Vivo Y19s Pro

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The Y19s Pro is a battery specialist: 6000mAh in an 8.1mm-thin body, which is an unusually good size-to-capacity ratio, and with the 90Hz screen the endurance stretches to two days for typical users. The 50MP main camera with f/1.8 is a dependable daylight shooter, and 6GB/128GB is a solid middle-class spec. The honest caveats: the 720p panel on 6.68 inches is about 264 PPI, so text is soft; the 5MP front camera is the weakest link; and the 0.08MP auxiliary sensor is decorative. For the money, you are buying battery first, with the display and selfie as the compromises. The Honor X5c Plus is 5,000 PKR cheaper, and the two phones trade blows. The Y19s Pro leads with its 6000mAh battery (14% more than the Honor's 5260mAh) and 6GB of RAM against 4GB. The Honor answers with a Helio G81 chip that is faster than the Y19s Pro's Unisoc Tiger T612, an identical 50MP main camera, and 128GB of storage (a draw with the Vivo). Both use 90Hz 720p-class panels, though the Honor's TFT LCD and the Vivo's 1000-nit HBM display are roughly comparable in practice. Choose the Y19s Pro for endurance and RAM; choose the X5c Plus if you want a faster chip and a lower price. Verify the Y19s Pro IMEI with PTA's DIRBS — large-battery Vivo units are common grey imports.
