vivo unveiled the Y78+ last month with the Snapdragon 695 SoC, and today the company followed up with the regular model, powered by the Dimension 7020 chip.

Another notable difference between vivo Y78 and Y78+ is that the former is built around a 6.64″ FullHD+ 120Hz LCD while the latter packs a 6.78″ FullHD+ 120Hz curved AMOLED display with a fingerprint reader underneath for biometric authentication. The vanilla model, on the other hand, features a side-mounted solution.

Also, while both smartphones come with 5,000mAh batteries with 44W wired charging, the vivo Y78 is actually thicker and heavier (190g vs 177g) than the Plus version. It’s also worth mentioning that the The Y78+’s 50MP main camera has OIS, which the Y78’s 50MP unit doesn’t. Regardless, the primary camera on both smartphones is flanked by 2MP depth units, with the selfie camera up front using an 8MP sensor.

The vivo Y78, like the Y78+, runs OriginOS 3 based on Android 13. It also has a USB-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack, and has Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity instead of 5.1.
