Detailed Product Description

Design & Build: Durable, Stylish, Practical

With a robust IP64 rating and MIL-STD certification, the Vivo Y29 4G is built to endure. It weighs a manageable 204g and measures 165.7 x 76.3 x 8.2 mm—perfectly balancing size and comfort. The blend of a glass front, plastic back, and durable frame enhances grip and adds a touch of elegance.

Display Experience: Smooth Yet Modest

Immerse yourself in vibrant visuals on the expansive 6.68-inch screen, complete with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1,000 nits peak brightness (HBM)—ideal for indoor and outdoor use. While the 720 x 1608 resolution (~264 ppi density) may underwhelm pixel purists, Schott Glass screen protection ensures long-lasting clarity and durability.

Performance & Software: Built to Multitask

Powered by the 6nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 685 chipset and running on the latest Android 15 with Funtouch OS 15, the Vivo Y29 guarantees fluid navigation and enhanced efficiency. Choose from multiple configurations—128GB 6GB RAM, 128GB 8GB RAM, or 256GB 8GB RAM—to suit your storage and multitasking needs.

Camera System: Share-Ready Clarity

Elevate your content game with the reliable 50MP + 2MP dual rear camera setup, which delivers crisp photos and smooth 1080p video at 30fps. On the front, an 8MP selfie camera ensures your portraits stay bright, clear, and social-media-ready.

Connectivity & Integration: Seamless Smart Living

While this is a 4G smartphone, it’s fully equipped for connected living. Stay in sync with Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, GPS, an infrared port, and USB Type-C 2.0 (OTG). Whether pairing with a Smart TV, soundbar, earbuds, or smartwatch, the Y29 is a reliable digital companion.

Battery Life: Exceptional Endurance

The key selling point is its monstrous 6,500mAh battery, built to power you through up to three days of typical use. Thanks to 44W fast charging, you can go from 0 to 50% in just 41 minutes, and reach 100% in 92 minutes. The added bonus of reverse wired charging turns your Vivo Y29 into a dependable power bank.
