Display and Design
The Vivo Y22 sports a 6.55-inch Full HD+ LCD panel with a Waterdrop Notch cutout for the front camera. Peak brightness reaches 530 nits, and the screen-to-body ratio of 89.67% means bezels are kept thin for a budget device. The phone weighs 190 grams and carries an IP54 rating, offering splash and dust resistance that is uncommon at this price tier.
Camera Performance
On the back the Vivo Y22 has a dual camera system. The primary sensor is a 50-megapixel shooter with an f/1.8 aperture, designed to let in ample light for daytime and low-light shots. The secondary 2-megapixel bokeh lens assists with portrait-style depth effects at f/2.4. For selfies and video calls, the phone houses an 8-megapixel front camera in the Waterdrop cutout.
Battery and Connectivity
Powering the Vivo Y22 is a large 5000mAh battery backed by 18W fast charging via the USB Type-C port. Connectivity options include Dual-Band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS with Glonass, NFC, OTG support, and an FM Radio. A side-mounted fingerprint sensor handles biometric unlocking quickly and conveniently.
RAM 2.0 Feature
Vivo's RAM 2.0 technology lets the phone borrow up to 2GB of internal storage and use it as virtual RAM. This means the 4GB model can effectively run as a 6GB phone and the 6GB variant can behave like an 8GB device, improving multitasking performance without raising hardware costs.
