vivo Y51 (2020, December) technical sheet
The vivo Y51 (2020, December) suits anyone looking for an everyday phone with a large display and substantial battery capacity. Its main trade-off is connectivity, which is below average for phones of its time; the USB port uses USB 2.0.
The 6.58-inch IPS LCD display has a 1080 × 2408 px resolution and 401 ppi pixel density. That density is higher than most phones of its time. The Snapdragon 665 is paired with 8 GB of RAM, more than most phones of the period offer, and 128 GB of expandable storage.
The rear camera setup includes a 48 MP camera, an 8 MP ultrawide camera, and a 2 MP macro camera; the front camera is 16 MP. Overall camera performance is better than that of most phones of its time. Its 5,000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones of the period, while 18 W fast charging is average.
The vivo Y51 brings together a large, high-density display, generous RAM, and expandable storage, with connectivity as the weaker point. Overall, it is above average among phones of its time and earns a NeoScore of 5.4. It is worth considering for buyers who put display, memory, and battery capacity ahead of more capable connectivity.
