Editorial report

vivo Y51 (2020, September) technical sheet

The vivo Y51 (2020, September) suits everyday use for someone who values a strong display and a flexible camera setup, but its 4 GB of RAM is below average for phones of its time. That is the main trade-off against other models; storage is 128 GB and expandable.

Its 6.38-inch Super AMOLED display has a pixel density of 404 ppi, better than most phones launched around the same time. The display itself is among the best of its time. The camera setup includes a 48 MP camera, an 8 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP macro camera, and the camera overall is better than most phones of its time. Video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps.

The 4,500 mAh battery capacity is above average for phones of its time, while 18 W fast charging is average. The phone also has dual Nano-SIM, USB Type-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack and Android 10. Performance and hardware are average, while connectivity is below average. Its overall NeoScore is 5.3, above average. The Y51 makes most sense for buyers who put screen quality and camera versatility ahead of having more RAM.
