The Vivo Y15 is clad in polycarbonate material with a reflective glass-like finish that shimmers in Red and Blue variants. There’s a fingerprint scanner on the back and a teardrop notch up front. Speaking of, you’re dealing with an IPS LCD 6.35″ 720p display, but with an 89% screen-to-body ratio. Other than that, it has an Helio P22 12nm 2.0GHz octa-core processor running FunTouch OS 9.
You will want to buy the Y15 for its battery and cameras. Inside the device is a large 5000mAh which, unfortunately, still charges via micro USB port. As for the cameras, the front cam makes do with a 16MP lens. While the back features a 13MP main + 8MP ultra wide 120FoV + 2MP depth — all powered by AI.
We’re still unsure if it will ever arrive in the Philippines. What do you think of the Vivo Y15?
