The budget to mid-range market has always been saturated with options. Notable brands like Vivo, Xiaomi, Oppo, and many others hurl multiple releases each year in these segments. While Vivo doesn’t release all too many, their singular offering often becomes the market standard. Just like the Vivo V27 Pro. Launched on 1st March 2023 in India, the V27 Pro generated quite a buzz because of its internals and price. Let’s find out the specs, pros and cons of Vivo V27 Pro.  Key Specifications of Vivo V27 Pro   Design and Build Quality  Like every year, there is also a complete overhaul with the V27 Pro. The device is considered to be the successor of the hugely popular V25 Pro. While the front of the device appears to be completely similar, the noticeable changes are on the back. This year, there are new color options along with changes in the camera hardware and setup.  Other than that, everything seems to be carried on from the last year. There is the gimmicky color changing back which is sure to turn eyes.  Read More: 5 Smartphones Around 15000 TK for Best Display, Gaming, Photography  Weighing 182g the dimensions of this device are 164.1 by 74.8 by 7.4 mm. Users will also be getting glass front and back just like last year. Being a mid-range device, the glass protection on the front and the back aren’t rated.  The camera housing has been updated to be much larger and rectangular than the previous generation. The flashlight has also been updated to a ring-like shape. It looks pretty cool and futuristic from a design standpoint.  The usual ports and buttons are all there. There’s a dual nano sim slot on the device. Unfortunately, Vivo seems to have been done with the micro SDXC support on their mid-range devices. There’s no headphone jack on the device either.  Overall, there are some welcome changes in the design department of the V27 Pro. Other than that,  you’re getting a similar build quality and features which is a pretty good thing from a price perspective.  Read more: Tecno Spark 10 Pro Review: Can it outdo the ancestors?  The Display  The display has had a boost from the last generation. Not much on the quality side but rather on the size. The display is up to 6.78 inches from last year’s 6.58-inch panel found on the V25 Pro. The display offers 1080 by 2400 pixels resolution, 20:9 ratio and about 388 PPI density. The panel is an FHD+ AMOLED, HDR10+ one with a 120 Hz refresh rate. From the spec sheet, the panel is all guns blazing, and rightly so. The quality of the paper also reflects in everyday use. The HBM and 1B color support make everything on the panel crisp and sharp. The viewing angles are amazing no color distortion whatsoever. Vivo also seems to have reduced the bezels around the sides for a near-seamless experience.  Whether it’s gaming or simply consuming media, the display on the V27 Pro is easily up with the big players like Apple and Samsung.  Read More: Xiaomi Redmi K60 Pro Review: The Flagship Killer Midranger of 2023 The Camera  The camera on the V27 Pro is a triple module one with the main camera being a 50 MP shooter. Rather than being a complete gimmick, the additional two sensors are also quite capable with an 8 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP macro shooter.  The 50 MP might seem like a downgrade from the 64 MP found on the V25 Pro. But Vivo is using a more updated sensor on the latest model.

The Vivo Y series has been the epitome of budget smartphones since its inception. In fact, this was one of the first lines introduced by Vivo. Over the years, the budget proposition combined with great camera hardware has allowed the Y models to become uber-popular in the South Asian region. Their latest iteration, the Y16 has been around for quite some time now, having launched on 1st September 2022. Here’s our detailed take on the Vivo Y16 Smartphone.  Key Specifications of Vivo Y16   Design and Build Quality  The Y series from Vivo has always been about experiments, at least in their design department. Every year, the brand has reinvented its design elements to be completely different from its predecessors.  The Y16 is also no different. The Y15 had a vertical strip camera housing with a fingerprint sensor on the back. However, on the Y16, Vivo used a rectangular camera housing with two large sensor cutouts. It's almost reminiscent of the iPhone 13 design, albeit with larger housing. The fingerprint has also been moved from the back of the device to the side.  Read More: Lava Benco V90 Review: New Low Budget Smartphone in Bangladesh Its dimensions are 164 by 75.6 by 8.2 mm. Coming to the build specifications, it’s a completely plastic phone with plastic frames and a glass front. At 184 gm, the device feels considerably lightweight. But due to the even balancing of the internals, it feels quite sturdy to hold in hand. There is no wobble whatsoever which is typically seen on plastic-built phones. The build quality is durable in and out. Moving from the textured back, the power button is mounted on the side, which doubles as the fingerprint scanner. All the additional bells and whistles like micro SDXC, headphone jack, and Type C ports are present on the Y16.  