Ans) The Vivo Y100 is an out-and-out mid-ranger that falls in the 25k price segment in the country. It comes with fast SoC, a good 64MP camera lens, and a stunning color-changing design, but has its own share of niggles as well. The smartphone doesn’t have a strong IP Rating, has bloatware, an underwhelming display, and a 4500mAh battery. However, if you want a device that falls in your under 30,000 budget, has decent performance, and shows off your stylish personality, then Vivo Y100 can be your choice.

The battery could have been bumped up to 5000mAh for sure, which is pretty standard nowadays. 6) How is the camera of Vivo Y100? Ans) Vivo Y100 packs a 4500mAh battery under the hood. The battery lasts an entire day with moderate usage but drains out faster when long gaming sessions or content consumption sessions are done on the device. It comes with 44W Flash fast charging that charges the device from 0 to 100% in just under an hour which is good. The battery could have been bumped up to 5000mAh for sure, which is pretty standard nowadays. The camera also comes with features like panorama, live photo, slow-mo, time-lapse, pro, double exposure, and dual view. 7) How is the performance of Vivo Y100? Ans) Vivo Y100 is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 900 chipset that is fast as well as efficient. The 6nm chipset allows a multitude of apps to open and load quickly and there are no lags when switching between different running apps. There is 8GB RAM and it did its part well as even 15-20 apps ran in the background smoothly without any slowing down or crashing. The smartphone runs FunTouch OS 13 based on Android 13 and although the UI is user-friendly, colorful, and good-looking, there’s loads of pre-installed bloatware. Apps like Moj, Snapchat, Dailyhunt, Byjus, share chat, Josh, and Netflix are already loaded and you will have to remove those which you don’t want. For a device that costs above 20,000, bloatware should have been minimized. Connectivity options include Bluetooth 5.2, WiFi, GPS, OTG, USB Type-C, and more, and the device is 5G capable. This is where it will earn more brownie points as many might prefer spending 25k on a 5G smartphone. It comes with a good quality speaker that supports Hi-Res audio and Dolby Atmos and the calling experience is decent as well.
