Editorial report

vivo V29 technical sheet

The vivo V29 suits anyone looking for a slim phone with a detailed display; its main trade-offs are battery capacity and the main camera’s aperture. At 7.5 mm thick, it is among the thinnest phones of its time, while its 453 ppi pixel density is among the highest. Its 93% screen-to-body ratio also ranks among the best of phones launched around the same time.

The camera overall stands better than most phones of its time. The main camera pairs 50 MP resolution with optical image stabilization, but its f/1.9 aperture is less bright than most. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G posts 620,950 in AnTuTu v10, a result better than most, while overall hardware performance is typical for its time. Its 4,600 mAh battery has less capacity than most phones of its time, whereas 80 W fast charging is more powerful than most. Connectivity overall is typical.

The 6.78-inch AMOLED display has a 120 Hz refresh rate, combining a large screen with a high refresh rate in a slim body. The phone has IP68 protection and is sold in 8 GB / 128 GB and 12 GB / 256 GB configurations. Its overall NeoScore is 6.6. The vivo V29 is best suited to buyers who prioritize display detail and a slim design and can accept the smaller battery capacity and the main camera’s aperture.
