Vivo is back in the entry-level smartphone game with its newest launch, the Vivo Y04s. This affordable handset has just been unveiled in Indonesia, and it brings a lot to the table for a price tag that’s hard to ignore. With a massive 6000mAh battery, a tall 6.74-inch display, dual cameras, and the latest Android 14 experience, the Y04s packs solid value for everyday users.
The phone sports a minimalist yet attractive design, available in Crystal Purple and Jade Green color options. Its rear panel features Vivo’s signature Crystalline Matte finish, which not only adds to its style quotient but also provides a fingerprint-resistant texture. Despite being an ultra-budget device, it gives off a refined look that makes it stand out in its segment.
At the front, the Vivo Y04s features a 6.74-inch LCD display with HD Plus resolution, 90Hz adaptive refresh rate, and up to 570 nits of brightness. This makes the screen perfect for scrolling social media, watching videos, and casual gaming. The screen also supports a 70 percent NTSC color gamut, offering a more colorful and vivid viewing experience than you might expect at this price.
Under the hood, the Y04s runs on an octa-core Unisoc T612 processor paired with 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM. It includes 64GB of internal storage, expandable up to 1TB via a microSD card. This hardware setup may not be for heavy gamers, but it handles basic daily tasks like calls, messaging, video streaming, and light multitasking with ease.
For photography, the phone features a dual rear camera setup that includes a 13-megapixel main sensor and a QVGA secondary sensor for depth-based shots. On the front, there's a 5-megapixel selfie camera tucked into a waterdrop notch. The camera system supports features like Night Mode, Portrait, Panorama, and Time-Lapse, giving users creative options even at this budget level.
One of the biggest highlights is the battery. The Vivo Y04s is equipped with a massive 6000mAh battery that can easily last two full days on moderate use. It supports 15W FlashCharge through a USB Type-C port, which helps it get back up and running quickly. The phone also includes essential connectivity options like 4G, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, and even Galileo and Beidou satellite navigation support.
Running on Funtouch OS 14 based on Android 14, the phone delivers a clean and modern user experience. Features like smart split screen, app cloning, and gesture controls are all part of the package. It also includes a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for quick and secure unlocking.
Priced at just IDR 13,99,000 (approximately ₹7480), the Vivo Y04s redefines what budget smartphones can offer. It is currently available for purchase through Vivo’s official store and major online platforms in Indonesia. While there’s no word yet on an India launch, the Y04s would be a strong contender in the sub-₹8000 market if it arrives.
Vivo is clearly focusing on delivering value through smart design and long battery life, and the Y04s ticks both boxes. It is ideal for students, senior citizens, or anyone looking for a basic yet modern smartphone experience without spending much.