Overall, the Y16 didn’t reinvent the wheel here. It ensured that everything on par with the budget segment is present on the device, making it a complete package.  Read More: Xiaomi Redmi Pad Review: Budget Tablet Worth Consideration The Display  Before moving on to the display specifications, one thing that will surely bother anyone is the large bezels all around. It’s not exactly a deal breaker but it's out of place by 2022 standards. The thick bezels around the water-drop camera cutout and the chin is something many competitors in this price segment has been done with. It's time Vivo should cut down thickness too. The display itself on the Y16 is a 6.51-inch HD+ (720 by 1600 pixels) IPS LCD panel. The choice of LCD, as well as HD+ in this price segment, is understandable. The display resolution features a 20:9 ratio with ~270 PPI density. Even though the specs are mediocre at best, the panel does a decent job of reproducing color. The content looks crisp and sharp with a warm undertone to them. viewing angles are also great on the device which is another plus point.  Will it be a content consumption king? Not by a long margin, but it will surely get your daily fix done. And that is exactly what Vivo has aimed the Y16 to be.  Read More: Walton Primo R10 Review: Does it offer value for money? The Camera  The camera on the Y16 may sound like a step down considering it comes with a dual camera setup. The previous Y15 came with a triple camera module. Even though you’re getting two sensors, the main work is carried out by the primary 13 MP (f/2.2) shooter. The secondary camera is a mere 2 MP (f/2.4) macro lens which is as good as nothing.  We tested the camera at different lighting conditions and unsurprisingly, it performed the best in outdoor and bright light conditions. Color reproduction is decent but the dynamic range and the edge detection on the portrait shots are a hit or miss. Sometimes it can capture perfect details other times the main subject comes out a bit soft.  The situation is similar indoors and with artificial lights. There are no escaping grains and noises here and the included flashlight works well only for close-up subjects.  Read More: Infinix Hot 20s Review: A Budget Smartphone for Gamers The videography is limited to 1080P at 30 fps. The front camera is also a generic 5 MP (f/2.2) shooter which provides passable results.  Overall the camera system on the Y16 is decent. It's nothing remarkable nor does it stand out from its competitors. Rather it’s something that will get the job done for casual social media posting.  Processor and Performance  The choice for budget processors has always been going to MediaTek. The Y16 also stays true to that with the Helio P35 processor based on a 12 Nm architecture. The octa-core processor has a 4 2.3 GHz Cortex-A53 and 4 1.8 GHz Cortex-A53 core design.  Read More: Symphony SYMTAB 80 Review: Budget Tablet for Regular Use It’s the same old story with the Y16. You’re getting a processor that is designed for day-to-day usage with a focus on lighter tasks. If you’re going to use the device for social media or YouTube, the Vivo Y16 will fly.  But that doesn’t mean it can’t handle games. We ran 2D as well as graphics-intensive games like Asphalt 9, COD, and PUBG on the Y16. As long as you keep the graphics settings low, you will get a smooth frame rate without any drops. Though one gripe would be that the device gets pretty hot after 30-odd minutes.  Overall, the processor on the Y16 is designed to be the perfect casual daily driver. And it delivers on that through and through.  Read More: 10 Top Budget Smartphones Released in 2022 Battery and Charge Time  The Vivo Y16 has been equipped with a 5000 mAh battery. Given the processor and the display, this should easily last you a day’s usage on a single charge. There is also a 10W fast charging with the device. It’ll get your device from 0 to 100 in a little over 2 hours.  Official Price of Vivo Y16 in Bangladesh  The Vivo Y16 is officially available in Bangladesh in the 4/64 GB variant. The price of the device is 15,999 BDT.  Verdict  The Vivo Y16 with its display, camera, and processor has priced a tad above its competitors. This pricing would’ve been justified if it featured exceptional performance across the board. But the Y16 manages passable performance in each department with the camera being its saving grace. Read More: January 2023 New Release: Top 10 Upcoming Smartphones in Bangladesh There are other better options at this price point but if you’re a Vivo loyalist or looking for something reliable with a durable build, then the Vivo Y16 is an easy choice. 

