Vivo did a great job with the V5 Plus, but the V5 is certainly the less impressive product in the duo. The recycled design, the low-end chipset, the low-res screen, the mediocre main camera, the average battery life, and the old Funtouch launcher aren't helping the V5's case. And the 20MP selfie camera is just not enough to make up for everything else.

Vivo V5 is a sub 20K smartphone that come in plastic body design. The smartphone still looks premium and offers good performance. The camera quality is good, however could disappoint you a little in low light. The moonlight selfie camera captures good selfies in proper lighting condition; again the low light photography is below average. Battery life is good and the display is also very bright.

Should the Vivo V5 be crowned the new selfie king? Yes. The OPPO F1s and Vivo V5 share a lot of hardware and price tag (Php 12,990), but the V5 edges out the F1s with a slight bump up in RAM and the quality of selfies you can take with the front camera. The question we have to ask though is how long will it remain on the throne? We’ve already heard that Samsung will be releasing its own selfie phone, the C9 Pro, and we doubt that OPPO will take this lying down as well.

Since the V5 is marketed as a camera and music phone, it's only fair to compare it with the F1s. In retrospect, we think the F1s has better camera quality for the main one; whereas the V5 clearly beats the F1s as the new self-proclaimed selfie phone. But other than that, there's nothing really much to say about the rest because of its clunky FunTouch user interface features. The design is alright, the fingerprint sensor is awesome, though, and it's also good enough to play games like Asphalt 8: Airborne.

Coming to the end, the phone wins in the front camera and battery area. Hi-Fi audio is an added advantage. Overall, you can say Vivo V5 is an entry level device with a great selfie camera on board. For its ₹17,980 price, I would suggest you to buy it if you are obsessed with selfies, otherwise, there are other good phones in terms of performance and display quality.

To conclude, the smartphone can be considered as a good bargain at first and the 20-megapixel front-facing camera still tempting deal, but the device fails to give a long-lasting impact. The front camera will disappoint you, performance is satisfactory and battery is good. The device faces a stiff competition from Lenovo Z2 Plus, Oppo F1s and Gionee S6s as each one of them are specced competitively.

The Vivo V5 offers fairly decent build quality, functional performance and acceptable battery life, but its main selling point, the 20MP front camera with Moonlight flash, is a letdown.

As mentioned throughout my review, the Vivo V5 does come with plenty of compromises, at the cost of a 20MP front-facing camera. But it all seems to have paid off, because at the end of the day, it does click some really impressive selfies. It beats the Oppo F1s and the pricier Oppo F1 Plus when it comes to selfies and image quality, but low light imaging is its sore point. The build quality while being rigid and well constructed still falls short of the Oppo, because the V5 is made of plastic. And then there’s that smudge-happy display.

The Vivo V5 is a step up from its predecessor but fails to strike a decisive blow against the competition. The marque feature of this phone is its 20-megapixel front camera, which seems impressive, but isn't actually ground-breaking in any way. The high megapixel count feels unnecessary, unless you plan on printing A4 size posters of your selfies.

The new Vivo V5 is really great in the imaging department.

If you take out the front camera from the equation (for those who’re still not in on the selfie craze), the Vivo V5 is a tad uninspiring smartphone. However, with that marquee feature and good-looking metal body, and the fact that the V5 is available in physical retail stores across the country, unlike a lot of its competition, the company might be on something interesting.

In our brief time with the Vivo V5, we noticed no lags or hiccups, and our general experience was seamless. At this price point, the smartphone offers a good camera, a premium look and feel, and decent specifications. Vivo V5 is set to compete with other selfie-centric smartphones in the market such as the Gionee S6s (Review) and the Oppo F1s (Review). Both fall within the same price bracket at Rs. 17,999 and Rs. 17,990 respectively. While the Gionee S6s does have a front flash, the Oppo F1s does not. On paper, the Vivo V5 looks impressive and ready to give them both some tough competition. Pre-orders for the Vivo V5 begin on November 16 and will go on till November 25, after which the device will be available for sale.

It's easy to see the vivo V5 Plus as an iPhone-copying one-trick pony, an expensive one at that. The thing is, it's pretty great at that one trick, and reasonably good at them other tricks.

All-in-all the Vivo V5 Plus is a great all-round package that will appeal to those who are serious about their selfies. It packs in the right balance of power, performance, battery life and adds a pretty good camera to the mix, making it a much better offering in comparison to the Asus Zenfone 3 (5.5-inch). It still however, falls short of the OnePlus 3T in some areas like raw power and the primary camera. The Huawei Honor 8 is also pretty good choice, if you are looking for a dual camera set up on the back, but it’s not so impressive in the selfie department. Another competitor in this segment is the Oppo F1 Plus. When it launched in April last year, it was indeed the king of selfie smartphones. But with so many new competitors offering better hardware (including sibling Vivo), the phone has now gotten a bit dated with its MediaTek Helio P10.

I’ll be honest. I came into reviewing this phone with 0 expectations. All my past experience with “selfie” focused smartphones have been pretty underwhelming. The Vivo V5 Plus on the other hand is actually quite a nice experience overall. Sure, it is not a OnePlus 3 or 3T which can also be bought at a very similar price point and I would recommend those two phones over this any day to anyone except for those who love to take selfies.

Chinese smartphone makers have set a precedent for delivering products with solid specifications at highly affordable prices, which is exactly what Vivo has been doing for a while now. The V5 Plus is a bold move from the company because it dares to break this tradition.

So the Vivo V5 Plus, hands down, is a brilliant selfie camera phone. It brings in that elusive BOKEH effects via a dedicated lens while the main front facing lens is co-engineered with Sony and that shows off in the output. If we were to nitpick, it would be the over softening of the images shot in the dark with that moonlight LED option but it’s a really tough condition for any camera to shoot. The primary camera is bit of a letdown when compared to the supremely fantastic front camera. If only Vivo had included OIS or EIS, low light performance and videos would’ve been much better but in most of the other conditions and in keeping the software free of gimmicks, Vivo wins kudos in our books. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with the V5 Plus and hope you did too as you eyeballing the samples we have taken for you.

Overall we are pretty satisfied with the performance of the phone. However, Vivo could have gone for a distinctive design rather than been completely inspired by iPhone. If we talk about pricing, it's on a higher side, as you can get a smartphone from other brands with more or less same specifications at a much lower price. Just to charge insanely for adding up an extra camera in front is not justified. However, those of who are looking to add charm in their life by flaunting good quality selfies, we would recommend that they can go and buy Vivo V5 Plus smartphone bearing Dual front camera without having a second thought.

I would say the Vivo V5 Plus phone is good for who are sick of the iPhone’s boring hardware (looking at the battery), and the blandness of Android devices. Vivo V5 Plus walks a thin line between both, but the problem is that it is little pricey at Rs 27,980. Again considering the Snapdragon 625, processor, people might consider sticking with OnePlus 3 or the Oneplus 3T, as an option, given they are both great devices.

However, in contrast, the rear camera isn't nearly as good as the front camera, so if you really take a lot of selfies, this is the only smartphone you need for now.

Vivo V5s may not be a good upgrade, in my opinion, it is just 4 months Vivo V5 has launched and if you have bought it, keeping it is advisable. On the flipside, this could be one of the best selfie phones under ₹20,000 price.

Vivo V7+
The Vivo V7+ is the successor to the company's V5 Plus flagship phone. It is also designed for selfie enthusiasts. Not only does it boast of the highest resolution front camera on a smartphone it also has a wide, 18:9 aspect ratio display with narrow bezels. This is a feature that is now finding the top spot on consumer wish lists. Thanks to the narrow bezels and wide aspect ratio, the Vivo V7+ has a 6-inch display in the dimensions of a 5.5-inch device, which Vivo calls FullView display. It is excellent for watching videos, playing games as well as for social media. However, the resolution is 1440 x 720 pixels, which gives a pixel density of just 269 ppi (pixels per inch). In comparison, the 5.5-full HD display on the Redmi Note 4 has a pixel density of 401 ppi. This means that in a head-to-head comparison, the V7+ display is not as sharp. Vivo phones normally prioritize selfie cameras over the rear shooter. The front camera is the other highlight of the V7+. It has a 24 MP wide-angle camera with f/2.0 aperture and front LED flash. It is easily one of the best selfie cameras seen on a smartphone. The photos are bright with good details and natural colors. Even in low light, the camera picks up enough light to take good photos without using the front flash. The rear 16MP camera has an aperture of f/2.0 also and delivers detailed photos with rich color. Vivo has added a Live Photo option, quite like the iPhone: it records a few seconds of video with the image and user can play it with a 'tap and hold'. This makes for some very interesting photos. However, the video recording is restricted to Full HD resolution. From the mid-tier Snapdragon 625 processor of its predecessor, the new phone has a Snapdragon 450 now. The shift from a Snapdragon 600-series to a 400-series processor is shocking at first, but it is not a downgrade. The new Snapdragon 450 is pretty much based on the Snapdragon 625. Both have the same 14 nm technology for longer battery life and a newer Adreno 506 GPU for better gaming performance. Multitasking is handled by the 4 GB memory, and users get an internal storage of 64 GB for apps, pictures, and more. Some of the other highlight features on the Vivo V7+ include the slick unibody design (7.7 mm slim, 160 g weight), fast and an accurate fingerprint scanner, a dedicated microSD slot for storage expansion along with loud and clear audio output. Vivo continues to give its devices a built-in Hi-Fi chip for excellent audio quality with lossless music files. With a slightly bigger body than its predecessor, the V7+ has a somewhat larger battery at 3,225 mAh over the previous 3,160 mAh. As a whole, the V7+ is a good buy for a typical mid-range user. However, the competition in this price range is stiff and there are other manufacturers that can offer more for the asking price. Hands-on article by Jagadisa RajarathnamSpecifications

Thus we find a few things to like about the vivo V7+, but nothing compelling. The only thing worth taking out your wallet for is... 24-megapixel selfies. The final question, then: does the narcissist in you need such resolving power?

The V7+ has been carefully put together with a specific audience in mind and it simply excels in all its highlight features - screen, performance, camera, even design. If you live in a market where vivo sells, there is not a single reason why you shouldn't give it a serious consideration.

The lower resolution of the display and the overall performance makes Vivo V7 Plus a pricey option. But if you really want better selfies and don’t mind the lower resolution display, Vivo V7 + is not a bad option on the list. Otherwise, the market has plenty of ‘selfie-focused’ options in the market, including from vivo itself.

The Vivo V7 Plus comes with an RRP (recommended retail price) of RM1499 in Malaysia. It may be somewhat more expensive than other similar smartphones, but the 24MP camera selfie image quality is still slightly clearer than the rest on the market. However, in contrast, the rear camera isn't nearly as good as the front camera. The FullView display is great but still required more optimization from third-party apps. Performance is slightly lower than the standard for the price, but for casual mobile gamers it is still acceptable.

The V7+ certainly created a buzz during its announcement and release last month. And that buzz is somewhat warranted as the phone does provide its users with a big screen, great battery life, respectable speakers, and useful features. Although it would’ve been nice if Vivo upped the screen quality as having such low ppi on a screen this big has consequences such as loss of quality and pixelation. The front camera, though great at taking selfies, also has an annoying problem with strong light sources and performs poorly in low-light situations.

Vivo V7 plus is a top notch device with all the premium features in the very affordable price range. Personally, I have liked this device very much because it is fulfilling all the requirements of a normal user in very economical price. It has a 24MP selfie camera which is perfect for camera lovers and the body shape of this smartphone is very slim and sleek. Those customers who don’t want to spend a big amount of money yet they want a good phone, should consider Vivo V7 plus before buying another device.

