vivo Y12s (2021) technical sheet
The vivo Y12s (2021) suits people looking for a basic phone for everyday tasks, especially those who value a slim body. Its main trade-off is performance: 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage are lower than those of most phones launched around the same time. Storage is expandable, but that does not add RAM to this configuration.
At 8.4 mm thick, it is slimmer than most phones of its time. The 6.51-inch IPS LCD display has a 720 × 1600 px resolution and 270 ppi pixel density, lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. The rear cameras comprise a 13 MP camera and a 2 MP depth camera; the 13 MP camera's f/2.2 aperture is among the weakest of its time. Video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps, and the front camera is 8 MP.
The battery has a capacity of 5,000 mAh, while 10 W charging is slower than that of most phones of its time. It supports Dual Nano-SIM, Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2, and includes a 3.5 mm audio jack and microUSB. Android 11 is the operating system, and the fingerprint sensor is on the side. With a NeoScore of 3.9, the Y12s is a straightforward choice for people who need basic features; limited memory and slower charging are the main points to weigh.