Global smartphone maker vivo has said its Y series phone Y16 will be available in the Bangladesh market from Monday. The pre-booking of the smartphone started on January 11 and will continue till Sunday. "Vivo has come up with a lucky draw offer at its showrooms. A customer can win accessories worth Tk50,000 from the lucky draw," vivo said Saturday. "Y16 can give you seven hours of non-stop gaming experience. Also, you can enjoy continuous 18 hours of movie and series time on your favourite OTT platforms by charging Vivo Y16 just once," the company added. Read: OPPO A77s Review: Is it worth buying? Y16 has 13 and 2-megapixel cameras with artificial intelligence in the rear camera. Also, it has a 5-megapixel front camera. The smartphone uses 4GB RAM with 4GB extended RAM and 64GB storage. Also, the device is available in Stellar Black and Drizzling Gold at Tk15,999.

The iQOO line of smartphones was launched by BBK electronics in 2019 to be part of Vivo’s affordable performance smartphone series including mid-range and flagship android devices. Their latest offering Vivo iQOO Neo 7 was launched on October 20, 2022. It is the successor to iQOO Neo 6. Here’s a detailed take on the Neo 7 so you can decide whether the device is worth the buck.  Key Specifications of iQOO Neo 7   Design and Build Quality  From a strict design perspective, a lot has stayed the same on the Neo 7 from the Neo 6. You still get that squared-off camera housing on the back with an overall plastic build. But the main distinguishing difference this year has to be the leather textured back.  Even though the device is completely made of plastic, the use of vegetable tan leather brings a premium hand feel, at least for those who will use it without a cover. Other than the back, everything appears to be the same as it was on the Neo 6.  Read More: HONOR 70 5G Review: Is it worth high midrange price Another distinguishing feature is seen on the front camera. The Neo 6 boasted a colored ring around the punch-hole camera on the front. Many users complained that it was a bit distracting while watching content as the ring was a physical thing. iQOO seems to have listened to the complaints as the Neo 7 doesn’t have any ring around it. Overall the screen dimensions have also increased as the chin, and side bezels look remarkably smaller than they used to be before. There are no headphone jack and expandable storage on the Neo 7. But the model comes in a host of storage options up to 521 GB.  Overall the design is a markup on an already great device. What was lacking in the previous iterations has surely been made better this time around.  Read More: Vivo T2x Review: Should you consider this midrange gaming phone? The Display  On paper, the iQOO Neo 7 has the same display as its predecessor. However, there has been a slight increment in size thanks to the reduced chin. Spec-wise, the display is an AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate, and HDR 10+ support included. It’s the perfect upper mid-range panel with crisp and sharp contrast and vivid color reproduction.  Even though it’s completely identical to the Neo 6, everything seems to be a bit better than the previous iteration. That is because iQOO has used a dedicated display chip on the Neo 7 which works to brighten and sharpen contents on the panel.  The viewing angles on the panel are also great. We did not notice any kind of color shift or flickering issues. The high refresh rate combined with fast animations makes for impressive day-to-day usage with the Neo 7.  Read OnePlus 10R Review: Is it a worthy Midrange Flagship Killer? The Camera  The iQOO Neo 7 uses a 50 MP primary sensor combined with an 8 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP macro shooter. The camera on paper is a bit of a downgrade from the Neo 6 as it came with a 64 MO main shooter. But that’s about it. Even though the main lens has a lesser megapixel count, it doesn’t fall short in performance.  In our testing, the main camera performed pretty well. Daylight photos came out excellent, with great contrast and sharpness. The details were also on point especially the edge detection in portrait mode. The dynamic range seemed to be a hit or miss at times as it sometimes captured great details and washed out completely at others.  But like most other android devices, the performance falls short in indoors or artificial lighting conditions. The images don’t look grainy as iQOO has a variable shutter speed built into the camera app but it tends to overexpose the subject at times.  As a result, pictures come out looking artificial.  Read More: Motorola Edge 30 Review: What’s special about this upper midrange phone? On the videography end, the Neo 7 is capable of shooting up to 4K at 30 fps. The front camera has a generic 16 MP shooter that produces passable results. The videography on the front camera is limited to 1080P at 30 fps.  Processor and Performance  The processor is where the iQOO Neo 7 surpasses all its competitors. The devices come equipped with MediaTek Dimensity 9000+ based on a 4 Nm architecture. The octa-core processor has a chip design of 1 3.2 GHz Cortex-X2 and 3 2.85 GHz Cortex-A710 and 4 1.80 GHz Cortex-A510. The balanced design between higher and lower power chips makes it a highly efficient processor.  