Editorial report

vivo Y36 technical sheet

The vivo Y36 suits anyone looking for an everyday phone with a large display and fast charging. Its main trade-off is the camera: it ranks below most phones of its time and has no optical image stabilization.

The 6.64-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 1080 × 2388 px. Its 90 Hz refresh rate is lower than that of most phones of its time, a consideration for anyone who prioritizes a high refresh rate. The body is 8.1 mm thick, thinner than most phones launched around the same time, and has IP54 resistance.

The 50 MP rear camera has an f/1.8 aperture but no optical image stabilization; the camera overall ranks below most phones of its time. The 5000 mAh battery supports 44 W charging, and the battery overall stands better than most phones of its time. This version has 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage; the vivo Y36 is also sold with 8 GB / 256 GB. It runs Android 13, includes NFC, and supports expandable storage.

With a NeoScore of 5.1, the vivo Y36 is a suitable choice for anyone who values a large display, fast charging, and a thin body, and can accept a camera without optical image stabilization.
