Vivo Y77e brings competitive pricing to budget phones balancing out the basic features with decent performance and its massive array of batteries. It sports a 6.58-inch IPS LED screen, decent 4/8GB RAM, a massive 5000mAh battery, 44w fast charging, and the decent Snapdragon 680 chipset. That’s certainly eye-catching a device at its price point

Design

Vivo Y77e comes with a 6.58-inch IPS LCD screen with a dew drop notch design for the selfie camera. It’s a huge phone, hardly a one-handed operation, with a screen-to-body ratio of 83.9%. It has a plastic frame and back and a scratch-resistant front panel. It is very bright and vivid, peaking at 500 nits. It’s not rated for splash protection, but it’s certainly not waterproof. Fortunately, it has top-placed a headphone jack. It has a physical fast side-mounted fingerprint sensor, which also acts as the home button. It has a downward-firing speaker, which is great for playing media.

Performance

Vivo Y77e comes with the flagship Mediatek Dimensity 810, making it decently fast. It has a Cortex Octa-core CPU paired with a Mali G57 GPU, with storage options of 6/8 GB for RAM & 64 or 128/256 GB for ROM. It also comes with a hybrid expandable memory option, which it shares with the sim card. It is running the latest Android 12, with an Origin OS Ocean skin on top. The performance feels fast, smooth and rich in color. It however comes with lots of pre-installed apps, which can be an underwhelming experience, especially if you are not used to bloatware. The OS is however very customizable, with tones of themes and other customizations.

Cameras

Vivo Y77e has a triple camera arrangement on the back. It comes with a 13 MP primary sensor, for those excellent daylight photos. Additionally, it has a 2MP macro for close-up snaps. It still delivers decently and colorfully. It will predictably deliver less and less as light reduces, but that’s the concession for this price. The video can support up to 1080p video at 30 fps, with HDR support. The selfie camera is a decent 8MP wide sensor, capable of 1080p video at 30fps. The selfies are great and well-lit.

Other features

The Vivo Y77e supports USB Type C, with 18W fast charging. Needless to say, there is also no wireless charging. On the flip side, it comes with a massive Li-Po 5000mAh non-removable battery that supports reverse charging. It can get 100% charged in just over an hour. Despite being a midrange phone, the addition of the fairly quick chipset & big battery really does turn the tables for this device. It truly is a beautiful device to look at. There is no NFC for contactless payments and a radio. It comes in Black, Blue and Pink.

Similarly, priced phones would include Samsung Galaxy A23, Xiaomi Redmi Note 11, the Oppo A16K, and Realme C25Y. the main distinction at this price point is often a choice of a better camera or more memory. The sizes are usually standard and the batteries are often huge. It’s unlikely there are fast charging options as the price is too competitive.

The design is great and looks at par with many midranges in the market now. The OS will feel right at home, especially if you have used a Vivo phone before.
