The vivo Y100 is here! It’s a stunner literally with amazing aesthetics, tanky battery, and durable body.
Every moment is important but you can easily miss things if you blink or look away. It also applies on your smartphone when you need to capture the best scene and its battery dies.
Fortunately, vivo is here to the rescue with the new vivo Y100. You’ll never miss any moments, thanks to its tanky battery. Not only that, but the smartphone can also charge very quickly so you can get back on your feet fast.
Unboxing
The vivo Y100 comes in a white rectangular box with the big “Y” written on the top cover. The bottom of the box highlights the key specs of the handset, including the screen and battery.
The unit is the first thing seen after removing the top cover. A white separator is placed underneath it where the other things to get you started are found. Those include the clear phone case, charging cable, charging brick, card ejector tool, and some paperwork.
Our vivo Y100 is the Breeze Green color variant with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of onboard storage. The charging brick supports two charging configurations in 18W fast charging and 80W turbo charging.
The charging cable, meanwhile, is USB-A to USB-C. It isn’t a bother unless you want super fast data transfer. At the end of the day, the cable can recharge the vivo Y100 with 80W FlashCharge technology at an insane but safe charging speed.
Design
The vivo Y100 has a stunning beauty, almost ethereal. The rear design seems alive, especially if it interacts with sunlight.
The Color Changing Fluorite AG Glass reacts to UV light and shifts accordingly in a few seconds. When it does, you’ll see the dynamic change in hues as if it’s a “living” phone.
Another key design factor in vivo Y100 is the metal finish around the body. The curved edges give it a sophisticated modern look but wait till it blends with the rear glass.
The Breeze Green may reflect colors around it and those colors will even spread through the metal finish. With the right colors, the vivo Y100 can produce gold visuals.
For camera enthusiasts, the vivo Y100 features a triple-sensor rear camera setup and an LED flash. These sensors are placed inside a dazzling rectangular camera module that perfectly blends with the rear glass. It’s far neater, compared to gigantic, round modules on other phones.
The main camera is a 50MP shooter, paired with a 2MP bokeh sensor and a flicker sensor. Together, they can capture moments and landscapes in HD.
When it comes to the physical ports and buttons, here are the placements:
| Top | Microphone |
| Bottom | Card tray, USB port, microphone, speaker grille |
| Right | Power key, volume rockers |
| Left | None |
If you’re into immersion, the vivo Y100 features dual speakers. The other speaker is the earpiece at the top of the display itself.
These speakers can do magic during parties. Turn the volume up to 300% and dance to the beat till dawn!
Display
Speaking of display, the vivo Y100 sports a 6.67-inch Ultra Vision AMOLED Dotch Display with 1080 x 2400 resolution. It also supports up to 120Hz refresh rate for smooth scrolling and navigation, and up to 120 FPS mobile gaming, particularly useful on action titles and first-person shooting games.
Despite the device’s price point, the vivo Y100 boasts an in-display fingerprint screen. Unlock your phone with elegance unlike those with side-mounted and rear-mounted scanners!
If you’re outdoorsy, the smartphone got you covered under bright lights with its 1,200 nits of peak brightness. Even the screen itself reduces blue light emission with its Eye Care Display design.
Although there’s a bit of chin at the bottom of the screen, the screen-to-body ratio of the vivo Y100 is 91.90%. Super sexy and sleek for its price point!
Battery
Most phones today have a 5,000mAh battery for all-day performance. But that’s typically traded off with an unimpressive charging rate of 10W or 15W.
vivo Y100 ensures that you can do more and charge less with its 80W FlashCharge technology. In a matter of minutes, you’re back in action using the provided charging brick.
Helping extend battery life throughout the day is the power efficient 6-nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 685 processor. This one is clocked up to 2.8GHz.

However, features mentioned above won’t matter if the smartphone is frail. That’s why vivo designed the device with quality in mind for long-term use.
