vivo Y73

The Vivo Y73 is an upper-entry level smartphone that packs a punch with its 6.4-inch AMOLED display, 64-megapixel main rear camera, and fast 33-watt charging technology. However, at the price of PHP 14,899, it's questionable whether it's worth it. The phone boasts a trendy design with a diamond flare variant that gives a premium feel, but may not be as premium as some other options in its class. The body is made of plastic with an anti-glare glass coating on top, making it comfortable to grip and lightweight at 170 grams. The Y73's display is a highlight, with vibrant colors and deep blacks, perfect for video watching. However, the audio quality takes a hit due to only one downward-firing speaker, which can be improved with headphones or external speakers. Powering this device is the Mediatek G95 chipset, which is good enough for basic tasks like browsing and social media use. The phone's performance is fine when playing graphically-intensive games, but may experience stutters in crowded scenes. The Y73 also boasts a modern set of connectivity features, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, 4G LTE, GPS, and FM radio. The battery life is decent, lasting a day or two with moderate usage, and the phone's cameras take pretty good shots in ample lighting, but struggle in low-light conditions. Overall, the Vivo Y73 is a reliable daily driver with its trendy design and good set of cameras, but may not be the best option for heavy gamers. Its price point makes it competitive in the market, but there are other devices that offer better performance at the same price range.

Its Forest Green back panel has a matte finish that resembles leather, making it comfortable to hold and providing good grip.

With an affordable price tag of 8,999 pesos, this device offers decent performance, cameras, and battery life, making it a solid entry-level option for those seeking value without sacrificing style.