While we personally believe that smartphones need to be a complete package, Vivo is still pursuing its motto “camera and music” quite single mindedly. The new Vivo V7+ has a good front facing camera and great audio quality, but considering its price, the company could have done a much better job with the performance and battery life.

I was surprised to find myself warming to the Vivo V7 Plus. I normally shun heavily-themed Android devices with low-end chips. However, Vivo’s customisations are useful and add value. The Snapdragon 450, a yet untested platform, certainly proved more capable than I expected.

Selfie phones seem to be in a hurry to come in a flurry. So much so that certain phone makers have shifted their focus heavily on the front cameras of their phones, with every iteration they make. Leading the pack, at least in India, is Vivo, and the V7 Plus is their latest offering, succeeding last year’s V5 Plus (don’t ask us where did the 6 Plus go! We don’t know it either). We gave you our first impressions in the first cut article a while ago, and we were sweetly surprised on how smooth it was in our initial usage – ah and that front camera of course. And now, having done a detailed review, we answer many of the questions we got all this while – does the snappy performance hold up? Is the build quality strong enough? How is the selfie camera compared to other selfie-centric phones? How is the gaming experience? etc. Read on for the answers in this detailed Vivo V7+ Review.

Overall, the Vivo V7+ is decent smartphone with a large FullView 18:9 display in a compact body and a pretty good selfie camera. The phone has dedicated SIM and microSD card slots, which is a good move. Snapdragon 450 is enough to power the phone with a HD+ screen, but the company should have gone for a better chip like the Snapdragon 625 and a Full HD+ screen to justify the price tag of Rs. 21,990.

Vivo is introducing some notable new features with its smartphones and the V7+ is just the first of many such models to come. The shift to the new 18:9 aspect display is welcome, and we like the fact that the company has finally moved to Android Nougat. The front camera is does a good job in most lighting conditions. However, it still feels quite expensive considering it’s plastic body, low-resolution screen and budget-class processor.

Vivo V7
The Vivo V7 is essentially a slightly smaller Vivo V7+ with a couple of differences. It has a 5.7-inch (V7+: 5.99 inch) display that pushes an HD 720p resolution in an 18:9 display aspect ratio. Under the hood, it gets the same Snapdragon 450 octa-core processor that is mated to 4 GB of RAM. Storage wise, the V7 has a smaller 32 GB capacity, which is also expandable via microSD slot by up to 256 GB. If a person is looking for an affordable and compact alternative, here comes the Vivo V7, which comes with a lower price tag. The V7 feels much lighter in the hands and it still retains a full metal unibody exterior with the same twin stripe antenna band design. With a width of 72.8 mm, Vivo manages to cram a 5.7-inch screen onto a 5.2-inch smartphone body. It is handier as well, which makes the device easier to use for people with smaller hands one-handed. No need to fight with the phone when it comes to one-handed use. There are two color options which are Crown Gold and Matte Black. Despite being a more affordable device, Vivo retains the same camera setup on the V7. It has a 16 MP f/2.0 main camera while the front features a 24 MP f/2.0 shooter that comes with its own selfie softlight. Images taken are good enough for the price, though the phone falters a bit with low-light shots. Selfies are clear and crisp, which is not surprising given the focus of Vivo’s phones on delivering good selfies. The V7 has an 18:9 aspect ratio display allowing the phone to have a slightly bigger panel compared to other phones with the same overall size. The side bezels are as thick as the V7+, and there is still a noticeable top and bottom bezel, though there are quite thinner than phones that do not have the unique aspect ratio. Because of the HD+ resolution, the pixel density is quite low compared to its competitors. On the bright side, the display itself looks good, with vibrant colors thanks to its IPS panel. The Vivo V7 is powered by a 3,000 mAh battery, which is slightly smaller than the V7+’s 3,220 mAh capacity. Out of the box, it runs on Android 7.1 with an iOS-inspired Funtouch OS 3.2. It is not difficult to see the inspiration for the UI, especially when it comes to the interface and how a user interacts with it (swiping up from the bottom shows the setting for the phone), but users can get used to it over time. The battery life for the V7 is pretty good. The Snapdragon 450 is not a power-hungry chipset, and the phone is capable of running for the entire day with moderate use with a single charge. No fast charging is supported here though, so users might want to make sure the phone is charged before heading out. However, the smaller screen resolution and processor may help it conserve more power. The V7 is a slightly cheaper version of the already famous V7. In many ways, it competes with its own sibling.

At around Rs 17,000, the V7 is a very poor choice of phone. Virtually every phone that you can buy in the same price range is cheaper, significantly more powerful and offers a higher resolution display. Better options include the Mi A1, the Moto G5s Plus and the Huawei 7x. Even the Redmi Note 4 for Rs 12,999 is a more powerful option with a comparable rear camera.

Vivo V7 has a lot to offer for the price tag of Rs 18,999. It comes with a tall display, great cameras with bokeh mode, likable design, and more importantly a battery that lasts for a day. However, the lack of dual back cameras, a Full HD display and fast charging technology might disappoint some as the features have become common in mid-range smartphones these days. For those looking for alternatives can go for Oppo F5, Honor 9i, and Moto X4 smartphones are worthy options to consider under Rs 20,000.

There were both good and bad aspects of Vivo V7. If you are looking for a smartphone that has good cameras, smooth performance and a lasting battery, Vivo V7 may be the right choice for you. But at a price of Rs 18,990, we expected a more original design and a better display too. Also, we don't like such heavy customizations in the phone's software, but that is very subjective, so we won't count it as a downside or an upside.

In our experience with the Vivo V7, we found that the front camera does a good job of taking selfies, and the design is familiar but still more manageable compared to the V7+. Battery life is also good, despite the slight reduction in capacity. On the other hand, the competition is pretty fierce, and so a plastic body and HD screen don't really cut it anymore. Vivo’s interface is also starting to feel dated , and it's time the company overhauled it and also made it lighter.

The V7 is a pretty good mid-range smartphone that packs competitive specs like the 5.7-inch FullView display, Snapdragon 450 chipset, 4GB RAM, and 24MP camera.

Much like how the rakyat have let their voices be heard, vivo has certainly taken note of the customers' dissatisfaction on the V7. We think the V9 is an improvement, most particularly for its AI Face Beauty, AI HDR, respectable performance from the battery and processor and other said-features in this reviews. Moreover, if you got used to the sliding navigation gestures from the settings, this is probably the closest Android phone with an 'iPhone X' experience.

The Vivo V9 is currently only available in India for Rs. 23,990 (~$360). Despite the iPhone’s influence, it’s a very good midrange smartphone with some great qualities, but it’s also tough to recommend to U.S. buyers. Comparable alternatives like the Honor 7X are not only cheaper, but also sold in the U.S. If you’re able to easily get your hands on a Vivo V9, it isn’t a bad choice. Vivo has more exciting smartphone releases coming up for everyone else.

Coming to the verdict, is the Vivo V9 is worth it for all that what it offers? To answer that, what makes Vivo V9 at least better in the segment are the FullScreen notched display and glass design, lightweight, mind-boggling selfies, a dual camera that’s capable of taking portraits, and the Android Oreo out-of-the-box.

If you are looking for a much powerful device and don’t really require that great a front camera, then you can look at the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro or the Redmi Note 5.

I hope it’s clear why I earlier mentioned the V9 fails to yield that X factor the company was hoping it would. That being said, the two features Vivo is primarily boasting about — the screen and the selfie camera do work as advertised. But the rest, unfortunately, falters. The rear camera is inconsistent, the software is in a desperate need of an overhaul, the performance is middling… you get the idea. At Rs 22,999, I certainly can not recommend the Vivo V9 to everyone but if you’re someone who strictly prioritizes selfies and a unique design, you can consider it. Although I would suggest taking a look at Motorola’s Moto X4 or even the Xiaomi Redmi 5 Pro, both of which are significantly more well-balanced phones.

Vivo V9 cannot compete with the likes of Samsung Galaxy S9 and iPhone X, and no one expected it to. At Rs 22,990, Vivo V9 targets the masses. The handset should appeal to anyone who is looking for a well-rounded smartphone that is equipped to handle anything. Vivo V9 competes with the Oppo F7, Moto X4, and Honor 8 Pro.

Frankly, the Vivo V9 is a hard smartphone to judge. It lives up the selfie promise, has an impressive display and the 19:9 aspect ratio also is extremely handy. AI is more of a buzzword as the real impact of it can hardly be noticed. Priced at Rs 22,999, it’s not a budget smartphone. What lets it down is the mid-range specs and the software experience. With a flagship device you expect top-notch specifications which the Vivo V9 lacks. Yet, it’s a smartphone that delivers performance which most users will find it more than acceptable. It’s biggest competitor will be the recently launched Oppo F7 as that too is a selfie centric device. In the battle of selfies, Vivo might have a winner on its hands. Overall as a smartphone one can’t help but feel that the V9 could’ve been a much better device.

The Vivo V9, at Rs 22,990, is all about the style. That's not to say that it's lacking on substance. The V9 looks good, has a neat display, metes out good performance and has capable camera credentials. Having said that, there's still room for improvement here. It could have done with a sturdier build. It could have done with some more power under the hood. And it could have done with a bigger battery while at it.

Vivo V9 is a really good handset that looks great, is light weight, performance is impressive and battery life is decent enough. Camera quality is excellent and you get a separate micro SD card slot. A very good option to consider if you are looking for a Notch Style smartphone.

With the V9, Vivo has managed to ship the first Android phone with a notch in India - for whatever that's worth. It has decent hardware, and the software has lots of customisations. The display helps it stand out from the rest, and those wanting to show off a phone with a notch now have this option at a price that's certainly a lot more affordable than the iPhone X.

So it's finally here, the vivo V9 was unveiled and believe it or not, it's actually Malaysia's first device with a 19:9 screen-to-body aspect ratio to be sold commercially for RM1399. As premium as it looks, this device is actually a mid-range tier with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 626, 4GB + 64GB memory capacity, a 6.3-inch display in Full HD+ resolution, 3260mAh battery, a dual rear camera (16MP + 5MP), a mega 24MP front camera, and multiple A.I. features pre-installed inside. Here's our first impression of the phone in the hands-on video below.

As far as the design is concerned, it definitely gets attention, the FullView display looks amazing and its glass body sets it apart from the competition. Android Oreo ensures that it has all the latest updates and patches. The camera took decent shots, the AI Bokeh mode enables you to add the blur effect in the background while the selfies turn out to be similar to that of Vivo V7.

Besides the software enhancements, the V9 boasts of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 octa-core processor, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage, which puts this phone in the midrange bracket. Pricing has not been revealed, but you'll likely be able to buy this in China. Given that my hands-on unit sports Hong Kong localization and a retail sticker from the Philippines, it's likely the V9 will head to other markets in the region pretty soon.

The vivo V11 actually has plenty of merits, thanks to the beautiful design, multiple AI functions, durable battery and great camera performance (except the AI Low Light Mode which doesn't help much). However, right now there are A LOT of camera-centric mid-range smartphones around in Malaysia and all of them are priced quite competitively against the RM1699 V11.

The Vivo V11 handset is an exciting handset from a “large display phone” perspective. It delivers a stunning display in a thin-and-light form-factor, which is a priority for many users. The AMOLED display is great, and includes an in-screen fingerprint reader, which still reserved for a tiny club of smartphones. These are very compelling positive points.

The Vivo V11 Pro is a gorgeous phone. Of all its pros and cons, the phone’s design is what will be its biggest selling point. Beyond that though, performance is pretty solid and though it won’t appeal to the gamers in the crowd, most people will find it good enough for every day use. Battery life lasts a solid work day without any issues and the phone supports rapid charging that can top off your phone to 50% in under 30 minutes. The camera is not bad at all and produces images that are contrasty and just slightly over saturated to make them more visually appealing.

