Vivo X50 Pro Review (K.S)

At Rs 49,990, Vivo X50 Pro is clearly top rate however does it supply journey that can task upcoming OnePlus Nord. Here is our overview

It’s a gorgeous smartphone however the digicam should have been better. I’m no longer certain how many instances we have written this at BGR India. A smartphone nails a lot of fundamentals however falters in the digital camera department. One manufacturer that significantly desires to proper the incorrect is Vivo. The enterprise has launched Vivo X50 and X50 Pro in India as gadgets that clearly excel in the digicam department. If Lewis Hamilton’s intention this yr is to win seventh world championship then Vivo’s goal is to win accolades for its camera.

In order to do that, Vivo took anything was once accessible in the market and personalized matters for its very own liking. It even constructed a customized stabilization method to gain pinnacle shelf performance. Once the digital camera bit was once in place, Vivo truly introduced specs that would allow this digital camera to outperform its friends in the market. In many ways, Vivo X50 Pro goes eccentric on its digicam aspects however mellows down when it comes to relaxation of features. It is additionally the first smartphone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G SoC in India.

India’s top rate smartphone section was once developing earlier than the pandemic. The Chinese smartphone maker used to be additionally developing in the standard market however that boom did no longer mirror the top class end, the place OnePlus, Samsung and Apple held the reigns. Oppo and OnePlus are set to launch new telephones this week and Vivo is making an attempt to undercut them with the early mover advantage. At Rs 49,990, Vivo X50 Pro is truely top class however does it supply trip as well. Here is our review.

Cameras

It's basically outstanding Camera.48MP + 13MP + 8MP + 8MP Rear Camera Setup, Camera Aperture: f/1.6 (48MP) + f/2.46 (13MP) + f/2.2 (8MP) + f/3.4 (8MP), Sony IMX598 with Gimbal Stabilization, Gimbal Technology, 4-axis Optical Image Stabilizer, EIS, Extreme Night Vision, Super Night Mode 3.0, Style Night Filters,Astro mode, AI Supermoon, Motion AF Tracking, Pro Sports Mode, Audio Zoom, Smart Zoom, 60x Hyper Zoom, Portrait Mode, Night Portrait, Super Wide Angle mode, Macro Mode, AR Stickers, Pano, HDR

This principal digital camera is paired with an 8-megapixel periscope lens succesful of 5x optical zoom. It is truly the superstar of this rear digicam setup. This shoots crisp photos at 5x zoom or an equal focal size of 125mm. The photographs have been usable even at 10x and 20x zoom in some cases. It collects records from the fundamental 48-megapixel digicam and fuses with the periscope zoom lens to recognize and produce small print in the scene. Vivo claims 60x hybrid zoom however I didn’t locate the photos to have ample small print at that zoom. This zoom function is supplanted through two greater facets known as Starry Sky and Supermoon. 

Performance

For now, the Snapdragon 765G with its built-in 5G modem is no longer solely speedy however additionally future proof. With Reliance Jio asserting 5G plans at AGM yesterday, it appears like we may also now not have to wait lengthy for the subsequent era of cellular telephony. One place the place it did now not do properly has to be battery life. I averaged between 5 and six hours of screen-on time and there is no easy way to recognize this. With 90Hz refresh charge and PUBG Mobile, the battery drained faster than I idea it would. At 4,315mAh, the battery can be known as as small in this segment. I assume Vivo may want to now not have geared up a greater battery except making X50 Pro thicker. 

Design and Display

Vivo is one of the smartphone manufacturers doing a lot in the sketch department. With its NEX series, the organisation is pushing the boundaries of what is feasible when you take the show to the edges of the chassis. Vivo X50 Pro does no longer push the graph to that stage however it is nicely designed nonetheless. There is glass lower back needless to say however is frosted to the steel and comes in solely one colour referred to as alpha grey. This again end shifts from gray to blue relying on mild falling on the surface. However, it is very delicate and you would possibly now not even notice. Smartphone makers have learnt that buyers don’t choose units that replicate more than one hues with their lower back panel.

At 8.04mm, it is substantially skinny and weighs round 181 grams. After the usage of smartphones that weigh 209 grams recently, I located this to be absolutely mild in comparison. The again panel additionally has a gentle sense that you would desire to touch. However, it is susceptible to smudge and you may favor to defend it with a case. On the back, there is the digital camera module which protrudes a bit. It wobbles a lot on a flat floor except a case and inserting it face down would be a higher option. There is a Vivo branding on the lower back as well. There is a flat plate at the pinnacle with “5G Professional Photography” inscribed on it that appears pleasant and tough to notice. 

Should you buy?

Vivo X50 Pro is essentially a digital camera constructed round the smartphone experience. We have considered more than one smartphone makers attempt this thinking however none have succeeded that well. With the void left by means of Huawei, due to its lack of Google Mobile Services on P40 series, there was once an possibility for any person to fill these shoes. Samsung tried with Galaxy S20 Ultra however it has definitely established to be a first technology product. We even idea that OnePlus would supply a magnificent digicam this 12 months however it ended up turning in its satisfactory digital camera overall performance yet. In Vivo X50 Pro, I am capable to see a digicam smartphone that gives you true outcomes throughout exceptional scenarios. It is clearly no longer best and there are nevertheless areas the place the agency can examine from Apple or Google and adapt.

However, when you open the digital camera app, factor and shoot, the end result from Vivo X50 Pro is genuinely good. If it has facets like IP67 water or dirt resistance, I would no longer hesitate a bit earlier than recommending this. At Rs 49,990, it is one high priced smartphone and when you spend such money, you have to assume the absolute best. It is fine when you appear at the digital camera and familiar overall performance however it left me trying for more. This is some other motive why smartphone makers have to make development at a regular pace. We have viewed so lots improvement in area that the quality function nowadays would possibly come to be underwhelming tomorrow.
