Editorial report

vivo Y28s 8 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet

The vivo Y28s suits anyone looking for a 5G phone for everyday tasks who values a lighter build. At 185 g, it weighs less than most phones launched around the same time. Its overall standing and connectivity are typical for phones of its time, rather than defining advantages.

This configuration has 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. The vivo Y28s is also sold in 4 GB / 128 GB and 6 GB / 128 GB configurations. Its 6.56″ IPS LCD display has a 720 × 1612 px resolution and a 90 Hz refresh rate, which is lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. That is a limitation for anyone prioritizing a faster-refreshing display.

The 5000 mAh battery is typical for its time, while 15 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time. The camera trails most phones from that period: its 50 MP resolution is typical, and it has no optical image stabilization. Other listed features include Android 14, NFC, Bluetooth 5.4 and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

The vivo Y28s combines 5G and a relatively light body in an everyday-use phone, but its display, charging and camera have clear limitations. Its NeoScore is 5.3. That makes it a better fit for someone who prioritizes essential features and lower weight than for someone seeking a faster display or a more capable camera.
