Editorial report

vivo Y78 technical sheet

The vivo Y78 suits people looking for a large, bright display, but this China-market version has no Google Services. Its 6.78-inch AMOLED display reaches 1300 nits, brighter than the displays on most phones of its time. The 90.3% screen-to-body ratio is among the highest, and the refresh rate is 120 Hz. The phone weighs 177 g and is 7.9 mm thick.

Its camera has 64 MP resolution, higher than that of most phone cameras from its time, and includes optical image stabilization. Video recording is listed at 1080p and 30 fps, with slow motion at 960 fps. A Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 powers the phone, with 8 GB of RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. This configuration has 128 GB; the phone is also sold with 256 GB of storage and with 12 GB of RAM.

The battery has a 5000 mAh capacity and supports 44 W fast charging, both typical figures for phones of its time. The operating system is Android 13, but the phone has neither Google Services nor direct OS updates. Its overall NeoScore is 6.4, and its overall standing is typical among phones launched around the same time. It is best suited to buyers who value the display and optical image stabilization and can do without Google Services.
