Vivo has introduced the Y37+ in China, a budget 5G smartphone that stands out mainly for its large battery. The company says the 6000mAh cell is built to hold up well over time, keeping strong performance for as long as five years.
The phone launched quietly in early March 2026, joining the Y series aimed at users who want solid basics without spending much.
Key Specs and Features
The Vivo Y37+ uses a 6.74-inch LCD screen with HD+ resolution (1600 x 720 pixels). It runs at a smooth 90Hz refresh rate and has a 180Hz touch sampling rate for quicker response. Peak brightness hits 1000 nits, which helps in bright outdoor conditions, and it includes eye comfort settings. The panel covers 70% of the NTSC color range with a 1500:1 contrast ratio.
Inside, a MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset (built on a 6nm process) handles tasks. It has two performance cores at 2.4GHz and six efficiency cores at 2.0GHz, along with a Mali-G57 GPU. The phone comes with 8GB LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage. Vivo adds up to 8GB more virtual RAM using its Memory Fusion tool.
Software comes as OriginOS 5 running on Android 15. This version includes better security and anti-fraud tools.
For photos, the rear has a single 13MP camera with autofocus and an f/2.2 lens. It offers modes like Night, Portrait, Panorama, and Pro, plus up to 10x digital zoom. Video tops out at 1080p. The front camera is 5MP with fixed focus, also recording 1080p.
Battery life gets the spotlight here. The 6000mAh unit supports 44W fast charging and reverse charging through OTG. Vivo highlights its long-term durability.
Other additions include dual Nano-SIM with 5G, NFC, an infrared blaster for controlling devices, a side fingerprint reader, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The phone has SGS-certified drop protection.
