Editorial report

vivo Y29 4G technical sheet

The vivo Y29 4G suits people who prioritize a large battery and want a phone with a large display. Its trade-offs are pixel density that is lower than on most phones of its time and a camera without optical image stabilization.

Its 6500 mAh battery has more capacity than that of most phones launched around the same time. It supports 44 W charging and reverse charging. The 6.68″ IPS LCD display has a 120 Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of 1000 nits. Its resolution is 720 × 1608 px, with a density of 264 ppi, lower than on most phones of its time.

The Snapdragon 685 comes with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of expandable eMMC 5.1 storage. The rear camera has 50 MP resolution and records video at 1080p at 30 fps; the 8 MP front camera also records at 1080p at 30 fps. Other features include NFC, USB Type-C, Bluetooth 5.0, stereo speakers, and Android 15. The body has IP64 and MIL-STD-810H ratings.

With a NeoScore of 5.3, the vivo Y29 4G has a typical overall standing among phones of its time. It is best suited to people who value battery capacity more than display sharpness or optical image stabilization.