Vivo V11 Pro tries its best to deliver everything a casual user seeks in a mid-range sub-Rs 30,000 smartphone. For the most part it stays successful but then it also has some competitors in place that have better set of specs on paper. But unlike them, the smartphone has a big battery, impressive AMOLED screen, a competitive camera and way better design. Although the specs are not so premium, it will really feel so when you start using it. There’s hardly any downside if you look at it except for the competitors. The only aspect that gets a mixed reaction is the FunTouch OS UI and the decent Qualcomm processor. In case those are deal breakers for you, then you may probably want to stumble upon the next best option - Asus Zenfone 5Z.

The Vivo V11 Pro is a solid all-rounder at Rs. 25,990 and offers better value than the Oppo F9 Pro (Review), but for a bit more money. Think of it as a Vivo X21 with a bigger battery and better front camera, but at a much more reasonable price, which is a good recipe. Obviously, it’s hard to ignore the Poco F1 (Review) at this price level, but getting your hands on one is likely to be difficult for a while, whereas the V11 Pro should have better online and offline availability. Then there’s the Nokia 7 Plus (Review) — a phone that has very similar specifications as the V11 Pro, but with the allure of stock Android One and much better construction quality.

The Vivo V11 Pro doesn’t feel like a drastic upgrade over the V9, which is understandable considering that the V9 launched merely six months ago. We appreciate the upgraded SoC and subtle design changes including the smaller notch, the new colour and the in-display fingerprint sensor. We’re yet to see what the cameras are truly capable of, and the larger battery should offer better standby time compared to the Vivo V9. As for the competition, the V11 Pro has phones such as the Poco F1 (Review) and Oppo F9 Pro to contend with, which should make things interesting for buyers.

I’m not saying mid-range phones don’t deserve flagship features, but if the attempt falls short, I for one would prefer the basics done well with no extra gimmicks at all. The Vivo V11 bites off more than it can chew, but if it had taken a slightly smaller bite it would’ve ended up being much more fulfilling.

Vivo V9 Pro
The Vivo V9 Pro is a mid-range smartphone with a competitive price tag. It is Vivo’s improved version of the Vivo V9, featuring better hardware performance just like the Vivo V9 compared to the V7. But, this time, they have gone with the same number in the same year. The V9 Pro swaps out the Snapdragon 626 for the better performing Snapdragon 660 SoC. The RAM of the V9 Pro is also increased to 6 GB. The Snapdragon 660 SoC is an Octa-core processor with four Arm Cortex-A73 cores at 2.2 GHz and four Arm Cortex-A53 cores 1.8 GHz.

As for operating software, it runs on FunTouch OS 4.0 on top of Android 8.1 Oreo. Funtouch OS gives users access to a series of useful features, ranging from power and file management tools to photo editing and shooting options. For design, the Vivo V9 Pro looks very similar to its predecessor, which is the Vivo V9. It also has a conventional back-mounted fingerprint sensor at the rear of the smartphone. Besides using the fingerprint sensor, Vivo’s AI Face Access also allows user to unlock the phone by just looking at it. Videos and games come to life on this phone’s 15.5 cm (6.3) FHD+ 19:9 FullView display. Its 1.75 mm side bezels and its 90% screen-to-body ratio give this phone a sleek aesthetic appeal.

Vivo has priced the V9 Pro better than some of its other offerings, including the Vivo V9. The Vivo V9 Pro has a more powerful processor and more RAM compared to the previous model. Unfortunately, in order to keep costs low, it opted for different camera sensors, but thankfully this has not had much effect on photo quality. Priced at Rs. 17,990, the Vivo V9 Pro is actually less expensive than the Vivo V9 (Review), which is still listed at Rs. 18,990. That makes it easy to recommend the new model over the older one.

Really, it's only its software that keeps the V15 Pro from true greatness. Funtouch OS needs a complete rethink. Samsung’s new One UI is clean and elegant, MIUI and Huawei’s EMUI have both gained more coherent design over the years, and even Oppo's own ColorOS now looks less cluttered. The V15 Pro is much better armed than its predecessors on the hardware front, but when it comes to software, we shouldn't have to endure something like Funtouch OS on upper mid-range devices in 2019 - and especially not when an increasing number of more polished Android skins are holding their own against the iPhone.

The V15 Pro reflects the unstinting progress of Chinese engineering and, in particular, that of parent company BBK, also the owner of the Oppo and OnePlus brands.

If you are a photography enthusiast, the V15 Pro is a decent mid-range option with a long-lasting battery. So there’s no need to worry about the battery running out while taking photos outside. The tech specs are also great for general use with reasonably good gaming performance. On the other hand, the HONOR View 20 is another pretty good choice and retails for RM1999. It does not come with a wide angle lens and a pop-up camera., though, and another alternative is the Huawei Nova 4, priced at RM1899. Well, if you can afford them it is really just a matter of personal preference which you choose.

vivo brings its notch-free, all-screen concept to the mid-range line with the V15 Pro. Like the more expensive NEX, the V15 Pro sports a pop-up selfie camera to completely eliminate the notch. Paired with skinny bezels, the V15 Pro manages to achieve a 91.64% screen-to-body-ratio. But with a rather steep Php 23,999 asking, the V15 Pro is significantly more than its competitors. It does have powerful internals, a bigger battery, a triple rear camera setup, and their latest in-display fingerprint scanner tech, but will that be enough to sway consumers?

Unlike other midrange smartphones in the market today under the same price point, Vivo V15 Pro really stands out. The camera technology makes it different having able to capture more details and HDR photos, thanks to its 48MP primary camera. However, Vivo needs to consider the use of the USB Type-C port that could have placed this device on top even better. At the back, even under the midrange category, Vivo should have considered using the back-glass design to make it look more stunning. Overall, Vivo V15 Pro will truly give you a flagship-like smartphone experience. So far, Vivo has able to amaze us considering its generous price that is affordable yet very reliable.

No-notch Super AMOLED screen with in-display fingerprint scanner and pop-up camera is definitely a trend for this year since a lot of companies have started adopting a similar design at more competitive pricing. Lack water or splash resistance and a glass body are a definite miss, but an attractive design, good cameras and smooth performance with Snapdragon 675 and 6GB of RAM are impressive. However, you have to manage the custom UI and live with the micro USB port.

Vivo is a company that is known for bringing flagship features to the less expensive mid-range segment, and the V15 Pro is another proof of that. Here’s a phone that is not only better than its predecessor, the V11, in looks and performance but also inherits some of the features of the more powerful NEX like the Ultra FullView Display and the motorized pop-up camera.

Vivo V15 Pro Review, a device with so many heavy features such as motorized selfie camera, 48MP camera lens, 8GB RAM and so many others. It is the most loaded device by Vivo till now, they have introduced so many new features at a mid-range price value. We are impressed by this device but we have to wait and see how long this motorized camera will run in the future, it is just raising the question. Briefly, its a beautiful device with awesome features and tech lovers will surely love this techy device.

The Vivo V15 pro has a very clear message to consumers. It’s not selling for specs, it’s selling for AI camera and innovation. That’s all. If you want a powerful phone, look elsewhere. If you want innovation as well as a mind-blowing camera for the lowest price possible, then the V15 pro has been designed for you.

The vivo V15 Pro strongly depends on its unique or rare features in the price range. They do contribute to the overall asking price and one could justify the extra cash. But besides the motorized camera and the in-display fingerprint, what else do you get? Well, for starters, the phone has very good battery life (although the fast charging isn't really "fast"), good AMOLED screen and gorgeous design. The 6.39-inch notch-less display is also worth considering.

Vivo V15 Pro seems to be a complete package that offers a premium design, good cameras and immersive display. The phone’s performance is up to the mark and you will not feel any lag or shutter. The cameras of the Vivo V15 Pro are capable and it provides good battery life. The only trade-off you notice is the lack of USB Type-C port and Widewine L1 certification. Apart from this, if you are considering a device with new innovations, then Vivo V15 Pro can be considered as a good option.

If style matters to you, the Vivo V15 Pro offers a lot of style. In addition it also offers a great display and above average cameras. That could be worth Rs 28,990, but not to everyone. If the price would have been somewhat lower, and software along with performance a bit more polished, I would have found it easier to recommend it to everyone. For now, it is a good option for some users but not for everyone.

The Vivo V15 Pro left me quite impressed with its fast performance, good battery back up and of course, with the quality of photos. Priced at Rs 28,990, the V15 Pro might seem a little expensive owing to its Snapdragon 845 processor, which can be available for a much lower price. But, overall, the phone doesn’t disappoint on what it claims to offer.

Vivo V15 Pro seems to be a device to watch out. The smartphone features premium design and the display look great in our opinion. The combination of the triple-camera setup at the rear and the 32-megapixel pop-up selfie camera is the major selling point of this device. The battery seems to be good, though we need to perform a couple of tests to give our final verdict. As for the competition is concerned, the smartphone will face a tough competition with the likes of Asus Zenfone 5Z, Nokia 8.1, Xiaomi Poco F1 and more.

In a bold move, Vivo's introducing its newest flagship, the Vivo V15 Pro just hours before Samsung will officially unveil its highly anticipated Galaxy S10. Based in China, Vivo is hoping to one-up the Korean giant, and from where I stand, there's a chance it'll actually do it, maybe not in sales, but in terms of making a more covetable phone with some standout features.

There's no two ways about it - the vivo V15 Pro is an impressive phone and easily one of the most exciting mid-rangers in recent times. The full screen front, the large sensor selfie camera on a motorized slider and the excellent 48MP main camera are all features worthy of a flagship.

Although the V15 is looked upon as a toned-down version of the V15 Pro, it is powerful enough to meet the demands of a wide variety of users. It’s got a large screen with Gorilla Glass 5, above average RAM and storage capacity, triple rear cameras, an elevating front camera, and a large battery capacity. If you want the V15 Pro but can’t afford the PHP 23,999 price tag, I think you’ll still be happy getting the V15 for a lower PHP 17,999.

The Vivo V15 is a stylish phone with a lot of goodness inside it. But it has some issues as well. It is a good all-rounder phone with good looks, great battery life, decent performance, fast and smooth pop-up camera, decent camera performance on front and back, and bright display. But compared to the high-end Pro version -- Vivo V15 Pro -- the V15 lacks quite a bit. Overall if you are not too demanding from your phone, and want a device with good screen, a nice pop-up selfie camera and attractive design, the V15 will satisfy you. But, if you're a power user there are better options in the market at this price point.

The Vivo V15 impressed us with its long battery life, beautiful design, solid build quality, and a capable front camera. However, it has its fair share of shortcomings too. It is still stuck with a Micro-USB port, can't stream HD videos from services like Netflix, and its UI needs some refinement. Moreover, low-light photography is sub-par for a phone at this price.

Despite sporting a sizeable display notch and a slightly higher price tag (Rs 26,999), I would recommend the Nokia 8.1 over both of them when it comes to the build quality, gaming performance, the camera and those important and timely software updates. The Vivo V15 is a great mid-range phone for selfies, but it falls a bit too short of being an all-rounder.

Barely half a year after the launch of their V15 Pro, and Vivo has launched the next model in their V series – the V17 Pro. Like the V15 Pro, this will again be powered by the Snapdragon 675 octa-core processor with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Sadly, however, there will be no support for storage expansion via microSD. That said, the phone does support dual Nano SIMs.

