The Vivo Y17s is a budget phone that offers decent specifications for its price point. The device features 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 chipset. One notable feature is the IP54 rating, making it suitable for everyday use in environments where exposure to dust or occasional splashes is a concern. The phone's display is an IPS LCD screen with a resolution of 720p and 7,000 nits peak brightness, which makes it readable under the sun. The body is made of plastic, but it feels sturdy despite the IP54 rating. However, the side fingerprint scanner has some issues, resulting in more misses than successful unlocks. In terms of gaming performance, the Y17s handled mobile games like PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty smoothly at default graphics settings. However, there were occasional lag and frame drops when playing Fortnite with medium and minimal graphic settings. The rear camera performed surprisingly well, with accurate focusing and decent quality photos even in challenging lighting conditions. However, night mode was necessary to take better photos, and the front-facing camera struggled with washed-out backgrounds and inconsistent lighting. Overall, the Vivo Y17s is a mixed bag. While it offers some impressive features for its price point, there are also some notable drawbacks that may deter potential buyers. If you're in the market for a budget phone, it's worth considering the competition to find a device that better meets your needs.
