vivo Y500s 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The vivo Y500s suits buyers who prioritize a very large battery and a broad display, provided they can accept a heavier body and modest image density. Its main trade-off is 256 ppi, lower than on most phones of its time, while the 219 g weight is also heavier than most.
The 7,200 mAh battery is the phone’s strongest point, with more capacity than most phones of its time. Its 44 W fast charging is typical, and reverse charging is included. The 6.75″ IPS LCD runs at 120 Hz and reaches 1,200 nits, but the 720 × 1570 px resolution limits sharpness. IP68 and IP69 protection guard against water and dust.
The 50 MP rear camera with an f/1.8 aperture is typical, yet the camera is worse than most phones of its time. It lacks optical image stabilization and records video at 1080p at 30 fps. The Snapdragon 4 Gen 2, 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage put performance in a typical position, with 456,552 points in AnTuTu v10. Connectivity is worse than on most phones, despite 5G, NFC and dual-SIM support.
With a NeoScore of 5.8, the vivo Y500s is best suited to buyers who value battery capacity and protection over advanced photography or a particularly sharp display.
