vivo V29 Pro 12GB RAM Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
7.5/10
Verdict
The Vivo V29 Pro is an incremental upgrade over the Vivo V27 Pro, though some tweaks here and there definitely give the former an edge. Despite using the same MediaTek chipset, the new Vivo phone performs relatively better than its predecessor. It also offers good battery backup, impressive charging speed, and nice camera performance. However, I still find the software experience cluttered, and the phone comes loaded with tons of unnecessary pre-installed apps.
Pros
- Good display
- Sleek design
- Aura light for images
- Fast charging
Cons
- No stereo speakers
- Average selfie camera
- Loads of pre-installed apps
Design and display
+
As I mentioned, the Vivo V29 Pro 5G looks similar to its predecessor. The phone retains 7.4mm thickness, which is not bad at all, provided that flagship devices by many OEMs continue to get marginally thicker. The weight is again capped at roughly 188 grams.

Both Vivo V29 Pro and Vivo V27 Pro draw power from MediaTek's 4nm process-based Dimensity 8200 SoC. The smartphone's base variant now comes configured with 256GB of storage. There are two RAM configurations available - 8GB and 12GB.

Battery

The Vivo V29 Pro houses a 4,600mAh battery, the same as the Vivo V27 Pro. However, the current iteration comes with a bump in the charging speed (80W instead of 66W). With bundled charger, the phone attained 50 percent charge in barely 20 minutes, while 100 percent charge can take nearly 40 minutes. Vivo has provided the option to optimise charging for those concerned about the effects of ultra-fast charging on the battery over a prolonged period of usage.
