May 14, 2021

Recently, a vivo smartphone called vivo Y76s was spotted on the 3C certification bureau, IMEI database, and CEIR database. One of these listings revealed the phone’s 18W charging support. Whereas, another said the handset to be limited to 4G. But now, this device’s TENAA certification confirms it to be a 5G smartphone.

According to TENAA, the upcoming vivo Y76s with model number V2111A will be a 5G handset. Hence, it should launch as ‘vivo Y76s 5G’.

As per the listing, the phone will feature a 6.58-inch display and a 4,910mAh battery (rated capacity). The device will come with dual-SIM and Android 11. However, it’s not known whether it will run Funtouch OS 11 or OriginOS.

Lastly, the listing says that the handset will measure 163.95 x 75.30 x 8.50mm in dimensions.

Usually, TENAA listings include the entire specs as well as images of smartphones. But at times, they get added gradually. Hence, the listing of vivo Y76s 5G does not have much information at the moment.

Anyway, we expect to learn more about this phone before its official announcement sometime in the near future. But it is worth noting that some vivo budget smartphones get a silent release in China. Hence, there’s a chance that vivo Y76s 5G may launch in a similar manner.

Anyway, the listings say that NTH-AN00 (possible HONOR 50) will ship with an HW-110600C00 66W charger. This is the same power adapter that comes bundled with the HONOR V40 series. In other words, the HONOR 50 will support 66W fast charging.

On the other hand, NRA-AN00 (possible HONOR 50 Pro) will come with an all-new HN-200500C00 100W charger. Hence, the HONOR 50 Pro could be the first smartphone from the brand to support 100W fast charging.

As per another tipster, the 100W charging on the HONOR 50 Pro could be based on Qualcomm Quick Charge 5. However, there’s no concrete proof for this claim.