Just like many other vivo and Oppo phones, the maker is charging somewhat of a premium for the V17 Pro. And brand loyalty aside, we can't recommend the V17 Pro over competing phones because they are cheaper while offering even higher specs. But once the price goes down, the V17 Pro will be a phone to look forward to.

As a camera phone, the Vivo V17 Pro packs in some good hardware, but the software still needs a bit of polish. Accessing certain basic functions can be a multi-step process, when it shouldn't be. If you love taking selfies, the dual front cameras offer plenty of creative freedom, especially with features such as the posing guides. Low-light video is one area which needs a lot of work, as apart from the below-average image quality, the drop in framerate is quite jarring.

Even though it’s well priced and has six versatile cameras, the Vivo V17 Pro is very much geared towards the Chinese market. Its software is a high learning curve for western tastes and tries far too hard to be like iOS, making the phone feel less flexible than Android should. Its six versatile cameras are its saving grace, even if they are not class-leading.

If you own a V15 Pro, there’s not much reason to upgrade to the V17 Pro aside from the cameras.

Because it packs in an older processor which manages to deliver but when you compare the OnePlus 7 that is available at Rs 3,000 more or the Redmi K20 Pro, it’s not up to the mark.

Well, it depends. While the processor could have been from the Snapdragon 700 series, the hardware specs are adequate along with the battery life. An impressive display and camera make it a good package. Priced at Rs. 22,999/-, you could also look at some of the phones which carry similar specs for substantially lesser prices. Nonetheless, the Vivo V17 did not fail to impress with its overall performance.

With similar hardware and performance, you may want to get the latter and save RM200 – but if you’re looking for something truly lightweight that has fantastic photography quality and overall performance, we say spend that extra cash and go for the V17.

At the price of Rs 22,990, Vivo V17 is an overpriced smartphone that offers mediocre processor and an array of above-average cameras. All of which can be found on any other similar priced smartphone in the market today, except maybe the camera. It seems that Vivo is just trying to keep the V-series smartphone lineup alive by launching this phone. The smartphone does most of the things right such as day-to-day tasks, offers a good design which more or less premium despite it has a plastic build.

The Vivo V17 is positioned below the Vivo V17 Pro and swaps the dual-selfie pop-up module for a tiny hole in the display. Vivo has picked an excellent AMOLED panel with good viewing angles, and the hole isn't distracting. The V17 also offers decent battery life and fast charging.

The daylight photos came out to be crisp and well-detailed and the close-ups looked good as well. However, we faced some problems with the macro lens. Coming to the low light, the results were a mixed bag. We did notice some grains and noises. Furthermore, photos clicked using wide-angle mode in low light conditions delivered some average results. To conclude, the Vivo V17 offers a mixed bag results in the camera department.

Despite these promising features, Indian buyers are highly price-sensitive, so it is interesting to see that Vivo has positioned this phone above Rs. 20,000. In terms of specifications, the competition including Xiaomi, Realme, Samsung, Motorola, and others have several compelling options that are priced lower. Do stay tuned to Gadgets 360, as our full review of the Vivo V17 is coming up, and we'll be able to dive into the details of this phone's design, usability, performance, cameras, battery life, and much more.

At this price, the Vivo V17 offers great value. The phone sports a clean design and looks unique. It captures great pictures in almost all situations and does a great job with macro and low-light shots. It offers a long-lasting battery life and supports fast charging support inside the box. The only area where I believe Vivo V17 could have been slightly better is hardware.

Vivo's V19 smartphone meets the requirements to be a good mid-range device for 2020. It has respectable performance, a pretty display, functional cameras, and compatibility with expandable storage and even a 3.5mm audio jack. Where it excels further is the insanely long battery uptime, fast-charging capability, and smooth user experience in day-to-day use. A nice, fast phone that doesn't conk out after a bout of TikTok videos? Sign me up.

At the price, the V19 comes at we wished Vivo offered a better processor but none the less it has a great camera, the phone is sleek, the design is good, and it offers a full day of battery life. If you’re a diehard Vivo fan you can consider buying this! But, if you’re looking for something better at this price point then you consider these options:

The Vivo V19 is an expensive smartphone with decent design, capable performance and satisfactory optics. The phone is a good option if you desist bulky phones with the usual gradient design. However, there are smartphones like the Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro, Realme X3, etc. that offer better value with regard to features, design and specifications.

Vivo’s V-series is well-known for its cameras, but as for the V19, it seems like they’re now considering more internal aspects that matter to a lot of users. It may have a year-old Snapdragon 712 chip but it still provides a smooth multitasking experience. The battery life is amazing and of course, the cameras are loaded with useful features.

Vivo V19 checks most boxes right for features and specs that a 2020 smartphone should have. It looks premium, comes with a good and bright display, is backed by a big 4500mAh battery and packs a powerful camera setup that delivers stunning photos in both daylight as well as lowlight conditions. But, processor does remain an issue if one looks at price-to-specs ratio.

But, like any other Vivo V-series phones, the Vivo V19 will mostly target the offline customers for whom what matter in a smartphone are the look, camera, and the battery. And these areas are certainly well covered by the Vivo V19. No doubt, the better processor would have been ideal for improving its saleability but Vivo understands the offline market better than its competitors.

If you are a diehard Vivo fan, the V19 is a great option to consider given the number of improvements it has brought in compared to the predecessor. The phone is sleek, captures stunning pictures in most situations — macro and lowlight could have been better — and offers one full day of battery life. However, given the price of the phone, I wish Vivo at least opted for the Snapdragon 730 processor if not the 800 series. If your budget is low and preferences are high such as flagship-level processor, 64MP quad rear camera and more there are other options available in the market from Realme, Redmi, and Samsung.

The V19 is a typical Vivo phone, one that has its share of frustrating flaws that are quite intelligently masked by the company. The phone isn't the most powerful performer out there, with the presence of the Snapdragon 712 -- an upper budget segment SoC -- at its heart proving to be the biggest reason to make a case against the V19.

The Vivo V19 doesn't have a very powerful processor considering its asking price, and that might be the deal-breaker for potential buyers. The Snapdragon 712 SoC is nowhere near the fastest, but if you look beyond that, the Vivo V19 does pack in good cameras and a big battery. The display is vivid and the in-display fingerprint scanner is quick.

Moving to the verdict, vivo has come up with a smartphone packed with great features, the midrange Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 SoC, 48 MP quad cameras, and dual selfie cameras which competes the OPPO Reno3 Pro in its class. vivo has managed to offer a new version of FunTouch OS i.e. 10 and it looks great & performs better, however, the remains of bloatware are still in it. vivo V19 has a comprehensive overall package which includes the great cameras, the cameras perform really well, however, the price is slightly on the higher side as far as the specs are concerned.

Vivo V19 comes in Sleek Silver and Gleam Black colour options and is priced at Rs. 27,990 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage and Rs. 31,990 for the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage model. The Vivo V19 is a pretty good upgrade to the Vivo V17 with a great display, battery life and a very good set of cameras. But at the same time, I’m surprised that why the company didn’t pack a much powerful SoC like the Snapdragon 730G or the Snapdragon 720G, considering the asking price. For instance, Vivo’s Z1X and Z1Pro pack the same Snapdragon 712 SoC, but at a much lower price. Having said that, the V Series are generally targeted towards offline buyers and gets the basics right, I would say. If you are a power-user or want a better gaming experience, you might want to check out the alternatives as well before going ahead with the purchase.

Vivo V19 Neo has a straightforward and simple functionality. We didn’t experience any stutters on social media and other apps while navigating through the UI, the camera is impressive especially in low light. The performance is great and impressive as well. Vivo V19 Neo is priced at P17,990 for 8GB/128GB. Is it overpriced? For me, no, I’m impressed especially when I saw the performance gap in Honkai Impact 3. The chipset isn’t new but optimized. It lacks some features on its native camera app but it still gives feel and comfortability. A simple, powerful, and plain yet premium feel smartphone that definitely worth the price.

The Vivo Neo V19 is powered with a 2018 chipset and unfortunately, some people say it is overpriced because of the outdated chipset. So we tried everything, Camera Test (Daylight and Night-Time), Game Test, Endurance, Charging, and more. So the question is, does it have the potential for its price?

While the V19 Neo stands out among most mid-range phones with its AMOLED punch-hole display and a fast in-display fingerprint scanner, it will face very tough competition because of its processor of choice. The Snapdragon 675 is almost two years old, and most mid-rangers nowadays are using Snapdragon 7-series processor, with the Snapdragon 730 and 720G being popular picks.

As you can see, specs-wise, the V20 falls short of matching some of its competitors. Yet, it's not a bad phone either. Putting together a well-performing chipset with an excellent display, big enough battery, and a stylish, compact chassis is no easy task. Vivo was able to do that with the V20, it's just that mid-range competition is cut-throat.

Overall, the V20 is for someone who fancies a good looking phone and a great camera performance over best-in-class specs. It’s a mid-range device targeted to content creators who constantly shoot videos/images from their phone’s selfie camera. But, if you’re someone who prefers a better overall performance then you might want to consider the OnePlus Nord or Samsung Galaxy M51 which are also at the same price point.

The vivo V20 and V20 Pro leans heavily on the company’s established selfie dominance to woo consumers, though there’s plenty to like here aside from that. They’re the prettiest phones we’ve seen yet in the mid-range market, and there’s enough performance under the hood to satisfy all but the ardent speedsters. It’ll be facing tough competition from Xiaomi’s recently launched flagship slayers, but there’s still a subset of the phone-buying population that prefers the vivo brand over the brand that everyone’s talking about.

Well, the answer to this depends solely on what you're looking for from your next smartphone. If the design and build quality are what you're after, then you can hardly go wrong with the Vivo V20. As we mentioned above, it is one of the better-designed phones in the segment, and such is the level of craftsmanship used in putting together the device, that the Vivo V20 actually feels more expensive than it actually is.

The Vivo V20 is an impressive mid-range smartphone, but it’s not perfect. The problem with the V20 is that Vivo has played it safe and there is not much dramatically different from its predecessors. That’s not a bad thing necessarily, given the high level of competition in the mid-range segment. With smartphones like the Galaxy M51 and Pixel 4a priced under Rs 30,000, Vivo might need to think differently to counter the stiff competition.

It is not directly comparable to its predecessors, instead focusing more on design. If you value looks over other aspects in a smartphone, the Vivo V20 will appeal to you. It is well designed and feels premium to the touch.

Smartphones have come a long way in just the past few years alone, rapidly changing in design as well as introducing new, sometimes outlandish features. Almost every smartphone has a gimmick these days in an attempt to stand out from the crowd and it gets harder to think of novel ways to differentiate one model from the next. That’s true even for “mid-range” tier phones like Vivo’s latest selfie-centric phone, the Vivo V20. But does it have enough to actually make it worth noticing? We dig in to find out.

After reading my review, you really want to give Vivo V20 SE a try. Overall, the phone has many astonishing features at the price of Rs. 45,999. If the price is a bit high from your budget, then there are many other options available in the market under 30k. But obviously, you have to compromise with some specs.

The strengths of the Vivo V20 SE lie in its design, good viewing experience and to some extent even in the camera output. The one aspect where we wished the company had not compromised was the processor. Overall, however, with the Vivo V20 SE, the company has offered a reasonably good device with a good camera and display experience.

Yes, there's a price difference of about Rs 4,000 between the two phones, but in our opinion that's a fair enough trade for the improved performance and extra features you get with the V20. However, if that phone's over your budget, then we suggest skipping on buying the V20 SE altogether.

Vivo released a new smartphone called Vivo V20 SE which acts as a smaller brother to the Vivo 20. Both the devices have a price difference of Rs 4,000 but is the cheaper V20 SE worth it?

