Evidence-based overview

Y05 technical sheet

The vivo Y05 runs Android 16 on a 6.74-inch IPS LCD with a 120 Hz refresh rate, 1,200-nit peak brightness and 180 Hz touch sampling. Its 20:9 panel has a 720 × 1,600-pixel resolution, curved glass and scratch resistance. A side-mounted fingerprint sensor is joined by stereo speakers, a 3.5 mm audio jack, NFC, FM radio, infrared and USB Type-C.

Its 6,500 mAh Li-Ion battery has a documented 58-hour endurance figure, supports 15 W fast charging and reverse charging, and comes with a charger. The body is 8.4 mm thick and weighs 209 g. IP65 and MIL-STD-810H are listed, but both the drop-resistance and repairability classes are C, so these markings should not be treated as a guarantee against every kind of damage.

The hardware uses an Unisoc T7225 octa-core processor running up to 2 GHz, 4 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 128 GB of expandable eMMC 5.1 storage. The 8 Mpx rear camera records 1080p at 30 fps, while the front camera is 5 Mpx. It suits users who prioritise a large battery, broad connectivity and a 120 Hz display over higher screen definition or a more advanced camera system.

Highlights

  • 16,500 mAh battery with a documented 58-hour endurance
  • 2120 Hz display with 1,200-nit peak brightness
  • 3Broad connectivity with NFC, infrared, FM radio, USB Type-C and dual Nano-SIM
  • 4Stereo speakers and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor

Things to consider

  • 14 GB of RAM and eMMC 5.1 storage leave less hardware headroom.
  • 2The 720 × 1,600-pixel display has a density of 260 ppi.
  • 3The 8 Mpx main camera has no optical image stabilization.
