The Vivo Y52 5G is a budget phone that doesn’t do anything fancy or out of the ordinary. It offers a solid smartphone experience for a low fee, with nothing to note in the way of bells and whistles. Perhaps its most notable attribute is its tidy design, though even that doesn’t really stand out from rival efforts like the Realme 8 5G and the Redmi Note 10 5G. In fact, it’s sorely lacking compared to those phones when it comes to its display, which is stuck with LCD panel technology and a modest 60Hz refresh rate. As a canvas for the usual content it’s perfectly decent, but we’ve come to expect the option of something a little smoother. The Vivo Y52 5G is yet another competent low-cost smartphone with a neat design, excellent stamina, and 5G connectivity. However, it wholly fails to stand out from a very samey crowd, and even falls behind in a couple of key areas. You’re better off with the Poco X3 NFC if 5G isn’t a concern, or the Realme 8 5G if it is.

85% Vivo Y52 5G – at $379 everything and so much more (review)
Source: Gadgetguy English
I like it – good job, vivo. I joked earlier that you could get three of these for an iPhone 13 mini, and it is time that readers realised that phones have a 3-year life (more because of software update limitations), and after that, even the iPhone 13 mini won’t be worth much. While I use a flagship phone, plenty at even half the price meet my needs – a good camera, battery life, and strong signal reception. So for $379, this exceeds all expectations. Add a 2-year warranty and good local support, and it’s a winner.

80% Ausdroid Reviews: VIVO Y52 5G – 5G on a budget
Source: Ausdroid English
My conclusion after using the VIVO Y52 5G is that whilst they have made some necessary changes to the Funtouch OS and have a device with a great display and aesthetics, there are some drawbacks that I feel are holding the device back. I feel that the VIVO is trying to be a high end device on a budget but sadly it just feels low end. The cameras whilst ok, do have some drawbacks relating to the quality of the pictures which can make trying to get that insta-famous shot quite hard. The bottom speaker lacks any depth or clarity, the fingerprint sensor is inconsistent in its performance, and I found the whole experience a little disappointing. Would I recommend the VIVO Y52 if you’re after a 5G enabled device without the hefty price tag, to a degree potentially. However, if your looking for extra refinement with the cameras, speakers and of course are willing to shell out a bit more, then I would suggest looking to other alternatives.

Vivo Y52 Review, Pros and Cons
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
The Vivo Y52 5G smartphone is a low-budget phone as it lacked many outstanding features. It might be a good choice if you are looking for a mid-range 5G phone with decent battery life. But Vivo is one of the leading brands and will sell a few thousand units, but there’s a big chance the company will launch this phone once again with renewed specs. If you are looking for an alternative option you can choose the Samsung Galaxy F52 smartphone which will bring better specs for the same price.

ARM Mali-G57 MP2: Integrated mid range graphics card with 2 clusters. Based on the Valhall architecture.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


Dimensity 700: The Dimensity 700 is a fast mid-range SoC with an integrated 5G modem. It includes two fast ARM Cortex-A76 cores at up to 2.2 GHz and six power efficient Cortex-A55 cores at up to 2 GHz. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


6.58":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


72.88%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