The Vivo V20 SE should have been called the V20 Lite, considering that Vivo has watered down the specifications quite a lot to target a lower price point. Just like the Vivo V20, this phone focuses on design and cameras, so if you are looking for decent camera performance at around the Rs. 20,000 price point, the Vivo V20 SE can offer you that. On the other hand, if you are looking for a well-rounded smartphone, the V20 SE isn't your best bet. It sports a weaker processor, which is evident when playing heavy games. In this case, the Realme 7 Pro (Review) and the Poco X3 (Review) would be suitable alternatives.

Overall, just like the V20, the V20 SE also strongly focuses on design and camera performance as mentioned, and does well in both these aspects. If you’re not looking for a phone that’s too tech-centric or heavy on specs and just want a pretty phone that does the job, this is the one! Not to forget, you’re sorted with amazing photo or video content for the gram cause the selfie camera is the best feature of the V20SE.

On the camera front there is a 48-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera that is also capable of macro shots, and a 2-megapixel depth camera. The hardware is a bit of a downgrade compared to the Vivo V20, which had a 64-megapixel primary sensor. The V-series is known for its selfies, and the V20 SE packs a 32-megapixel selfie camera which seems to be good for the price.

As the most affordable phone under the V20 series, vivo packed a number of compelling features to the V20 SE. Fast 33w wired charging, consistent camera performance from its 48-megapixel rear camera, and a proven, tried-and-tested AMOLED display make the phone punch above its weight class. FunTouchOS gets its biggest (and best) makeover so far, but vivo can still improve on it by addressing some glitches and missing features.

Vivo V20 Pro retails at Rs 29,990. The phone will compete directly with OnePlus Nord and Samsung Galaxy M51. Is it a good choice?. With really fast charging and good battery life, a solid processor and 5G connectivity, Vivo V20 Pro can surely be a popular choice in mid-range category devices.

The Vivo V20 Pro is a solid mid-range smartphone, offering good specs and performance in a device that has a beautiful design. Vivo made good choices in the camera department and the display is great for media consumption. It does not have a high refresh rate display like the OnePlus Nord, but I am fine with trading it for better cameras. The phone has a strong battery life, and it can charge super quickly. Overall, the V20 Pro is one of the best smartphones in the mid-range market segment and I do not have a problem recommending it.

The Vivo V20 Pro isn’t perfect, but it is a good all-round smartphone with so many things going for it. The phone comes with an FHD+ AMOLED screen, a great dual selfie camera, a smart processor with 5G capability, and a decent battery. Nevertheless, it lacks a high refresh rate screen and light and fluid user Interface compared to its competitor OnePlus Nord. On the other hand, the Vivo V20 Pro has an edge in terms of design and cameras. If you prefer a good looking smartphone with great cameras and have a budget set under INR30K, then the Vivo V20 Pro is a good option for you.

Having reviewed the vanilla V20 and also having the chance to do a hands-on review on the 20 Pro 5G, we can conclude that both devices deliver a similar user experience that not many would notice the nuances. Still, the V20 Pro 5G feels pretty fresh, and it's a gorgeous device, too. But being priced at INR 29,990, we fear that it would be yet another vivo handset that's too expensive for its own good. This high price puts the V20 Pro dangerously close to feature-rich competitors like the recently announced Xiaomi Mi 10i or even the OnePlus Nord.

It is the third V20 device from Vivo in a short period of time. And like its namesakes, it too brings a snappy selfie camera and a snazzy design to the table. But will that be enough for the Vivo V20 Pro to stand tall against the likes of the OnePlus Nord and the Pixel 4a?

The Vivo V20 Pro is a solid offering, and one that competes fairly well with the OnePlus Nord (Review). Features such as 5G, 4K 60fps selfie video recording, the crisp AMOLED display, and quick charging help this phone put up a strong fight against OnePlus' offering. However, the V20 Pro does fall a bit short on the value front. For it's asking price of Rs. 29,990, you could instead get the top-end variant of the OnePlus Nord, which has 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. Throw in the 90Hz display and OnePlus' reputation for updates, and you have a product that's pretty hard to beat.

The Vivo V20 Pro is a likeable midrange smartphone with compact and premium design and lightweight built. Priced at Rs 29,990, the phone has all it takes to deliver an all-round performance, except for the user interface. Close competitor to the OnePlus Nord, the Vivo V20 Pro race past the former in terms of design and cameras but lags behind in terms of user experience and display quality. Despite its flaws, the Vivo V20 Pro is a one good option in sub Rs 30,000 price segment.

The OnePlus Nord reviewed by Ameya may seem like the best device to get in the mid-range. It’s priced right too with top-end hardware inside that’s available from as low as Rs 24,999. It will no longer be the stock Android alternative it used to be after OxygenOS 11, and it does not offer Android 11 just yet. But it’s not exactly a proper mid-ranger because it solely focuses on performance. The design is pretty basic.

For Rs 29,990, the V20 Pro offers a lot to like, including its powerful cameras and sleek design. As such if design, cameras and even fast performance is what you're looking for from your next phone, then the V20 Pro should definitely be among the top phones on your list. Yes, the price point does throw up curveballs in the form of the OnePlus Nord and even the V20 Pro's more affordable sibling, V20. But these are curveballs we feel the V20 Pro can tackle.

The V20 Pro runs Android 10 OS and Vivo has promised the Android 11 OS update in the coming weeks. The phone uses Vivo’s Funtouch OS 11 UI that offers a simple and sophisticated design. The icons are now smaller and rounder like the stock Android interface. The OS brings tons of new features such as S-Capture that lets you take screenshots and record the phone’s screen. The phone now also comes with a new iManager feature that shows your phone’s performance. Vivo has now also updated the Ultra Game Mode feature, and it now supports picture-in-picture that lets you launch messages or chat apps in a floating window mode while playing games.

So I think the best way I can describe who the Vivo V20 Pro is for is like this – if you’re already looking for the Vivo X50 Pro but do not want that gimbal-like stabilization, then get the Vivo V20 Pro. The main camera can also take some amazing pictures and the software experience is pretty basic, but it works and I don’t have any major complaints about it.

5G support makes the Vivo V20 Pro somewhat future-proof, but best of all, it's priced pretty aggressively at Rs. 29,990. It seems clear that Vivo is going after the OnePlus Nord with this model, but whether it succeeds or not will depend on the kind of support the company continues to offer after the initial months of sale. We'll be putting the Vivo V20 Pro to the test, so make sure you check back in at Gadgets 360 for the full review, coming up soon.

The Vivo V21 5G is a mid-range model in the Vivo smartphone lineup and falls into the High-end segment ($400 to $599). The device features a 6.44-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 800U chipset and 8 GB of RAM. An internal memory of 128 GB memory offers plenty of space for photos and videos and a 4000 mAh battery should provide enough juice for extended shooting and recording sessions. The rear camera combines a primary module with a 64 MP sensor, an 8 MP ultra-wide, and a 2 MP macro camera. Let’s see how this combo does in the DXOMARK Camera test.

The Vivo V21 is a unique phone. On the one hand, it checks a lot of boxes – the selfie camera is best in class, its screen and in-display fingerprint scanner are great, and there are plenty of storage options. It also delivers a decent day-in-day-out user experience. Gamers will want more power – check out the Poco F3, while traditional photographers will want a better rear camera set up – as found in the cheaper Redmi Note 10 Pro. Anyone who doesn’t like selfies should also look elsewhere – the OnePlus Nord 2 is a great all-rounder at £369. If your gallery is bursting with mediocre selfies you wish were better though, and you love the idea of turning your face to within an inch of being recognisably you, or you just want some extra fill light when snapping pictures of you and your loved ones, then the Vivo V21 5G is a very fun phone that gets a lot right.

If selfies and vlogging are your domain, this smartphone is definitely worth attention... besides, it's a typical mid-range product. Good daytime photos, nice night photos, is a wide-angle camera, macro camera - weak but it is also. The performance is not that bad, the quality of connections and sound is adequate ... you can complain about the lack of a mini-jack and water resistance, but the microSD card slot, headphones and cover included in the set, as well as a very nice display are pleasing. Unfortunately, all of this was initially priced at EUR 399, which in my opinion is a bit "overshot" amount. At the moment, after a few months, the price has dropped slightly - by around EUR 20-30. If the operator offers it to you at a nice price and you like to do selfies - Vivo V21 5G will be worth your attention.

The V21 5G also benefits from a good-quality screen, but there are compromises elsewhere you’ll need to be able to live with.

The vivo V21 5G is a solid 2021 midranger that manages to build upon and actually expand on the formula set forth by its V20 predecessor without giving up on the core design and feature goals. It remains a very slick and classically stylish device, with a clear focus on selfie photography and video capture. The 44MP autofocus selfie is great and pretty unmatched in this price segment. Now with the addition of OIS, it delivers a great video experience and a solid photo one. It alone could be enough of an allure to draw in a trendy, younger, social-network-focused crowd.

If you’re looking for a phone that looks great and doesn’t mind not having access to 5G, then you might want to spring for the V21e if you’re looking to save a few bucks. If not, then the V21 5G should be the phone for you.

When I first saw the LED lights on top of the vivo V21 5G’s front camera, my first thought was that this phone will be great for making TikTok videos. True enough, the feature makes the device a great choice for creators who love shooting videos and photos. It’s an impressive midrange smartphone with almost flagship features and a solid choice for those looking to upgrade to a 5G-ready phone without breaking the bank.

By now, it should be obvious that the vivo V21 is excellent for those who do daily vlogs like TikTok and Instagram stories. More people are beginning to upload short clips during the pandemic, so vivo really nailed it with the target demographic this time. As mentioned above, the main highlight about the V21 is its 44MP OIS front camera and 64MP triple rear camera module. In addition, the battery and the phone's overall performance are good enough. So for RM1599, we think it's not a bad deal. But if you want other options, there's the Samsung Galaxy A52 (RM1499) with its IP68 water and dust resistance, the POCO F3 (RM1099) with its 120Hz refresh rate, or the OPPO Reno5 5G (RM1899) with its 65W fast-charging. The choice is yours.

However, I do recommend you to check out the Samsung Galaxy A52 4G too. For an even lower price, you get better software in terms of user experience, features, and promised updates. Best of all, there are no intrusive ads on the Galaxy A52.

As can be understood, there is a scope of refinement on the Vivo V21. Display and OS are some of these, with other shortcomings being too marginal to consider. It does score big on the form factor and ease of use for different operations a user performs throughout the day.

The key specifications of this smartphone seems rather average on paper. I for one am not a huge fan of taking selfies but if you do, this seems like the device for you. The OIS helps in shooting them and the results in low light is pretty impressive. Plus, there’s quite the number of settings and filters on hand for you to play around with.

The Vivo V21 5G’s price will depend on region, and so far Vivo has only announced pricing in Malaysia, which came out to around $390. We can expect the device to be priced similarly in India (being announced on April 29) and other parts of Southeast Asia. However, for Europe, I have a feeling the price will jump a bit. At this price range I’m not sure the Vivo V21 5G is a worthy purchase for most people. You can find superior SoCs, displays and main camera array at the same price range if you buy something from Redmi or Realme. However, for selfie fans who really need to film themselves walking and talking (aspiring TikTokers, maybe?), the Vivo V21 5G’s selfie cam with OIS does bring a slight advantage.

If you look at the characteristics, the vivo V21e looks like a reincarnation of the V20 with an updated design. A very good reincarnation, in fact. The main advantages of the V21e are a really good screen, a convenient shell without bloatware, quite decent performance with some reserve for the future, given the additional 3 GB of RAM, and decent cameras. An obvious plus is that today the V21e will cost $75 cheaper than the V20 with similar characteristics. In general, if you are looking for an up-to-date, powerful and good-looking smartphone for reasonable money, it is worth paying attention to the V21e.

