It seems that budget phones are suffering from the price of RAM. in the case of the Vivo Y05, as we can see, we find ourselves with only 4 GB.
If we are looking for something in the low-cost range, this device could be our target. Among its advantages, we would highlight its IP65-certified body, which provides a high level of protection. In addition, its battery is no less than 6500 mAh, which will give us hours of use. Inside, we have an Octa Core UNISOC T7225 processor, which is actually the classic UNISOC T612 renamed. As a reference, it scores around 250,000 points in Antutu v10, enough to run any common everyday app.
The operating system is Android 16 with the OriginOS 6.0 layer, which will give us good compatibility with applications for quite some time.
