Vivo Y300: 80 W charging and a ring light in a $230 phone.

SpecEagle Editorial·Nov 2024·$230·Score 61/100

Y300 sells one number: 80 W. Fifteen minutes on the plug covers a day, which genuinely changes how a budget phone feels. The chip and the filler lens are where the money went instead — fair trade at this price.