Vivo V21e 5G cutbacks on obvious gimmicks i.e. a 2MP macro snapper. Plus, it gets rid of a high refresh rate, Dimensity 800U 5G, OIS, and a few other really useful specifications. Talking about Vivo V21e 5G individually, the phone is well-built and has a promising specs sheet, however, it is literally priced too high. Dimensity 700 5G chipset is powerful but at Rs. 25,000/-, I expect a faster processor instead like Dimensity 800U 5G or even Snapdragon 765G or so on.

It is interesting to study the capabilities of middle-class smartphones: there are many functions, everything works well, the performance may not be the flagship, but such devices are not very expensive either. In the case of Vivo V21e, we get a thin case with an interesting pattern while not at the expense of autonomy. Performance “with a margin,” a very high-quality selfie camera, a solid main one, which is suitable for all occasions. Well, a full set of joys like NFC, a customizable shell, and an adequate price for such characteristics.

Our review of the vivo v21 5G and V21e in the Philippines show that the brand’s new mid-range phones are targeted squarely at people who prioritize looks as well as selfie and camera performance over things like affordability or performance-per-peso. If you’re looking for a phone that looks great and doesn’t mind not having access to 5G, then you might want to spring for the V21e if you’re looking to save a few bucks. If not, then the V21 5G should be the phone for you.

In general V23e feels like a trusted formula of the mid-tier smartphone of yesteryear: it has everything, but nothing outstanding. This formula might have worked in the past. But when competitors are working hard to blur the line between mid and top-tier smartphones (yes, with some tricks and with mixed results), Vivo’s approach is questionable, at best.

The Vivo v23e is a great combo of 5G connectivity, ample storage, decent camera support, better battery life, and good display quality. However, there’s no denying that there factors like the battery capacity, process power, refresh rate, 3.5 mm jack is missing in this phone. However, if you are a fan of the Vivo design, you might be going to like it. But at the same time, it would be a difficult choice for us to recommend you this phone to you in the first place. You can check out alternative options like the Redmi Note 11E Pro is a great deal and offers a diverse range of features, but the final decision is up to you.

The Vivo V23e is about to launch soon, but the rumors are that the phone will release, and the expected price would be around $360 (Rs 26,999) approx. Even though there is uncertainty where this phone stands in the competition, there are a few things that are confirmed—such as the phone will have a 6.44-inches AMOLED panel without any advance touch of the refresh rate and HDR support. Apart from this, you are getting a considerably good 12nm – Mediatek Helio G96 chipset under the hood with impressive Android 11 OS and Funtouch 12 custom layering. The camera section includes the 64MP triple camera setup, including the secondary camera of 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro that can record 4K videos with gyro-EIS software on top. On the other hand, you are getting a 50MP selfie shooter that will bring astounding features. The phone is powered by the 4050 mAh battery that club with 44W fast charging support. Besides this, you can pick colors options like Black and Aurora options.

Is it worth buying a smartphone for the sake of appearance? Usually not necessarily, but the new Vivo gives us a convincing argument for this. The sparkling gold casing looks attractive in itself, but it gets really interesting when we shine ultraviolet light on it - the illuminated areas of the phone turn blue.

The vivo V23 will not impress with its surprisingly low price, but it captivates with its individuality. The original idea with changing body colors deserves respect – at least it’s spectacular and beautiful. Unfortunately, the sound let us down: a mono speaker is somehow not modern. The smartphone has a good camera and excellent selfie capabilities. In addition, he has a decent margin of performance by the standards of the middle class, and the batteries are stable enough for a day to the extent of active use. If the price is revised, well, or competitors massively rise in price, then the vivo V23 has a chance. However, in the current situation, when it costs much more than analogues, you can pay attention to it only out of curiosity.

The Vivo V23 is a decent all-rounder, but in today’s mid-range market that often isn’t enough. A phone like this needs to excel somewhere, and unfortunately the selfie camera here isn’t quite good enough to deliver as the phone’s USP – especially given the odd choice to strip the OIS found in its predecessor. The design may help this phone appeal to more people, thanks to the combo of a colour-changing finish and iPhone-inspired shape, though more than most parts of the phone this is of course a matter of taste. The V23 certainly isn’t a bad phone, but it just doesn’t do enough to outpace some impressive competition, and falls short exactly where it should be strongest.

Starting at ₹29,990 (roughly $400) in India, the Vivo V23 has a lot of competition in the market. It may not be the best all-around phone you can get at this price, with stereo speakers, OIS, and official waterproof rating being some of the notable bummers. But if you’re looking for a stylish device that can capture great photos, particularly selfies, then you might not need to look beyond this phone. It certainly offers a better value than its Pro sibling.

However, its steep asking price means that the V23 will be fighting its rivals at a marked disadvantage, especially since the Dimensity 920 has yet to prove itself as a powerful mid-range processor.

There's a lot to love about the Vivo V23. It performs well, has masses of space and memory to handle anything you throw at it, and a gorgeous camera system. It's carved out a niche of selfie and TikTok lovers—and if that’s your niche then this is simply the best smartphone you’ll find for creative freedom and an edge over everyone else. From the iridescent color changing case to the focus on front cameras though, most people would get better value elsewhere and a more satisfying stock UI. It is however great to see some actual innovation in the space, and if Vivo wasn’t already on your list of smartphone makers to consider next upgrade, it definitely should be.

This model didn’t get major trimmings when it comes to features compared to its higher sibling the V23 Pro, making this somewhat the more practical choice between the two. Within the premium midrange competition, there are other smartphones with better features such as IP rating, faster charging, 120Hz refresh rate, and better choice of hardware; but what the V23 has an edge on is in its cameras and that unique trendy UV design. It’s a reliable 5G-ready daily driver, plus those built-in selfie spotlights are definitely an icing on the cake.

Once again, we have to commend vivo for including all of these features in the vanilla V23 and not just limiting them to the Pro. This means that at the end of the day, the V23 ends being just as unique as its sibling with the same particular mix of features, slashing very little, as a whole aside from the price tag. That arguably makes the V23 the more appealing of the two siblings if you just happen to find this particular and undoubtedly unique mix of features and looks appealing. If that is the case, you can rest assured that the vivo V23 is also well-rounded in most other aspects and will deliver an excellent experience. However, if you don't necessarily prioritize selfies or a conversation starter UV-reactive paint job, you can probably find better value devices elsewhere.

Once again, we have to commend vivo for including all of these features in the vanilla V23 and not just limiting them to the Pro. This means that at the end of the day, the V23 ends being just as unique as its sibling with the same particular mix of features, slashing very little, as a whole aside from the price tag. That arguably makes the V23 the more appealing of the two siblings if you just happen to find this particular and undoubtedly unique mix of features and looks appealing. If that is the case, you can rest assured that the vivo V23 is also well-rounded in most other aspects and will deliver an excellent experience. However, if you don't necessarily prioritize selfies or a conversation starter UV-reactive paint job, you can probably find better value devices elsewhere.

I think Vivo should have offered a better chipset and a bigger battery on the V23. Smartphone purists and power users, in general, might find the phone a bit lacking considering the more well-rounded options available in this price bracket. That said, there is no doubt in my mind that those who love taking selfies and appreciate its stylish looks can consider the V23 5G a perfect companion.

Vivo is mostly associated with industry-leading camera performance, and the Vivo V23 5G aims to maintain that status. As we’ll see here, style and performance go hand in hand with their product approach. Vivo claims perfection and surprise, and each new smartphone it launches lives up to the company’s claims of perfection and surprise (to some extent). The Vivo V23 is “India’s first colour changing smartphone” and “India’s first eye AF dual selfie smartphone”. The Vivo V23 5G is a significant upgrade to the V-series due to its Dimensity 920 chipset, 90Hz refresh rate AMOLED display, 64MP primary back camera, 50MP primary front camera, and an 8MP ultra-wide selfie camera. There’s also a 44W fast-charging support. The V23 stands out from the crowd because of its back panel, which changes its colour when exposed to sunlight or UV rays. Now let’s get into an in-depth review of the Vivo V23 5G.

We got caught up in the glitz and glamor of the Vivo V23, and spent lots of our testing period marveling at its lovely design and taking numerous selfies. In these two areas, we can give the phone hearty thumbs-ups. But we still need to test many other areas, like the battery life, rear cameras and processing performance, before we pass a definitive verdict on the phone. In particular, we’ll also need to have a price before we publish our full review, so we can evaluate its value for money. As it stands, though, this may be our favorite smartphone launched at CES 2022.

So concluding this review, the Vivo V23 Pro is certainly a unique phone for the price with its distinctive design and a reliable selfie camera. In my opinion, it is a fairly balanced device. I mean, besides the excellent design and selfie camera, it also has a great display, decent performance, a good enough battery life, while the rear camera arrangement is pretty solid as well—apart from a few hiccups here and there. However, I do wish that Vivo had gone with a 120Hz refresh rate screen, provided better haptics, and included OIS support which would have elevated the experience even more. And yes, I definitely think it is priced a bit higher too. Of course, you can get some discounts in the offline market and catch some deals online too. But not everybody gets that, so that’s something to consider as well.

Starting at ₹38,990 (roughly $520) in India, the Vivo V23 Pro isn’t a particularly affordable phone. It has a lot going for it to justify the price tag, none as much as the flagship-grade chipset and excellent selfie camera, but the price-cutting measures that Vivo has implemented means it leaves something to be desired in certain areas. The lack of stereo speakers, official water resistance, and OIS is a big letdown. Overall, the Vivo V23 Pro is a decent option in this price range but you might find better all-around phones if you look more in-depth. If photography and performance are all you’re looking for, then this phone will not disappoint you.

Priced at Rs 38,990 (8GB + 128GB), and Rs 43,990 (12GB + 256GB), the Vivo V23 Pro is a tricky phone to recommend when the OnePlus 9R or even Vivo’s X60 series, especially one of my favourite X6O Pro can be purchased by spending a few more bucks. That said, for someone with a good front camera as a key requirement, this is indeed one phone that can be considered. Overall, it looks a bit pricey but then you have a balance of both style and performance.

Vivo V23 Pro is the first smartphone with a rear color change feature. If the color-changing features, curved screen, and flagship performance appeal to you, then you can choose to buy this phone. But the camera isn’t that great, especially in this price range. The main camera and selfie are amazing, but if you need a better optical zoom and a telephoto camera, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G is the phone for you, and it’s almost the same price range. But the Vivo V23 Pro’s selfie camera is far superior. Overall, the price, new color change feature, and spaces are acceptable. If you’re okay with the battery capacity and no reverse charging and wireless, you can definitely opt for the Vivo V23 Pro smartphone. So whether this phone is the right phone for you or not depends on what you want from a smartphone.

Overall, the Vivo V23 is a decent phone. Its screen is very good, and the performance and battery life are more than adequate. Despite the high megapixel count, the camera struggles when it cones to more challenging light conditions. The Vivo V23 Pro offers a great screen and excellent performance for the money. In general, the camera is very good, too, albeit with a couple of blind spots. Overall, though, it remains a good-value package.

For anyone looking to buy a slim and light smartphone, or in search of the latest available serving of Android, the Vivo V23 Pro could be attractive. Its colour-changing back panel is quite unique, and it's one of the very few smartphones with a curved-edge display in this segment. However, it's not for everyone, especially those who want good gaming performance and battery life. The V23 Pro has stiff competition. Having reviewed the Realme GT (Review) and the iQoo 7 Legend (Review), I can confidently say that iQoo has the best cameras of the three. There are also other smartphones at this price point such as the OnePlus 9R (Review), Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro (Review) and the recently launched Xiaomi 11T Pro (First impressions), which offer better gaming performance than the Vivo V23 Pro. All these competitors also have stereo speakers and AMOLED displays with 120Hz refresh rates. The Mi 11X Pro even has an IP53 rating. While the cameras of the Vivo V23 Pro are quite reliable for stills, recorded videos need a lot of work.

