Earlier this year, Vivo released a smartphone called Vivo Y36 in multiple global markets. It comes in both 4G and 5G variants. Now, months later, the company has launched a different handset under the same name in China.

Unlike the original, the new Vivo Y36 only comes in a 5G variant. Also, it arrives with downgraded specs. Let’s go through the details.

Vivo Y36 (China) Specifications

The Vivo Y36 for China not only differs in terms of specs but also design. It retains the rectangular island with circular cameras. But the LED flashlight is located below the cameras instead of to the right.

Further, the Chinese Y36 has a smaller 6.56-inch display compared to the 6.64-inch screen on the global Vivo Y36 5G. The panel even has a dewdrop notch as opposed to a centered punch hole.

Coming to the specs, the display only offers an HD+ resolution (compared to FHD) but retains a 90Hz refresh rate. It is powered by the same MediaTek Dimensity 6020 chip (previously known as Dimensity 700) paired with LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.2 storage.

The main and selfie cameras are downgraded to 13MP and 5MP sensors compared to 50MP and 16MP sensors on the global model. Anyways, the 2MP depth sensor makes a return.

The phone arrives with a 3.5mm headphone jack, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, and Android 13. Finally, it is backed by the same 5,000mAh battery, however, the charging speed is lowered to 15W from 44W.
