Wiko View5 Plus Review - Cheap smartphone with extreme battery runtimes

More plus than expected. Compared with its smaller brother, the Wiko View5 Plus has a stronger processor and more storage. In addition, the smartphone from Marseille wants to score with up to three and a half days of battery life and a quad camera, and that for less than 200 Euros.

Case, equipment and operation

The Wiko View5 Plus, which is mostly made of plastic, is quite heavy due to its large battery, but it still feels good in the hand and leaves a solid impression. The build quality is good, but the gaps could be a bit more even in some areas. The Wiko smartphone is available in the unusual colors Aurora Blue and Iceland Silver.

Wiko does not offer a full-fledged dual-SIM solution, but relies on a hybrid slot this time, in which the second card slot can accommodate either a nano-SIM or a microSD card. The latter does not support the exFAT file system. DRM certification is also not supported, which means that protected content cannot be viewed in HD.

The operating system is Android 10, which is still equipped with the security updates from October 5, 2020 at the time of the test. This is not very up-to-date anymore, but Wiko usually rolls out new patches every three to six months. However, we do not expect an update to Android 11.

LTE is available for the data connection on the road, which serves all common bands in this country and did not show any problems with the reception in the test. Wi-Fi 5 is installed for Wi-Fi networks, which provides a decent speed and also works stably.

The voice quality is quite decent when the View5 is held to the ear. A slight crackling is audible every now and then, but this is not particularly present. The suppression of ambient noise works rather moderately and is accompanied by a hiss depending on its intensity, and the user's voice becomes muffled. Furthermore, loud background noise is not completely suppressed. VoLTE and WLAN calling are supported.

A fingerprint scanner on the back or a less secure 2D facial recognition is available for biometric security. The former is only marginally slower, but works reliably. Inputs are quickly implemented by the View5's touchscreen and the system speed is quite decent, although there are small stutters every now and then. The dedicated button for Google Assistant is placed a bit awkwardly between the volume rocker and the power button.

Cameras - Four lenses in the Wiko smartphone

The camera equipment is identical to that of the smaller sister model. The front-facing camera only captures a few details and pale colors. However, the software offers various AR filters in addition to the portrait mode.

The 48 MP main camera takes decent pictures, but is quickly overwhelmed by backlight and tends to burn out image areas despite automatic HDR. The ultra-wide-angle lens curves the image quite a bit and only captures few details in depth due to the low resolution, but otherwise does its job well. The other two lenses only offer little added value

Display - Brighter IPS for the View5 Plus

Subpixel structure
Subpixel structure

On the spec sheet, the Plus model has the same display as the View5, but Wiko actually gives the review sample a bit more brightness. It is 555 cd/m² in the center of the screen with the ambient light sensor enabled, but only 517 cd/m² are available when the brightness is adjusted manually. With a full black display, the measured value is lower than an even distribution of bright and dark areas (0.52 cd/m²), so the contrast ratio drops to a still good 1,069:1 in the APL50 measurement

A high-frequency flickering can be detected with the oscilloscope, but it is not a classic PWM

Display Response Times

ℹ
Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
   ↔    Response Time Black to White
26.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 12.8 ms rise
↘ 14 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 60 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (22.3 ms).
   ↔    Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
53.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 26 ms rise
↘ 27.6 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.25 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 88 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (35.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ
To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM detected 31650 Hz ≤ 4 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 31650 Hz (Likely utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 4 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 31650 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 19035 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Performance, emissions and battery life

The MediaTek Helio P35 in Wiko's View5 Plus turns out to be much faster than the SoC in the View5 despite its older age. Furthermore, there are 4 GB instead of 3 GB of working memory and the internal is doubled to 128 GB. However, the latter is again not one of the fastest of its kind. The integrated GPU is also only suitable for simple games; the details have to be turned down considerably for more demanding titles

The surface temperatures always remain low and Wiko's phone does not even get warm to the touch even under constant load

The mono speaker on the bottom edge plays very loudly, but the audible range remains quite muffled because it simply lacks depth. The audio jack is certainly the better alternative despite the low signal-to-noise ratio

The View5 Plus excels in battery runtimes. Despite a battery with identical performance, the Plus model manages to squeeze a few more hours out of the energy storage

Pros

+ super battery runtimes
+ lots of storage space
+ bright IPS panel

Cons

- low pixel density
- Loading time
- neither exFAT support nor DRM certification

Verdict - An additional investment that pays off

In review: Wiko View5 Plus. Test device provided by Wiko Germany.
In review: Wiko View5 Plus. Test device provided by Wiko Germany.

The Wiko View5 Plus offers a faster SoC and more storage than its sister model View5 on the spec sheet, but the review shows that Wiko also gives the display a higher brightness and can extend the already very good battery runtimes even more

The Wiko View5 Plus is a good entry-level smartphone with extremely long battery runtimes

The screen's low pixel density is certainly partly responsible for the long runtimes, but it could have been a bit higher in view of the large surface. DRM certification and exFAT support for optional microSD cards are also missing. The Bluetooth standard has also become obsolete

The additional 40 Euros for the Plus model are well invested because the higher system speed in particular is positively noticed in everyday use

Price and availability

The Wiko View5 Plus is available in the color tested here at

for just under 200 Euros, among others.
