The name of the Vivo brand could not be more adjusted to the reality of the company. And it is that after launching the Vivo S15 and S15 Pro last week, also accompanied by the Vivo Y75 4G, the Chinese company formalized the Vivo Y72t. This now appears as a variant of the Vivo Y72 5G which was launched last year.
This device is clearly focused on cheaper range without giving up 5G, so it mounts components that are compatible with it, such as the Mediatek Dimensity 700 as the main chip. Although it has other outstanding features with reference to screen, cameras and battery which we are reviewing right now in this article.

Vivo Y72 (left) and Vivo Y72t (right) design.
Looking at the design of this device, we do not see many changes in appearance compared to the standard model, beyond the obvious change of the camera module by incorporating one less sensor. It follows the aesthetic patterns of the most economical range with a front that, despite being the main character of the screen, reveals slightly more pronounced bevels than in the higher ranges.
There are no on-screen surprises either., mounting a 6.58-inch LCD panel which, despite being at 60 Hz and integrating this technology inferior to OLED, allows it to have FullHD + resolution. All this in a body that altogether weighs about 200 gramsit is therefore not a light mobile either.
In terms of performance, we can’t expect too much fanfare either with a Low-end Mediatek chip. Although seeing devices like the Realme 8 5G from last year, we can see that it is not a bad processor for what is generally required of these terminals. We cannot ignore that we are talking about a device that, converting it to dollars, is worth around 200 dollars and to 5G.
The fact of not being able to expand the memory with a microSD card stands out. However, it wins with a 6,000 mAh battery.
What is striking is his memory configuration 8+128 and 8+256 GB. And not because of the combination they make, but because unable to expand storage via microSD cards. However, everything indicates that with 256 GB, it could be more than enough for a majority of the public. Although it is always striking when talking about a mobile of this range, just as there are no NFC.
We meet one more pleasant surprise in battery with 6,000 mAh which, at least on paper, suggest that this device will have a great autonomy. Of course, “fast charging” is in quotes because it’s not really something that combines with this ability, since it has a maximum output of 18W.
There is little to emphasize in the cameras with an 8-megapixel front and 50-megapixel rear accompanied by a 2-megapixel macro lens. Other interesting details can be found in the slicing that was made for the softwaresince we see a layer of customization like OriginOS 1.0 which is still based on Android 11, despite the fact that Android 12 already debuted in all ranges a long time ago and Android 13 is just around the corner .
Vivo Y72t versions and prices
As we have already seen, the new Vivo Y72t is available in two memory configurations, so it has different prices. Additionally, you can choose three colours. At the moment it is only available in China and there is no data on its possible arrival in other markets.
