  • Great phone ruined by vivo customization that can't be altered

    If this phone was running stock android 14 or something like that, I would give it a well-deserved 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 for value, features, performance. But VIVO has their own OS (based on Android) and this OS has some rather bizarre and unwelcome additions. First, the power button doesn't work. Note this is a feature, not a bug or a manufacturing defect. If you press the power button, you are prompted to install bluelm copilot software. I have no idea what that is, and don't care to find out. But your only choices are to install or cancel (don't install) Either way, the phone doesn't turn off. And note you did push the power button. But doing that doesn't allow you to shut the phone off!!! There is another hidden app integrated into the OS (can't be disabled or uninstalled) called lock screen poster. This one just randomly changes your lock screen wallpaper, even if you manually selected a different lock screen wallpaper. Overall, this is a good phone. But the custom OS is so frustrating that I'd never buy another VIVO device. I'll go back to Realme something or other, after this Vivo wears out. Realme is not perfect but the only functions you don't like can be disabled or uninstalled easily.

    Pros
    • Hardware is pretty good value for the money
    • Image quality is great, even in sunlight
    • Cameras work well
    • Stereo sound is better than average
    • Charge it once or twice a week
    Cons
    • Power button is designed not to work (not defect)
    • Vivo wants to choose your wallpaper for you????

  • It's a good buy, worth every penny for an all-rounder phone with decent camera and performance.

    The design and texture is very premium despites its plastic composition, definitely not cheap to touch. Camera is great under daylight, however, don't expect much during night-time, specially, the front camera (just decent). Performance is balance and can play heavy games like genshin around 40-45 fps, also does not overheat with its big vapor chamber it stays around (37-42 Celcius) during long-term gaming. The 6k mah battery is one of its highlights, it can last you two days with normal use (no heavy gaming). The screen can't reach 144 hz refresh rate, it defaults to 120 hz in all occassions even after setting to 144 hz.

    • Screen (Amoled 120z)
    • Performance (SD7 Gen3)
    • Clean and Customizable UI

    Cons

    The phone is made with an emphasis on performance

    I bought the phone for gaming, the good thing is that the processor does not throttle and does not heat up, the photos here are of average quality

    The phone is simply TOP

    The phone is simply top for its 19k Chinese version and for 25k RST. Of the at least some minuses I can say only about the camera in night mode and that there is no wide angle. But the performance is at its best, does not throttle at all, does not heat up, the shell is super, removed the Chinese in the first setting and you walk and rejoice. In general, I recommend, take it on OZON, it is quite cheap now and arrives quickly.

    For the money it's a pretty good smartphone

    bought relatively recently, first impressions were great, smooth animations, good phone speed, but alas a lot of unnecessary junk installed from the factory, I prefer a clean system and without any applications, so I deleted half of them through the ADB program but still many applications could not be deleted, this upset me, I will get root rights for further setup, and so I can't say anything bad. I bought it for only 18,000₽ new, for such a price the phone is excellent

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
