Smooth Display with Modern Design

Both the Vivo Y50 5G and Y50m 5G feature a 6.74-inch LCD with HD+ resolution (1600 x 720 pixels), 90Hz refresh rate, and a 20:9 aspect ratio. The screen is waterdrop notch style compliant, which is trendy-looking even if it is in the budget segment. There is an embedded fingerprint sensor on the side for fast and secure unlocking, while both phones are preinstalled with Android and Vivo’s OriginOS 5 interface.

Fueled by Dimensity 6300 and Big RAM Options

Internally, both phones are powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset, which is said to provide reliable 5G performance and optimized processing. They come with up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB of built-in storage space. UFS 2.2 storage is used in the majority of models, but the base 6GB+128GB model of the Y50m comes with eMMC 5.1. This provides buyers with a broad choice range depending on the performance requirement and budget.

6000mAh Battery with 44W Fast Charging

Another significant aspect is the ginormous 6000mAh battery on both of these devices that enables it to last for two days for regular use. Vivo has also provided support for 44W fast charging, which charges the device quickly when needed. Reverse charging is also supported, and both of these devices can be used as power banks for other devices in emergencies.

Basic Camera Configuration for Everyday Use

Camera-wise, both share one 13MP rear camera, which will do for everyday photography and scanning of documents. On the front, there’s also a 5MP front camera for selfies and video calls. Not photography-centric, the configuration will be good enough for the masses.

Basic Connectivity with Extra Features

Both the phones support dual-SIM 5G, Bluetooth 5.4, dual-band Wi-Fi, USB-C, GPS, an IR blaster, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The phone has IP64 certification for water and dust resistance, and the frame is 167.3 x 76.95 x 8.19mm in size and weighs 204 grams, making it sturdy and easy to hold.

Variants, Pricing, and Colors

The Vivo Y50 5G is available in four configurations, beginning at 1,199 Yuan ($165) for 4GB + 128GB and reaching the top-of-the-line 12GB + 256GB offering for 2,299 Yuan ($316). The Y50m 5G begins at 6GB RAM at the same prices. Both offer fashion colors: Platinum White, Sky Blue, and Diamond Black.

Final Verdict

With generous battery, smooth screens, and good connectivity options, Vivo Y50 5G and Y50m 5G are the best budget options. Minor differences in RAM options provide customers options to choose from, but identical design and features on both devices make either one of them a surefire daily companion in the budget 5G category.
