vivo Y200 Pro Review: A Budget 5G Phone With Powerful Specs

Vivo recently launched the Y200 Pro as an affordable 5G-enabled smartphone targeting budget-conscious consumers. Priced around ₹24,999, does the Y200 Pro offer good value for money? Here’s my review after checking out the full specs on GSMArena.

Design and Display

The Y200 Pro has a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and a crisp 388 PPI pixel density. This is an impressive screen for the price, and it even supports a super smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The body has a decent 174g weight and IP54 dust/water resistance rating. It comes in attractive Silk Black and Green color options.

Performance and Hardware

Under the hood is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G processor with 8GB RAM for smooth daily usage. Storage is generous 128GB which should be enough for most users. Graphics are handled by the Adreno 619 GPU. The phone supports both SA and NSA 5G network standards for future-proof connectivity.

Cameras

The triple rear camera setup includes a 64MP main camera along with a 2MP depth sensor. Selfies are handled by a 16MP front camera. Video recording maxes out at 1080p which is standard at this price point.

Battery Life

A large 5000mAh battery powers the device and vivo promises all-day usage on a single charge. It also supports 44W fast charging to top up the battery quickly when running low on juice.

Preliminary Verdict

On paper, the vivo Y200 Pro looks like a very capable 5G smartphone for its price in India. Specs like the 120Hz AMOLED display, Snapdragon 695 processor, and 128GB storage surpass expectations at ₹24,999. I’ll need to spend more time testing real-world performance and cameras. But first impressions suggest the Y200 Pro provides great value for an affordable 5G device.
