MSP SCORE
Pros
As much as I would like to list at least one good thing about the device, I can't. The Vivo Y81 does not offer anything better than its competitors. Sorry Vivo; you need to work harder to make better smartphones, and not just spend on marketing.
Cons
The Vivo Y81's display has a lower resolution. Due to it, the display sharpness is less than other smartphones in the price range. The device also lacks behind in imaging hardware. Its front-facing camera resolution is just 5MP, which is comparatively less than other similarly priced smartphones. As for the rear camera, the Y81, in spite of costing Rs. 11,999, doesn't offer a dual-camera setup. Lastly, it has a 3260mAh battery, which is less as compared to other smartphones in the price range.
