Editorial report
vivo Y12G technical sheet
The vivo Y12G suits anyone looking for an Android phone for basic needs who values a 5000 mAh battery. Its main trade-off is memory: it has 3 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, with expandable storage available. It supports two Nano-SIM cards and runs Android 11.
The 6.51-inch IPS LCD has a pixel density of 270 ppi, lower than that of most phones of its time. Its rear camera has 13 MP resolution, also below most phones launched around the same time; it includes an f/1.8 aperture, continuous autofocus, and 1080p video recording at 30 fps. Overall, its camera specifications are worse than those of most phones from that period.
The 5000 mAh battery capacity is typical, while 5 W wireless charging is among the best of its time. Performance and hardware, as well as connectivity, are worse than those of most phones launched around the same time. The vivo Y12G earns an overall NeoScore of 4.1: a fit for basic needs, with wireless charging as a standout feature and clear limitations in memory, display, and camera.
