Budget shoppers looking at entry-level Android phones will find the vivo Y01 sticks to the basics. The Mediatek Helio P35 chipset pairs with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage, enough for calls, messaging, and light browsing, but not much multitasking headroom. A 6.51-inch IPS LCD display at 720 x 1600 resolution runs the show, and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor handles unlocking. vivo Y01 price in Malaysia starts from RM359.

The single rear camera comes in either an 8MP or 13MP configuration depending on the unit, both with autofocus, while a 5MP front camera covers selfies and video calls. There's no NFC here, and charging goes through microUSB rather than USB-C, which feels dated even at this price point.

What stands out is the 5000 mAh battery, generous for a phone in this class and likely to stretch through a full day of light use. It comes in Sapphire Blue and Elegant Black, running Android 11 Go edition on top of Funtouch 11.1.
