Summary of the review

Third-party reviews

What customers like about vivo Y77e (8GB + 256GB)

  • OLED display is a fantastic inclusion for the price range, offering good picture quality.
  • Performance is considered capable for daily tasks and even decent for gaming, handling popular games smoothly on good settings.
  • Large 5,000mAh battery capacity provides long life, often a day and a half with normal usage.
  • Design and build quality (slick rear cover, flat edges) give it a high-end appearance and firm grip.
  • Ample RAM (6GB/8GB) and storage (128GB/256GB) options, which is expandable via a microSD card slot.
  • Includes a 3.5 mm audio jack.
  • Supports 5G connectivity.

What customers don't like about vivo Y77e (8GB + 256GB)

  • Camera performance is a major weakness; photos can be blurry/shaky due to lack of stabilization and reliance on AI processing.
  • Lack of an ultra-wide camera lens, which is a common feature in this price range.
  • Display has a standard 60Hz refresh rate (not 90Hz or 120Hz), which some users feel makes the device obsolete compared to competitors.
  • Only supports 18W fast charging, which is slower than the 33W or 44W options available on comparable phones.
  • The operating system (OriginOS Ocean based on Android 12) may contain bloatware, minor bugs, and the control center design is seen as unoriginal.
  • Potential network configuration issues, such as an inability to auto-detect a stronger Wi-Fi network or handle Wi-Fi passovers well.
  • Performance can slow down over time with multiple apps running in the background, sometimes freezing or becoming unresponsive.

Verdict

The Vivo Y77e (8GB + 256GB) is a mid-range 5G smartphone powered by a 6nm MediaTek Dimensity 810 processor and running Android 12-based OriginOS Ocean. Main characteristics include a 6.58-inch Full HD+ IPS LCD (1080 x 2408 pixels) and a large 5,000 mAh battery. Pros are its 5G connectivity, ample 8GB LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage (expandable via microSD), a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. Cons include a standard 60Hz display refresh rate, relatively slow 18W wired charging, and a basic dual rear camera setup (13MP main + 2MP macro) with no ultrawide lens.
