The Vivo Y29 5G is set to debut in India as the successor to the Vivo Y28 5G, which was released earlier this year. Thanks to its listings on Google Play Console and Geekbench, as well as previous reports, we now have a better idea of what this phone will bring to the table. Let’s go into the details.
Google Play Console & Geekbench listings
The Vivo Y29 5G was recently listed on the Google Play Console under the model number V2420. Here are some highlights:
Processor: This chipset is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC, which includes two Cortex A76 cores clocked at 2.2GHz and six Cortex A55 cores clocked at 2GHz, as well as an Arm Mali-G57 MC2 GPU for improved graphics. It’s a significant improvement over the Dimensity 6020 in the Y28 5G.
Memory and storage: The mentioned edition has 8GB of RAM, with options for 4+128GB, 6+128GB, 8+128GB, and 8+256GB expected.
Software: It runs Android 14, most likely with Vivo’s Funtouch OS in India.
Display: The display is likely to be 1608×720 pixels HD+ with 300 PPI resolution, same to the previous model.
While its benchmark scores are marginally lower than competitors such as the Realme C65 5G, we will reserve judgment until real-world testing is completed.
