Y36 5G is an entry-level smartphone that promises to deliver 5G connectivity, a 9Hz display, large 5000mAh battery, and a 50MP camera at a budget-friendly price. The phone's design features a sleek and modern look with a glass front, plastic back, and plastic frame, but it's a fingerprint magnet. The device boasts a 6.64-inch IPS LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate, making everything look smoother and more responsive. The display also has good viewing angles and color accuracy, although it's not perfect. Under the hood, the phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6020 chipset, an 8GB RAM, and 256GB internal storage. While gaming performance is average, the phone can handle smooth performance. The device runs on Funtouch OS 13, based on Android 13, with a clean and simple interface. The Y36 5G's camera features a dual rear setup with a 50MP main camera and a 2MP depth sensor. While it takes decent photos in good lighting conditions, the quality is average. The front camera is a 16MP sensor that takes selfies with good clarity. The phone has a large 5000mAh battery that lasts for a full day of moderate usage, with fast charging capabilities. However, the build quality is plastic, and there's no ultra-wide lens or mono speaker. Overall, the Vivo Y36 5G offers a lot of value for its price, making it a good option for those looking for a budget-friendly smartphone with decent performance, long battery life, and 5G connectivity.
