The new vivo Y36 promises a smooth and seamless casual experience for all its users-including gamers-at a wallet-friendly price.

GAMING ON THE vivo Y36: IS IT ALL IT'S CRACKED UP TO BE?

True enough, in a recent review we did, the vivo Y36 was able to handle some of today's most popular games without much hiccup. Here are some of the reasons why the vivo Y36 not only looks great but plays great too.

The Snapdragon 680 is a well-balanced processor

Beating at the heart of the vivo Y36 is a 6nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor with an Adreno 610 GPU. While it is not the newest nor most powerful chipset out there, it is still very efficient and has 8GB of RAM to help it along.

It has no problem running popular games such as Mobile Legends, Call of Duty Mobile, and Pokemon Unite at smooth and steady frame rates without the need for the user to sacrifice too much in terms of graphics. Even big team clashes did not slow down the vivo Y36 too much. More heavily-demanding games such as NBA 2K and Asphalt 9 are also decently playable as long as graphics settings are turned down.

Sure, casual gamers will have a little less eye candy to look at. But considering that the tradeoff is that it does not get too hot and it has a longer battery life, we would say that it is worth it as it ultimately means a more comfortable gaming experience for hours on end-this the vivo Y36 capably delivers.
