Editorial report
vivo Y12s 3 GB / 32 GB / International technical sheet
The vivo Y12s suits buyers looking for a basic phone who value battery capacity more than fast charging. Its 5,000 mAh battery holds more than that of most phones of its time, while 10 W charging is slower than on most. At 8.4 mm thick, it is slimmer than most phones launched around the same time.
The 6.51-inch IPS LCD display has a 60 Hz refresh rate and 720 × 1600 resolution. Both the refresh rate and 270 ppi density are below those of most phones from its time. For basic tasks, the configuration pairs 3 GB of RAM with 32 GB of expandable storage. Its performance is worse than in most phones of its time, and the listed AnTuTu result is 101,000.
The 13 MP main camera has an f/2.2 aperture and no optical image stabilization. The camera is worse than that of most phones launched around the same time, and its aperture is among the least bright. The setup also includes a 2 MP depth camera, an 8 MP front camera, a side fingerprint sensor, dual SIM, Android 10 and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
With a NeoScore of 3.9, the vivo Y12s is a basic option for buyers who prioritize a high-capacity battery and expandable storage, and can accept modest performance, a low-density display and slower charging.
