It fits the same connector and slot as the factory unit. Capacity figures come from our product data, not manufacturer marketing specs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eY12 and Y20 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and charge IC handshake. The 95.64 × 64.60 × 4.20mm cell drops into any of these variants without modification to the charging path or BMS communication.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through the Y12's charge IC at both standard and fast-charge protocols. The BMS accepted the handshake on the first cycle, held cutoff at 4.35V charge termination, and tripped low-voltage protection correctly at the cell floor without false lockout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this cell, disable fast charging for the first complete discharge-charge cycle. The Y12's fuel gauge IC is calibrated to the old cell's discharge curve. Running one slow cycle first lets the coulomb counter map the new cell before high-current charging is applied to an uncalibrated state-of-charge model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the Y12 after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens because the fuel gauge IC still holds the discharge curve of the degraded original cell. When the new cell's actual voltage under modem or display load drops briefly below the old curve's predicted floor, the OS triggers an emergency shutdown — even though real charge remains. The fix is one full uninterrupted discharge to auto-off, followed by a full charge with fast charging disabled. After that cycle, the coulomb counter rebuilds its model against the new cell and the shutdowns stop. If they continue past two cycles, check that the battery connector is fully seated — a partial connection causes voltage sag spikes that also trip the protection circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eUSB-PD fast charge not activating on the first cycle after replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eOn first insertion, the charge IC defaults to a trickle or standard CC\/CV profile while it verifies the new cell's impedance signature. Some Y12 and Y20 units will show fast charge as inactive in the notification bar for the entire first charge. This is expected behaviour — the IC is not faulted. Complete the first charge at standard speed, then unplug and replug with a compatible fast charger on the second cycle. Fast charge protocols should activate normally from that point; if they do not, verify the cable supports the required current rating for Vivo's charge spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43391890456666,"sku":"BWCS-BKY120SL-1","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43391890489434,"sku":"BWCS-BKY120SL-2","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43391890522202,"sku":"BWCS-BKY120SL-3","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-BKY120SL-1.webp?v=1779142540","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/vivo-y12-replacement-battery-387v-4900mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
