Design

Everything in the vision of the Wiko Y82 speaks of a basic level smartphone. If you expect a modern design solution and a vision for the future, don't do it. It is superfluous. This device is created on the principle - well known and tested. Its appearance is similar to many other devices on the market. The case is made entirely of quality polycarbonate and has a slightly grooved texture. This speaks well and implies a stronger grip and a lower risk of leakage.
The front of the Wiko Y82 has noticeably large bezels around the screen. The rounded edges complement the positive assessment of ergonomics. The front camera, as is traditional for most budget devices, is positioned at the top of the screen. The back in turn is in the upper left corner.
The smartphone is available in several colors - black, navy blue and light blue. All three look stylish. On the back panel you will find the fingerprint scanner. It works quickly and without a moment's delay you will have access to the functions of the phone.