The V23 Pro is a solid mid-range phone, but it's a shame that 'solid' is about as good as it gets. It's particularly disappointing that the V21's USP - its optically stabilised selfie camera - hasn't returned. The dual-lens setup here is fine, but nothing special, and never feels like a significant upgrade on other selfie cameras around the same price. Good specs and decent battery life certainly help, as does the phone's eye-catching design and slim build. They make the V23 Pro a well-rounded and competitive package, but other than the aesthetic there's simply not quite enough here to make this phone stand out.

Vivo has definitely tried to bring something new on the table with Vivo V23 Pro. The colour-changing glass on the back, dual-tone LED lights and a slim, light-weight body with a bezel-free front. The smartphone justifies the legacy of the Vivo V series with an impressive camera, especially at the front. Battery life and its fast-charging abilities add to the overall performance of the device. Vivo V23 Pro comes in two models – 8GB+128GB and 12G256GB priced at Rs 38,990 and Rs 43,990. This may seem a bit costlier when compared to the rivals like the Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge which comes with a starting price of Rs 26,999. The phone’s predecessor, Vivo V20 Pro, too was priced at Rs 29,990 onwards. Nevertheless, Vivo V23 Pro is a good choice for those looking for reliable performance with one of a kind colour-changing feature.

The Vivo V23 Pro 5G meets most of its claims. It features a trendy design, good performance, and a good camera, though it could have been better in different cases. Where I believe it falls short is in the battery department. However, this, too, will be depending on the user's day-to-day usage. There are probably better options in this price range, but if you value "cool" and want to stand out from the crowd, the Vivo V23 Pro 5G is the smartphone for you. The phone's colour-changing rear panel is the icing on the cake.

The vivo V23 Pro is a bit of an odd device when it comes to a final verdict. On the surface of it, its MSRP does seem a bit high for what it offers, making some omissions, like official ingress protection and OIS, to name just a couple, stick out that much more. As we outlined in the previous section, you can easily get a better overall "value", well-rounded mid-range device for the same price or less. Like we said, when you put all of this together, you end up with a truly unique device, quite unlike most of its competitors. If this particular mix of features sounds appealing to you, then you can rest assured that the vivo V23 Pro is also well-rounded in most other aspects and will deliver an excellent experience. However, if you don't necessarily prioritize selfies, you can probably find better value devices elsewhere.

The Vivo V23 Pro was released in January 2022, and the expected price of the phone is roughly $560 (Rs 41,999 in India) approx. As far as the primary specs are concerned, you are getting a 6.56-inches AMOLED panel with HDR 10+ and 90 Hz refresh rate display. Following, you will receive a dual-camera setup on the front display, which includes 50MP primary and 8MP ultra-wide lenses. Also, the back panel changes its color when exposed to sunlight, while it also attains a triple camera island that leads by the 108MP primary shooter, 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP macro with a 4K video recording, and gyro-EIS. Under the hood, the phone is powered by a 6nm – MediaTek MT6893 Dimensity 1200 5G chipset that provides a Mali-G77 MC9 GPU support. Also, you are getting the software layering of Android 12 based on the Funtouch 12 interface skin. The Li-Po 4300 mAh battery grants decent screen time while offering 44W fast charging support. There are shade options like Sunshine Gold and Stardust Black.

The Vivo V23 Pro is priced at Rs 38,990 for the 8 GB/ 128 GB variant, with the 12 GB/ 256 GB variant priced at Rs 43,990. That does make it a little expensive when compared to other phones running the same processor, most notably the OnePlus Nord 2 and the Poco F3 GT, both of which are priced below Rs 30,000. It will also have to contend with the likes of the OnePlus 9 RT, the Mi 11X Pro, and the iQOO 7 Legend, all of which are priced in the same range but come with the flagship Snapdragon 888 processor and displays with higher refresh rates. The Vivo V23 Pro, however, is not really for spec chasers. It is more for those who want a phone that is a steady rather than spectacular performer, is very flauntable, and ticks the camera (especially the selfie camera) and curved display boxes.

The Vivo V23 Pro delivers on most of the claims it makes. It has a stylish design to offer, the performance is more than adequate, and the camera performs well, though it could be better in some situations. Where I feel it is a compromise is on the battery front. But again this too will depend on each user’s day-to-day usage. The lack of a microSD card might also make this a no-go for some users. But the price of Rs 38,990 (for the Pro variant) does mean the phone will have a tough time in the market. There’s the OnePlus Nord 2 which has the same processor is available at a starting price of Rs 29,999. So does the Poco F3 GT and both are capable devices. The premium price you are paying is for the style and the dual-selfie cameras, so keep that in mind.

The Vivo V23 Pro in its attempt to justify its flagship tier pricing ends up offering flagship-like specs from last year. However, the overall user experience is far from the experience you get with the Vivo X70 or the older X60 series. FunTouch OS is the biggest culprit here and Vivo needs to amp up its efforts to get the software right at all costs. The competition from Oppo, Samsung, Realme and Motorola has gone up by a notch in this regard. The rest of the phone, however, is fantastic to use. The selfie camera performance is great, especially for what you pay for the phone. The Dimensity 1200 keeps everything chugging along fast and smooth. The display is nice to look at, although a 120Hz refresh rate should have been standard here. And most importantly, it commands attention with its beautiful design and that colour changing rear. Should you buy the Vivo V23 Pro? The answer is a confident “yes” but only if you care highly for selfies and a very flashy design. For everything else, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G at ₹36,950 is still our top recommendation.

The Vivo V23 Pro is the best V-series smartphone I have used so far. It packs tons of features to compete against arc rivals from other brands. Of course, the colour changing back panel is unique and something that can put a smile on your face with its trick almost every time. Apart from the design bit, it packs the first 50-megapixel selfie camera along with a 108-megapixel primary rear camera. And, the cameras are capable enough. The dual-tone spotlight feature at the front stands out. In addition, the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor does a reasonably good job of keeping things up and running. But the main question comes - is it worth the price? At a starting price of Rs 38,990, the V23 Pro is a good sub-Rs 40,000 smartphone. But then, I have to admit that other MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor phones are available at lower price points. This makes the V23 Pro look slightly pricier than other phones like the OnePlus Nord 2 and Poco F3 GT. But, of course, if you want an excellent camera capability, then the V23 Pro beats the competition and justifies its price.

The Vivo V23 Pro starts at Rs 38,990 for the 8GB RAM variant, and buyers eyeing the 12GB model will have to shell out Rs 43,990. For the price, the smartphone brings some innovative features to the table, including a colour-changing back, as well as a capable set of selfie cameras. That said, the smartphone’s pricing pits it against more powerful and feature-rich devices backed by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 processor. The iQOO 7 Legend, for instance, retails for around the same price and offers better performance, more capable rear cameras, and much faster wired charging. Consequently, I’d recommend the V23 Pro to ardent selfie enthusiasts. For everyone else, the market is ripe with more well-rounded options.

The Vivo V23 Pro, just like the previous models in the V series, is all about a slim design and selfie cameras. However, this time Vivo has added a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 SoC and a 108-megapixel rear camera to the mix to make things more interesting. While I do expect better performance in comparison to the Vivo V20 Pro (Review) and the V21, the V23 Pro will have to take on mid-range devices like the OnePlus Nord 2 (Review) and the Poco F3 GT (Review) along with some premium smartphones like the Galaxy S20 FE (Review) (and the upcoming Galaxy S21 FE). Vivo has also incorporated Android 12 into its custom Funtouch OS 12 skin, so it will be interesting to see how Google's Material You design philosophy merges with Vivo's Funtouch OS. Stay tuned to my full review, which will be out soon.

So who should buy the Vivo V23 Pro? If you are someone who’s looking for a new phone for under Rs 40,000, the V23 Pro is the newest kid on the block with its colour-changing back panel and powerful Dimensity 1200 chip that performs efficiently in day-to-day use. The main camera can produce some good-looking images but the other two sensors need more tuning to create usable pictures. The curved display looks and feels great in the hand but it might take some time to get adjusted to the wide notch cutout on the top. That said, you won’t face any problems if you like to watch videos only on YouTube. And if your selfie game is strong, you’d absolutely love the dual selfie cameras of the V23 Pro. I'd also like to add here that the Funtouch OS 12 has been refined and works well without causing any unnecessary lags or errors. At its asking price starting at Rs 38,990, the V23 Pro enters the affordable flagship domain which lowers its price to performance ratio. Even the maxed-out V23 Pro with 12GB RAM breaches the 40k-mark which isn’t justified for the value you are getting out of the phone.

The Vivo V25's color-changing back design is a rare sight in this price range, lending a premium feel to this mid-range model. This is backed by impressive cameras and a surprisingly long battery life. It does, however, have a less snappy performance than the competition and has a few other flaws.

The vivo V25 delivers plenty of value at that price point. It retains the fancy Fluorite AG Glass color-shifting exterior, which is as eye-catching as ever. It also has a solid display, great battery life and fluent performance for its class. Even in its downgraded state, the selfie setup on the V25 remains impressive and a spotlight feature of the entire device. The rest of its camera setup is well-rounded too. The vivo V25's weak points are the lack of formal ingress protection rating. Its single speaker is overall unimpressive, and so is color accuracy on the display. And the MediaTek Dimensity 900 chipset on board is technically a downgrade from the Dimensity 920 inside the V23 5G. That means the the vivo V25 is a well-rounded midranger with an eye-catching exterior and a decent value proposition. We are confident that it will serve any owner well. That being said, given the huge number of competitors out on the market, it wouldn't necessarily be our first choice at this price point.

The Vivo V25 is a decent affordable mid-range Android phone well suited to those who want a glass-backed phone without spending a fortune. It doesn’t have as many notable high points as the Vivo V25 Pro, though, as its gaming power is significantly worse and the camera does not perform quite as well at night. The design, while still a stand out feature, won’t please everyone either. Its straight iPhone-like sides may seem too severe for some, and do not mask the phone’s (entirely fine) thickness like the V25 Pro’s curved glass style. Still, the rear textured glass does look and feel great compared to the plastic used in other models. From a UK perspective availability is perhaps the biggest issue. The Vivo V25 isn’t sold widely, and while good the phone isn’t worth paying additional customs charges for.

Wondering if Vivo V25 5G is worth considering? Choosing the best phone under Rs. 30000 is very challenging, as you have a lot on offer with amazing features. The V25 5G is a decent smartphone that tries to offer almost everything you require from a phone in a mid-range segment. With a unique color-changing design and advanced cameras to great battery life, the phone has a lot on the platter. However, Vivo could have offered a better chipset like the ones used in V25 Pro, or V23, thus enhancing the performance of the phone. Considering the price range, Vivo could have also gone with stereo sound or at least a dual speaker. Competitors like Oppo Reno 8, iQOO Neo 6, and Nothing Phone (1), give tough competition to the V25 5G when it comes to camera performance, gaming, and overall performance.

The Vivo V25 comes out to be a decent phone with a beautiful colour-changing design factor. This sole feature of the phone makes it stand out from the crowd. It also offers good performance and a lag-free experience, along with a great primary camera. I wish Vivo had given a 120Hz display but the 90Hz also does a good job. Moreover, the 44W fast charging quickly charges the battery which gives a decent backup. All in all, the Vivo V25 5G is no doubt a good smartphone under 30K, but there are a lot of options in this price segment. It is a great choice if you are looking for a premium-looking device with good cameras.