In day-to-day usage, it is almost impossible to slow the device down. We tried playing call of duty, PUBG, and Asphalt 9 on the Neo 7. Needless to say, the device was able to crunch each of the games at max graphics settings without any hiccups. Though the device got heated a bit after about 30 odd minutes.  Read More: Xiaomi Redmi K50i 5G Review: Performance Centric Mid-range Phone This device would be the perfect pick for anyone looking for a powerful device on a mid-range budget. It will easily deliver all your processing needs and then some more.  Battery and Charge Time The Neo 7 comes with a 5000 mAh battery on board. The battery coupled with the highly efficient chip can easily run for around 8 to 9 hours of continuous usage. But that’s not even the best bit about the Neo 7. There is a 120W fast charger included in the box that can charge the device from 0 to 50% in just 9 minutes.  Price of iQOO Neo 7  The iQOO Neo 7 comes in four different storage options – 8/128 GB, 8/256 GB, 12/256 Gb, and the maxed 12/512 GB. The price of each of the variants is 27,540 INR, 31,140 INR, 34,140 INR, and 35,940 INR, respectively. That brings the price to around 35,469 BDT, 40,105 BDT, 43,969 BDT, and 46,287 BDT respectively (1 INR = 1.29 BDT). However, the official price of the Vivo iQOO Neo 7 may vary due to tax and other issues. Read More: Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro Review: Know the Pros and Cons Final Words  The iQOO Neo 7 is the perfect mid-range smartphone that will offer a near-flagship-level experience for half the price. And not to mention the premium build quality it brings this time around. The phone has made excellent improvements in the display, battery, and performance section over the Neo 6. But the camera is still not up to the mark if you compare it with the competitors. Overall, the Vivo iQOO Neo 7 is an easy recommendation for anyone looking to pick up an all-around performance smartphone.

The smartphone market for entry-level to lower mid-range has always been filled with competition. vivo has been a key player in this market with its range of devices, especially the Y series. The series first debuted in 2019 with the vivo Y3. Over the years there have been several additions to cater to the dynamic needs. vivo’s latest Y series phone Y22s was launched on 23rd August 2022 globally. Now, it is available in Bangladesh. Here’s our detailed take on the key features of the vivo Y22s so that you can decide whether to go for it or not. Key Specifications of vivo Y22s  Design and Build Quality The design elements of the vivo Y22s are reminiscent of its previous generation, the Y21s. There is a similar brushed-back design with diffused reflection making it look much more premium than its price class. It also does an excellent job of repelling fingerprint smudges and overall wear and tear. However, the build is still plastic. The phone features plastic all around with an unrated glass front. At this price point, the choice of a premium design with a plastic build is not surprising. And it shouldn’t bother you much if you put in a case on the device. Read More: Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro Review: Know the Pros and Cons The dimensions of vivo Y22s are 164.3 by 76.1 by 8.4 mm. The device weighs about 192g.  Moving on to ports and buttons, the Y22s features all the essentials. The 3.5 mm headphone jack still stays right beside the secondary mic and the bottom-firing speaker. The left of the device features the sim slot along with the dedicated micro SDXC slot. The right side features the volume rocker and the power button which also doubles as the biometric sensor. The overall design and the build quality of the Y22s are satisfactory. However, the only drawback might be its front design which has rather thick bezels and chins compared to the 2022 standards. Read More: Apple iPad, iPad Pro 2022 Review: World’s most advanced tablets Display Perhaps the most visible letdown of the Y22s is its display. While it might seem like a stretch, for its price vivo should’ve included better hardware in the display department. Considering this is the primary contact point between the user and the device. The Y22s features a 6.55-inch 720P IPS LCD panel with 270 PPI density. It has a resolution of 720 by 1612 pixels. The choice of IPS LCD is still understandable, but considering that vivo has priced the device in the mid-range segment, it definitely should’ve included FHD+ resolution or a faster refresh rate. Many of vivo’s competitors offer the same along with AMOLED at this price point. Speaking of the display itself, it doesn’t have the weird color shift or blue tint like that of other HD+ LCDs. However, that’s the only good thing. Read More: Top 10 phones coming to Bangladesh in November 2022 The colors on the device look a bit washed out and the lack of vibrancy is even more noticeable because of the