It’s rare that you find it hard to pinpoint the best aspect of a smartphone but in the case of vivo V25 this is especially true as the phone has several impressive features. And then you look at its price and wonder how it’s possible for all that to be accessible at such an attractive retail value. This Diwali, the vivo V25 is your go-to device if you’re looking for a great all-round phone that will serve you with diligence for years to come. At just Rs 27,999, it’s a sweet deal that you should take advantage of right now. Here are all the features that we think make it the best phone to buy this Diwali.
Spectacular design – Distinct and mesmerising
Elegance and utility are at the heart of the vivo v25’s design philosophy and the Color Changing Fluorite AG Glass brilliantly exemplifies this. Not only does it bear a matte texture and a diffused surface coating that makes it a comfortable device to hold but it also grabs the all-important Color Changing Fluorite AG Glass. This glass essentially allows the rear surface to transform into a different colour depending on the kind of light that’s falling on it. If it’s artificial light that touches the surface, you’ll see a different hue than if it’s sunlight. While this applies only to the Surfing Blue option, the Elegant Black is no less attractive with its unique looks.
The vivo V25’s body bears a 2.5D flat frame that offers great grip, whether you’re using the phone vertically or horizontally. At 7.8mm thin and 186gms in weight, it’s also a very thin and light device despite the presence of glass on both the front and the back. The rear of this phone has adopted a unique approach to its camera cluster. Inspired by twin-lens reflex cameras of the days gone by, this cluster bears a minimalist yet imposing look that gives you a hint of the kind of professional imaging it’s capable of. And that’s exactly what we’re going to talk about next.
Stunning photography chops
The high-end camera hardware that goes into the vivo V25, along with advanced software, ensures that the photographer in you can always capture professional-grade shots, no matter what the shooting environment is. The 50MP Eye AF Selfie Video is one such feature that will really blow your mind. Firstly, it offers a 50MP sensor that produces selfies with high amounts of detail and sharpness. Secondly, its ability to track focus by continually tracking your eyes means you can strike as many poses as you like without worrying about losing focus. You can also use the Natural Portrait feature to bring facial enhancements that make your selfies look stunning and authentic.
And then there’s the 64MP OIS Night Camera of the vivo V25. This snapper can render large 1.4μm pixels so you can easily capture night-time shots in all their beauty. And since it’s equipped with OIS as well, every shot gives extremely clear results. What’s even better is that while shooting videos, this OIS combines its power with EIS for rendering videos that look like they’ve been grabbed using advanced gimbal. The V25 can deliver 4K videos through its front as well as rear cameras and both even offer Video HDR to give a boost of clarity and contrast to your footage.Another great aspect of the vivo V25’s camera capabilities is Bokeh Flare Portrait. It makes use of cutting-edge bokeh algorithms that produce natural and dream-like bokeh. What’s more, there are multiple kinds of bokeh to choose from. They offer different flare shapes and other changes that allow you to give your portraits a truly artistic touch. A cool camera feature worth highlighting is Vlog Movie, which puts a selection of cool templates at your disposal so you can document your life in style.
Class-leading performance and battery life
This 5G-capable device carries inside it the MediaTek Dimensity 900 chip. If you’re unaware of the power of this SoC, do note that it ships with two ultra-powerful A78 cores clocked at 2.4GHz and six high-efficiency A55 cores clocked at 2GHz. Whether it’s 4K video recording, gaming, or any other heavy task you’re performing with your device, the V25 will ensure that it’s handled with utmost smoothness and finesse. And if you’re in need of a quick boost, the System Accelerator allows you to quickly optimize system memory, visual response and strategy optimization to give the performance a big boost.
You can also expect great multi-tasking support thanks to the phone’s adoption of up to 12GB of RAM. And as if that wasn’t enough for seamlessly switching between multiple apps, the 8GB Extended RAM technology allows you to convert unused storage into accessible memory, giving the phone a maximum of 20GB of RAM. The vivo V25 can be purchased with 128GB or 256GB storage options but the presence of a microSD card slot ensures that an additional 1TB of space is always accessible to users.A 4,500mAh battery has gone inside the vivo V25, which provides it with long-lasting usage. When the phone does run out of juice, the 44W FlashCharge technology ensures that you don’t need to keep it connected to the charger for a long time. In fact, the phone can go from 0 to 61 percent in just 30 minutes. Ensuring the battery’s health also seems to have been a priority for vivo. It has blessed the phone with 24-Dimension Security Protection, which takes care of six components – phone, battery, charging chip, port, cable and power input – against elements like electric current, voltage, and temperature.
The V25’s battery also benefits from the Smart Charging Engine, which determines the optimal charging strategy based on factors such as battery status, usage scenarios, time of the day, and more. Eventually, this reduces battery deterioration and heat generated during charging, thus extending your battery’s lifespan by up to 25 percent.
Ultimate gaming beast
The MediaTek Dimensity 900 chip and other accompanying hardware already give the V25 the kind of brawn it needs to play high-end online games without any hiccups. However, vivo has added several additional technologies to support gamers. These include a Game Boost Mode that unlocks top-tier performance, and Liquid Cooling System, which instantly cools down all the main heat-generating components inside the phone using multiple temperature sensors, pyrolytic graphite sheets, and a smart temperature control strategy.
Perfect for multimedia consumption
The vivo V25 carries on its front a 6.44-inch AMOLED 90Hz Ultra Vision Screen with an FHD+ resolution. Its 90Hz refresh rate is an additional boon as it makes the overall visual experience incredibly smooth and pleasing to the eye. This display boasts 1,300 nits of peak brightness as well as HDR10+, certification, so watching movies and TV shows on this large screen is going to be an absolute treat. For a great audio experience, the phone’s speakers have been optimized with features like Audio Super Resolution, Earphone Adaption, Human Ear Customization and Preference Adaption.
Bottom line
As you can see, the vivo V25 shines with every one of its components and it’s even got stellar software to go with these features. All this for the starting price of just Rs 27,999 is truly mind-blowing, to say the least. If you’re looking for a mid-ranger to satisfy all your smartphone needs, the vivo V25 is a no-brainer this Diwali. On top of this, if you are an ICICI Bank or SBI Bank cardholder, you can also avail a cashback of Rs 2,500 on the purchase of vivo V25. This cashback offer is eligible on credit card fullswipe and EMI options with both debit and credit cards from ICICI Bank.
