Priced at $649, this mid-range handset boasts a plethora of selfie-centric features, with its standout being the innovative Aura Light 2.0. This additional ring light is supposed to emulate professional-grade lighting used by content creators. Our hands-on experience with Aura Light 2.0 exceeded expectations, providing 360° even lighting, a nine times larger surface area for coverage, and 36% more brightness than its predecessor. The ring light's Smart Colour Temperature Adjustment ensures accurate skin tones in various lighting environments.
Beyond the selfie-centric features, the phone's physicality is noteworthy. With a slender 7.46mm body and a lightweight 186g build, the V29 offers a refreshing alternative to bulkier handsets. The unique translucent 3D finish. and the dreamy Starry Purple colour variant make it stand out in a market saturated with conventional designs. The stain-resistant rear finish, coupled with high-polish aerospace-grade metal borders, adds a premium touch to the device.
Despite its slim profile, the Vivo V29 manages to house a spacious 6.78inch AMOLED display with a commendable resolution of 2,800 x 1,260 pixels and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The higher screen resolution sets it apart from other midrange alternatives, though the absence of HDR10 support might disappoint some users.
The display's curved appearance adds to the phone's aesthetics, although a flat display could have further enhanced its visual appeal.