lower resolution. The display does get relatively bright in both indoor and outdoor use but it’s no match for direct sunlight as you will notice glares even with max brightness. Overall, the display could’ve definitely been better on the Y22s. What it brings to the table is passable but it definitely won’t be the key selling point of the device. Camera The vivo Y22s features a dual camera system. This might seem like a downgrade from the previous generation which had a triple-camera setup. But there’s more than meets the eyes. Read More: Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Review: Can it fulfil users’ expectations The main sensor of the vivo Y22s is a 50 MP ( f/1.8) wide-angle shooter. This is the same main sensor found on the Y21s. the Y21s had an additional 2 MP depth and macro sensors. This Year vivo dropped the depth sensor and kept the 2 MP (f/2.4) macro shooter for a dual camera setup. Moving on to the performance of the cameras, the main sensor steals the show here. The pictures look great in outdoor condition with decent lighting. For a mid-range smartphone, the camera was surprisingly good at capturing the dynamic range and details.  The portraits however were a hit or a miss. Sometimes it captured great details along with proper edge detection. But other times the subject wasn’t properly exposed. Read More: vivo V25, V25e Review: Is the Price Difference Justified? The exposure issues become even more apparent indoors or in dimly lit environments. The Y22s also suffer from grains and noises in any form of artificial light. The videography of the phone is limited to 1080P at 30 fps.  The front side offers a generic 8 MP (f/2.0) shooter which gets the job done. It can capture 1080p footage at 30fps. Processor and Performance Moving on to the processor, the vivo Y22s features a Snapdragon 680 4G chipset based on the 6nm architecture. The 680 chip from snapdragon is the perfect mid-range chipset which has been a reliable choice for a few years now. The processor’s graphic unit is equipped with an Adreno 610 GPU.

Although not touted to be a gaming phone, the Y22s can handle gaming pretty well. Especially titles like COD, PUBG, and Asphalt 9 play at the highest settings without any hiccups. The only problem here is that the device does get heated up after quite some time of continued gaming. For day-to-day task, the Y22s performs like a breeze. The Funtouch OS also came a long way from its initial days to be more streamlined and responsive. Overall, the performance of the Y22s justifies the price it comes at. Battery and Charge Time The vivo Y22s comes equipped with a 5000 mAh battery. Combine this with the moderate display and the device can easily last around 8-10 hours of continued usage. The device also supports 18W wired fast charging which vivo claims can go from 0 to 70% in 70 minutes.

Currently, the 6/128 GB variant is officially available in Bangladesh. The price of the device is 21,999 BDT and can be currently pre-ordered. However, the price is subject to change. Verdict The vivo Y22s checks a lot of the boxes when it comes to affordable mid-range devices. It has got a good camera, a decent battery, and a durable build with stylish looks. However, the one aspect that will bother any user is the display. Other than that, the vivo Y22s smartphone seems to be a standard phone for average day-to-day tasks.

Chinese global technology business vivo Communication Technology Co. Ltd., also known as vivo, is based in Dongguan, Guangdong. Starting the journey in 2009, vivo creates software, online services, online services, and smartphone accessories. vivo V25 5G and V25e 4G are the latest addition to vivo 25 series lineup. These smart-looking smartphones feature color-changing design that helps them stand out from the crowd. Both phones got released in Bangladesh on 25th September. They come with their differences while sharing too many similar features. Key Features of vivo V25 and vivo V25e Design The vivo V25 and vivo V25e both are powerful mobile devices. Both devices, much like the vivo V25 Pro, have arguably high-end design elements.  When it comes to design, both phones resemble just the same. You get built front and back panels in these devices. The dimensions (159.2 x 74.2 x 7.8 mm) are similar for both devices. However, V25e is a bit lighter (183g) than its counterpart V25 (186g). The corners are so elegantly cut that they seem like they might cut you. And since it's shaped like a brick, you can feel the millimeters that make up its thickness. Read OPPO F21 Pro 4G Review: Special attraction for Shakib fans A fingerprint scanner is built right into the screen for both phones, and it performs quite well. Although this kind continues to give off a more premium feel than the side-loaded variety, there isn’t any genuine advantage to selecting this type over the traditional side style. However, this one is rather effective. There is no headphone jack, although the sides are flat and reveal a large space where one might easily be installed. You can't add a microSD card, either. Both of these approaches will likely dissuade prospective purchasers who may otherwise be interested in the phone. The only difference in the design area is that the V25 offers an extra color variation. You can get both phones in Elegant Black and Sunrise Gold colors; while the V25 also comes in a Surfing Blue hue. Read realme C30 Review: An entry-level phone with smooth performance Display The display portion has nothing unidentical between V25 and V25e.  