Display
The Lava Yuva Smart 2 sports a large 6.75-inch HD+ IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels and a smooth 90Hz refresh rate.

The phone features a modern glass back design—a rare feature in budget smartphones—available in Crystal Blue and Crystal Gold colors, offering a premium feel along with durability. It measures 165 x 76.1 x 8.7 mm and weighs around 202 grams, striking a balance between screen size and ergonomics.
