Editorial report

vivo G2 4 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet

The vivo G2 suits buyers looking for a slim, lightweight 5G phone who can accept a modest-resolution display and limited memory. At 186 g and 8.1 mm thick, it is lighter and thinner than most phones of its time. 5G, NFC and dual-SIM support round out the feature set for people who need those connections.

Its 6.56-inch IPS LCD runs at 90 Hz, but the 269 ppi density and refresh rate are both below those of most phones launched around the same time. The MediaTek Dimensity 6020 is paired with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Both memory figures are below what most phones of its time offer, and storage cannot be expanded.

The 13 MP camera resolution is below most phones of its time, while its f/2.2 aperture is among the weakest; optical image stabilization is also absent. A 5000 mAh battery is typical, but 15 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time. Other features include IP54 protection, Android 13, a 3.5 mm audio jack and reverse charging.

With an overall NeoScore of 4.8, the vivo G2 sits below most phones of its time overall. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize 5G, NFC and a slim body and can live with clear limits in the display, memory, camera and charging.
