vivo has officially introduced the Y600 in the Chinese market, with its main attraction being a 10,000 mAh battery. According to GSMArena.com, the device is already available for preorder, while open sales are scheduled to begin on October 30. In addition to its large battery capacity, vivo has equipped it with a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display and a MediaTek Dimensity 7300e chipset.
Large battery and 44W charging
The 10,000 mAh battery is the most prominently highlighted feature of the vivo Y600. It supports 44W wired fast charging, providing users with a more practical charging option for such a large battery. The device also supports wired reverse charging, allowing its battery power to be used to charge other devices.
GSMArena.com reported that the vivo Y600 earned a Guinness World Records title related to battery endurance. Based on the cited testing, the phone lasted 32 hours and 37 minutes while being used for continuous livestreaming. This result reflects the specific test conditions and does not directly represent every user's daily battery life.
AMOLED display and Dimensity 7300e
On the front, the vivo Y600 features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The combination of the panel and refresh rate is a key part of its specifications, particularly for interface motion and content that supports high refresh rates.
The device is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7300e chipset. For photography, vivo has included a 50-megapixel main rear sensor. Meanwhile, the front-facing selfie camera has a resolution of 8 megapixels.
Additional features and color options
The vivo Y600 is equipped with an under-display fingerprint scanner. The phone also offers NFC support and carries an IP68 rating. These three features complement its core specifications, which focus on battery life, display, and performance.
The device is available in three color options: Diamond Gold, Obsidian Black, and Sapphire Blue. According to GSMArena.com's assessment based on its design and specifications, the Y600 is essentially a rebranded version of the vivo S2 FE or V80 Lite for the Chinese market. The statement regarding the relationship between these models is the publication's conclusion.