Like its predecessor the Vivo V23, the Vivo 25 is a competent all-rounder with a particularly eye-catching colour-changing design. And akin its predecessor, that’s simply not good enough to raise it to the top of an increasingly competitive mid-range market. Rivals such as the Pixel 6a, the Nothing Phone (1), and the OnePlus Nord 2T all offer significantly more impressive performance and more colour-accurate displays, not to mention more impressive camera systems. And likely, longer software support as well. Given the lack of firm UK and Europe release plans for the V25, Vivo may itself have concluded that picking a fight with such titans is unwise. Even if you do see the phone appearing in your region, however, you should know that while it’s far from a bad phone, you can do better for the money.

In terms of pricing, you can pick up the base model of the V25 Pro for around 450 bucks in the US, or around 450 Euros. At this price range, it’s got its sights set on phones like the Nothing Phone 1, Samsung Galaxy A53, and Pixel 6a to name a few. Considering everything that you get like the solid build quality, attractive design, capable chipset and good camera performance, it does make for a tempting choice, and Vivo fans looking for an upgrade will definitely love this one. There are some factors to consider though, like a heavily-skinned version of Android, which may or may not be to your liking, and folks after a more stock Android version of sorts might want to reconsider. But if that isn’t an issue at all for you, then the V25 Pro is a solid choice for a mid-range smartphone.

The big question with the V25 Pro 5G is, why is Vivo still charging a premium for it? If it's for features like the colour-changing back panel or the curved display, then I'm not sure how many buyers would actually be willing to pay a premium for such things. I feel Vivo really needs to rethink its pricing and strategy of its V-series, which up till the V20 Pro, was very appealing. Surprisingly, OnePlus managed to make better hardware choices and squeeze out consistent camera performance from its Nord 2T 5G, which is priced much lower starting at Rs. 28,999. In short, there's nothing really special apart from that curved edge-display which helps the Vivo V25 Pro 5G stand out. And then, there's the competition. Smartphones such as the Xiaomi 11T Pro 5G (Review) and the iQoo Neo 6 5G (Review) run circles around the V25 Pro in terms of raw performance. There's even the Realme 9 Pro+ 5G (Review) (from Rs. 24,999) which offers excellent value, and the Nothing Phone 1 (Review) (from Rs. 32,999) which offers premium features such as wireless charging and an official IP52 rating. Despite having some solid improvements over its predecessor, the Vivo V25 Pro 5G is still hard to recommend when you have excellent alternatives in this segment.

The V25 Pro is a stunning smartphone in terms of looks. The color, the design, and the build are all top-notch. The specs are also very good for a mid-range smartphone. Based on those observations, it’s an excellent device, but adding the bloatware, Funtouch OS, and weak speakers; might turn some buyers off. I think, if you can get past the bloatware, it’s a fantastic phone.

There is much to like about the V25 Pro. Its attractive design has a large, beautiful display offering up to a 120Hz refresh rate, and its camera is very good. The RAM and storage options are generous, and the MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC is highly capable. And unlike most of the phones sold in the US, Vivo includes plenty of useful accessories right in the box, including a case, a screen protector, wired headphones, etc., so there are no extra expenses.

The Vivo V25 Pro is a very good-looking all-rounder. It has an excellent camera, stylish design, and performs reasonably well in daily use. Pick this phone if you’re looking for something stylish and don’t mind paying a slight premium. But the problem really is the price for the Vivo V25 Pro, which at Rs 35,999 is higher than both Reno 8 and OnePlus Nord 2T powered by the same processor. There’s also Redmi K50i, which has a much more powerful processor to offer at a slightly lower price. Frankly, if you want much better performance, especially for gaming the Vivo V25 Pro might not be the right answer.

For anyone seeking an affordable smartphone with a capable camera, the Vivo V25 Pro is well worth a look - particularly if you take a lot of selfies. The 32MP front-facing camera is a highlight and is backed up by some great software features. What's more, it offers great battery life, a lovely display and solid performance throughout. The looks won't be for everyone, but there's a high standard of fit and finish, and even the unusual UV-reactive party trick to show off. However, there are some downsides. The amount of bloatware was disappointing for us, as was the presence of the sub-par ultrawide and macro lenses. Depending on where you live, you may also have trouble getting your hands on one. The phone is also only available in India, right now, but it will be launched in over 20 regions across Southeast Asia before the end of the year. Hopefully, we'll see it launch elsewhere, too.

The Vivo V25 Pro is a great mid-range phone that combines a lot of what I thought made the OnePlus Nord 2T great with a more expensive-looking design and a slightly larger screen. Its primary camera performs remarkably well in tough situations despite the use of a slightly worse sensor than a couple of the best-equipped phones at the price. And while the MediaTek Dimensnity 1300 is not as high-profile as some Qualcomm alternatives, it does the job admirably even in demanding games. A mono speaker that, while loud, sounds a bit shouty at higher volumes is the one hardware issue. The more pertinent problem may be actually getting hold of a Vivo V25 Pro at the right price. While it’s great value at its RRP in countries in which Vivo is a big name, these phones just aren’t distributed that widely in the west. And, for all its strengths, this phone gets less appealing if you end up paying more for it — there’s just too much competition to warrant paying over the asking price.

The Vivo V25 Pro is a solid mid-range smartphone that, on the surface, can easily compete with popular mid-rangers like the Nothing Phone (1) and OnePlus Nord 2T, boasting a 120Hz AMOLED display, a Dimensity 1300 chipset, a fairly decent 64Mp rear snapper and all-day battery life – but it’s a little rougher around the edges than the popular mid-rangers. There isn’t any official resistance against dust or water, nor is there any mention of any toughened glass on the front or rear. There’s also the issue with Vivo’s FunTouch OS 12, which comes with plenty of bloatware (literally folders full), is awkward to use compared to stock Android and, without a software update commitment, it might not even get the update to Android 13, let alone 14, like some mid-range competition. So yes, the Vivo V25 Pro is certainly a looker, and there’s a lot to like about the hardware, but it’s not quite the perfect mid-range smartphone.

While reviewing the Vivo V25 Pro, we found it to be quite a decent offering from the company. It's not a powerhouse, naturally, but it can hardly be called a slouch. The gorgeous screen is plenty enough to look at, but its main and selfie cameras definitely help make its case stronger. It's definitely not perfect, with so-so battery life and barely decent audio. There are some flaws that can be overlooked when looking at a smartphone on this tier, and it would have been just fine if we left it at that. That said, it doesn't exist in isolation, and its market strength will ultimately be judged by how well it can stand out from its peers. In that sense, unfortunately, it might not have enough to actually make it the best choice in any aspect, though its camera performance comes very close. And with a price range of $450 to $500, it's hardly the cheapest. It has plenty of competition in this range, such as the OnePlus Nord 2T (or even the Nord N20 5G), the OPPO Reno 8, the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G, the Nothing Phone (1), and the Google Pixel 6a, just to name a few.

The all-new Vivo V25 Pro is no doubt a good mid-range phone. Its unique design, amazing display, powerful performance and potent primary camera make it a good all-rounder. On top of that, you get 66W fast charging support which is really nice to have. However, there is still some room for improvement. The selfie camera could have been better. Also, though the performance is more than enough for casual use and moderate gaming, it falls short if you are a heavy user and gaming enthusiast. I would have appreciated if there were stereo speakers, but it’s not a deal breaker. All in all, Vivo V25 Pro is out there for those who prefer stylish design and good cameras.

Even if you ignore the funky fluorite glass, the V25 Pro puts in a decent showing across the board. Performance is zippy, the main camera is capable and the screen is a step above many similarly-priced handsets. That you can get creative with cases and cutouts whenever you like is a nice bonus. Vivo phones aren’t the easiest to come by in the UK, though. Is there enough here to consider hunting down a grey import? We’re not so sure. The Nothing Phone 1, Google Pixel 6a, OnePlus Nord 2T 5G and Samsung A53 5G are all compelling alternatives that are easier to get hold of, and might even cost less by the time you’ve faffed about with exchange rates. None of them best its feature set in all aspects, but absolutely have it beat in one or two places. If you live somewhere where Vivo operates, though? There’s still plenty to like.

The vivo V25 Pro is, by all accounts, a solid midranger. It looks and feels great, has a great display, adequate performance, good battery life and a pretty great overall camera quality and experience. However, it fails to truly shine in any particular department. It seems that vivo just decided not to shoot for excellence with this one. Whether voluntarily or due to other circumstances, the V25 Pro feels like it was never meant to impress truly. It definitely falls short of its vivo V23 Pro predecessor in at least a few major ways. Plus, while the V25 Pro is reasonably priced, it does not position itself aggressively on the market and rubs shoulders with quite a few excellent devices within its segment. Don't get us wrong, it is a perfectly capable and well-rounded device which we can't find any particular major fault with. It's just that it does not exist in isolation and fails to deliver a signature or halo feature. Since that is the case, it wouldn't be our first choice and recommendation unless you get the vivo V23 Pro for a great deal.

The Vivo V25 Pro is a typical camera smartphone that targets the shutterbugs along with a fun design. The main camera is here to rule the photography sessions - especially to overcome the dark light situations. Despite losing a front camera sensor, I haven't faced any major quality drop in the daylight selfies. The finer Mediatek Dimensity 1300 chipset plays a great role in taking care of all basic as well as gaming needs. And that curved display is Vivo's Trump card here! A rare offering to find at this price. Still, there is always room for improvement. The selfie camera could be better at night. I would have also liked to see a stereo speaker setup on the phone. The colour-changing trick is fun to watch but it is kind of old-fashioned now, especially after the magic the transparent Nothing Phone (1) does with its Glyph Lights! Moreover, FunTouch OS 12 still has a long way ahead to make the experience on par with modern Android skins. Keeping the tough competition in mind, the Nothing Phone (1) is a better offering with a bold design, clean UI, decent cameras, wireless charging and overall performance in this range. Oppo's Reno 8 with the same Dimensity 1300 chipset and more-or-less same specs is another alternative at a much cheaper price.

Yes. If you're looking for a smartphone that's really good at photography and videography, but you don't want to spend so much on a flagship device, you should go for the Vivo V25 Pro. This smartphone ticks all the right boxes if you're into photography—an excellent sensor setup, a ton of filters and guides, specialized modes, and more. Of course, you're bound to get some compromises at this price. The phone doesn't have any IP rating, nor does it have stereo sound. And its Android skin, Funtouch 12, is filled with a lot of bloatware you can't remove. But if you must have the best camera at a price you can afford, these compromises are worth tolerating.

The Vivo V25 Pro’s pricing can be a bit tricky to work around. On one hand, you will be hard-pressed to find a better-looking phone in the budget flagship space. However, the choice of processor coupled with the handset’s mono speaker setup plays to the detriment of the device. Be that as it may, the V25 Pro looks the part of a premium product and offers a gorgeous, curved display too. Add to that the device’s long-lasting battery backup and the V25 Pro is a decent option to consider in the flagship-killer space.

Yes, definitely if you want an all-rounder smartphone. The Vivo V25 Pro is capable of delivering some great daylight shots, and decent low light as well when there is some light. Apart from camera, design is one of its strongest suits. It has a unique colour-changing back panel and a curved display, which you don't usually get in the lower price range. The general performance and battery life are also good. However, do keep in mind that there is no storage expansion support and dual speakers. But these are not a deal breaker. As far as alternatives to Vivo V25 Pro are concerned, you can consider Nothing Phone (1) and Poco F4.