The AMOLED display of the vivo V25 and vivo 25e is 6.44 inches and features a refresh rate of 90 Hz. The resolution is 2404 by 1080 pixels, which may seem peculiar but is very standard, and there is a teardrop notch at the very top.  There are panels with 120Hz available at roughly this price. However, unless you are moving from a phone that already has 120Hz, do not believe 90Hz is a significant step-down. In addition, it is probably essential to the phone's ability to have a reasonably long battery life. More will be spoken about it at a later time. Read OPPO F21s Pro Review: What new features does it offer? The contrast is excellent, and the colors are vibrant, both of which are characteristics that are almost assured with an AMOLED display. There is the regular color mode, the professional color mode, and the brilliant color mode. The first two are strong, but you can go with "professional." It has a wonderful appearance, giving the impression to your eyes of being more saturated than the sRGB color space, but on a mobile device, the sRGB color space seems somewhat subdued. vivo claims that the display can reach up to 1300 nits. However, you won't see anything close to that number in practice. If you force the vivo V25 into its high brightness mode, which activates automatically when you are outside in intense sunlight, the screen reaches a brightness level of 780 nits. This makes the screen bright enough for comfortable usage outdoor. Camera Rear Camera On the back side of vivo V25, three rear cameras are available. It has a 64MP wide main sensor that features f/1.8 aperture and 0.7 nicrome lens. It's 8MP ultra-wide sensor comes with an f/2.2 aperture, 16mm wide and 120-degree field-of-view. Due to the 8MP resolution, those images don't stand up well under close inspection and frequently struggle to capture more intricate natural textures. The rear camera series also includes a 2MP macro sensor with f/2.4 aperture.  Read Infinix Zero Ultra Review: Worth the hype? V25e has 3 sensors on the rear side. The 64MP main sensor and the 2MP macro sensor are the same as V25, the only difference is the ultra-wide sensor. The V25e’s ultra-wide camera is 2MP. Vivo's effective HDR optimization may provide instantly memorable shots, especially during the day. The V25e’s 2MP ultrawide lens doesn’t fall short of the ability to capture great pictures compared to V25’s 8MP. Compared to the more expensive V25 Pro, the video functions are not much worse. With software stabilization at least somewhat successful, with the vivo V25 version, 4K video can still be captured at 30 frames per second.  Both vivo V25 and V25e can capture 1080p footage at 30fps. When you switch to 1080p capture, the Ultra stabilized mode becomes available. This drives the software stabilizing process with a much more drastically cropped view.

Pictures are clear and clean, albeit not too detailed, in excellent lighting and in poor lighting. Like the rear camera, you can capture 4K images at 30fps, or 1080p images at 30fps. The V25e supports a 32MP  (f/2.0 aperture) selfie camera that provides good photos but is not as good as V25’s. The selfie sensor can shoot 1080p footage at 30fps.

Read Motorola Moto Edge 30 Ultra Review: Rebranded for New Market The vivo V25e sports the MediaTek Helio MT8781 G99 6nm CPU, which gives it the power necessary to handle most day-to-day activities. These activities include gaming, surfing social media, and doing various other chores. The GPU is Mali-G57 MC2. Both phones run on the Funtouch 12 operating system on top of Android 12. The vivo V25 comes in three different storage variations: 128GB/ 8GB RAM, 256GB/ 8GB RAM, and 256GB/ 12GB RAM. On the other hand, V25e has only 128GB 8GB RAM, and 256GB 8GB RAM variations. Both phones are ideal for playing high-end games.  Read Xiaomi 12T Pro Review: Is the hype real? However, the V25e lacks the 5G technology and falls short in providing a premium experience compared to the V25. Battery and Charger The vivo V25 and V25e both have a 4500mAh battery capacity. These phones are expected to have around 40% charge remaining at the end of day when used lightly.  Both vivo V25 and vivo V25e have a 44W fast-charging capacity.  Read Google Pixel 7 Series Review: What’s New Official Price of vivo V25, vivo V25e in Bangladesh The price of the 8/12 GB version of the V25e 4G phone is around 34,999 BDT.

The gaming power of the vivo V25e is a bit inferior to the vivo V25, and its camera does not perform as well in low light as the vivo V25. On the whole, both vivo V25 5G and vivo 25e 4G phones are excellent options under the mid-range price levels. If you want to do heavy-duty gaming, go for the V25.
