After introducing models like the Vivo Y29 (4G), Vivo Y29 5G, and Vivo Y29s 5G, this new variant aims to deliver premium features at an affordable price, especially in emerging markets.
With a massive 6000mAh battery, IP64 protection, military-grade shock resistance, and the latest MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, the Y29t stands out in the crowded budget smartphone segment.

Durability: Certified with MIL-STD-810H military-grade shock resistance, making it more resistant to drops and accidental damage than most budget smartphones
The Y29t 5G features a 6.74-inch LCD display with the following highlights:
Resolution: HD+ (1600×720 pixels)
Refresh Rate: 90Hz for smooth scrolling and app transitions
Pixel Density: 260 PPI
Brightness: Up to 570 nits, which makes it decent for outdoor visibility
This display configuration makes the phone ideal for video streaming, gaming, and general content consumption in its price bracket.

Charging Speed: 15W wired charging
Connector: USB Type-C
Battery Optimization: Enhanced by FunTouch OS 15 based on Android 15, ensuring smarter power management
