Announcement. Vivo Y36 4G is a simple modern smartphone for Indonesia

Vivo announced in Indonesia a smartphone called Vivo Y36, which I will immediately rename to helpix for clarity.
Vivo Y36 4G. Because there are rumors that a namesake with support for 5G networks is also about to appear.

Similar smartphones from Vivo are about a wagon and a small trolley. But I do not see exact copies for Vivo Y36 4G. Although in all respects, except for the chipset, it duplicates, for example, the Chinese Vivo Y78 5G.

And from models with an identical chipset, you can poke,for example, in Vivo Y35 4G 2022. A different appearance, a slightly different screen, and there is an additional auxiliary camera. But, by and large, it is, of course, the same device.

Let's go through the characteristics.

Chipset - Qualcomm Snapdragon 680. Not very powerful and without support for 5G networks. In AnTuTu we are waiting for about 250 thousand points.

It is not customary to be greedy with memory now. 8 GB operational, 256 GB permanent. Plus, memory cards are supported.

The screen is average. Diagonal 6.64 ″ (107 cm²), resolution 1080 × 2388 (395 ppi). Refresh rate up to 90 Hz.

The battery is in order. The capacity is large, 5000 mAh. Charging is moderately fast - 44 watts.

Cameras are unlikely to please us much. The front camera has a resolution of 16 MP. On the back is a classic budget duo 50 + 2 MP - the main camera and a depth sensor.

There is an NFC module. Wi-Fi dual band. Type-C and standard audio output are available. The fingerprint scanner is in the classic right place, ie. combined with the power button.

Vivo Y36 will cost 3,399,000 rupees (₽18,300, $228) at the start of sales.
