vivo Y35: A premium midranger with 44W FastCharge!

This is a sponsored post by vivo Philippines

The pain of running out of juice!

Everybody knows the anxiety and stress caused when our phones run out of battery especially when we need them most. You could be on an important call, booking your ride home, or simply wanting to play games or stream videos online.

On top of that, if your phone doesn’t charge fast, you’re pretty much tied to the wall socket and if you need to leave, then you’ll still need to charge on the go via a power bank. In the end, there are just too many things to think about and that can all be avoided if only you had a more capable phone.

This is what vivo is offering in the form of the new Y35. It carries a large capacity battery and ‘Quick as a Flash’ charging time. There’s actually more that it offers like a generous 256GB storage, an expanded 8GB RAM, and a stylish design and we’re taking a look at all those in this article.

Power for days

Carrying a 5000mAh battery, the phone could easily last an entire day and even leave enough juice to make it until the following day. Even if your whole day involves working on or using your phone, the vivo Y35 and its power-saving features allow you to put your mind at ease without worrying about looking for the next wall socket.

And if you need to charge the Y35, its 44W fast charging technology tops up the device quickly so you don’t have to wait long to use the device again. In approximately 30 minutes after plugging the phone, you can already get up to 70% of power that should be able to last you the entire day.

This has been a really useful feature for me during those times I only had a short time to charge before I needed to leave.

Capable internals

Its battery and charging speed aren’t all there is to look forward to in this phone. The vivo Y35 is also equipped with capable internals to deliver high performance whether for productivity or even for leisure like gaming.

For one, it carries a large 256GB of storage space. With a size like that, you can fit all your media like photos and videos and even install games that require a good chunk of space in your phone.

As someone who shoots a lot, this is one of the main features that I really like on the Y35 since I no longer have to worry about running out of storage.

vivo is also proud to claim that this phone is the first in the series to have an additional 8GB extended RAM. This means it can borrow virtual RAM to better accommodate resource-intensive apps or games and provide a smooth experience especially when jumping from one app to another.

This came into play when we use the device for producing content online. From taking photos, editing them, to uploading them on different social media platforms, we could easily switch back and forth between multiple apps with ease and no hiccups.

Meanwhile, running the show is a Snapdragon 680 processor that promises uninterrupted performance day in and day out. This level of performance is also thanks to the company’s updated Multi-Turbo 5.5 that uses AI algorithm to ensure a more optimized workflow by efficiently allocating computing power.

This is great for power users at work or mobile gamers as lag should be greatly reduced even during continuous usage. True enough, during those down times that we just want a match or two on Mobile Legends yielded an enjoyable and immersive experience. Heat management and dissipation are also commendable as the phone doesn’t get too hot even after using it continuously.

Smart and professional-grade cameras

For those who like shooting using their phones, the vivo Y35 also packs a set of cameras that should be more than enough for your day-to-day snaps. The rear cameras are headlined by a 50-megapixel lens that boasts a large sensor to effectively capture images better.

Having this kind of sensor makes it great to be used in low light scenarios where details are usually hard to retain. It also minimizes unwanted elements in photos like digital noise and the likes to provide clear and high-definition images.

Adding to the main shooter are your 2-megapixel bokeh camera and another 2-megapixel macro sensor that gather more data and information to produce professional-grade shots. On the flip side, a 16-megapixel selfie camera ensures that your self portraits are always on point and clear no matter how bright or dimly lit your surroundings are.

Trendy design

The vivo Y35 is not only beefed up inside, its overall design has also been given attention to for everyday use. It comes in two colors – Dawn Gold and Agate Black – and both have their own unique characteristics. You can choose to go for a more refined look with the Y35 in Dawn Gold or choose a combination of calm yet dynamic with the Agate Black color.

Flip it around and you’ll see its large 6.58-inch Full HD+ display. This abundance in screen real estate makes it possible to comfortably use the device for work or be easily immersed with visuals and sound when playing games. This also makes it easy to share content with someone else as more than one person can comfortably watch even from a distance.

Additionally, even though the phone packs a large battery, it was still able to make the form factor not look bulky. It even feels nice and surprisingly lightweight so you don’t have to worry about straining your hands even with extended periods of use.

Price and promos

The vivo Y35 has an SRP of PhP 14,999 and the company is even making it easier to get one for yourself. It’s available in installment plans for credit card users (up to 6 – 12 months) and Home Credit members (up to 6, 9, 12, 15, or 18 months).

It’s available for purchase online via Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop, and vivo e-store, as well as offline at vivo concept stores and kiosks nationwide. For those buying online, you can also get a free DITO SIM card and Voguard wireless TWS until limited supplies last.

Final thoughts

The vivo Y35 is one capable smartphone for your everyday use. It builds its specialties on pain points familiar to everyone and addresses them with its 5000mAh battery and 44W FastCharge on top of delivering good performances in other aspects as well.

I also like the fact that it comes with 256GB of space so storage anxiety will no longer be your thing just like how the Y35 solved battery anxiety for its users. The vivo Y35 is a prime example of a device that packs the essentials ensuring a pleasant mobile experience for its users.
