Vivo has silently unveiled a new entry-level phone called the Vivo Y02. It has arrived as the successor to the Vivo Y01, which went official earlier this year. The Y02 is positioned lower than the Vivo Y02s, which went official in August this year.
Vivo Y02 specifications and features
The Vivo Y02 features a 6.51-inch IPS LCD waterdrop notch display that produces an HD+ resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels and an aspect ratio of 20:9. On the front, it has a 5-megapixel selfie camera. The camera island present on the phone’s back has a round-shaped module, which houses an 8-megapixel camera and an LED flash.
The official listing only says that the Vivo Y02 is powered by an octa-core processor. Leaked information from the past few days shows that it is powered by the Helio P22 chip, which came out in 2018.
The SoC is coupled with 2 GB / 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal storage. For more storage, the device is equipped with a microSD card slot. It houses a 5,000mAh battery that supports 10W charging via microUSB 2.0.
The entry-level phone runs on Android 12 (Go edition). It offers other features like dual SIM, 4G VoLTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, and a 3.5mm audio jack. It lacks a fingerprint scanner. The device measures 163.99 x 75.63 x 8.49mm and weighs around 186 grams.
In comparison, the Vivo Y02s is equipped with the Helio P35 chipset and features a USB-C port for charging. It also comes with up to 4 GB of RAM and up to 64 GB of storage. The rest of the specs are identical on both smartphones.
