Who is this for?

The Vivo Y17s is best for students, light users, or anyone who just wants a phone that does the basics well enough—think messaging, browsing, and social media. It’s not trying to compete with powerhouses like the Pixel or Galaxy S series, but for those after a straightforward and reliable device, it gets the job done without bells and whistles. If you want a bigger screen and no-nonsense interface, this model ticks the boxes, especially if you find flagship specs (and prices) a bit OTT. Just keep in mind: it's not for gaming marathons or heavy multitasking.

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
Large, easy-to-read screen for streaming, browsing, and social media.	Display is HD+ only, not Full HD—so crispness is not top-tier.
Straightforward Android interface with recent OS version.	No 5G support.
Headphone jack included—still handy for wired headphones.	Performance is basic, not built for demanding apps or games.
Main camera is reliable for casual photos.	No NFC or advanced camera extras like optical zoom or stabilisation.
