Editorial report

vivo V29 Pro 12 GB / 256 GB / India technical sheet

The vivo V29 Pro suits people looking for a slim phone, a high-resolution display, and fast charging; the trade-off is a battery with less capacity than most phones of its time. It is 7.5 mm thick, and its 6.78″ AMOLED display has 453 ppi and a 120 Hz refresh rate. Its pixel density and 90.8% screen-to-body ratio are among the highest of phones launched around the same time, useful distinctions for anyone who prioritizes display detail and screen area.

The MediaTek Dimensity 8200 and 8 GB of LPDDR5 RAM are part of the 8 GB / 256 GB configuration; the phone is also sold as 12 GB / 256 GB. Its AnTuTu result of 904,412 is better than that of most phones launched around the same time. The camera setup includes a 50 MP main camera with optical image stabilization, a 12 MP telephoto camera, and an 8 MP ultrawide camera. The main camera's f/1.9 aperture is less bright than that of most phones of its time, and the phone has no optical zoom. Video recording reaches 4K at 30 fps.

The 4,600 mAh battery has less capacity than most phones launched around the same time, while its 80 W charging power is higher than that of most. With IP68 protection, an AMOLED display, and optical image stabilization, the vivo V29 Pro makes most sense for someone who values a slim design, display detail, and charging speed more than battery capacity. Its overall NeoScore is 6.8: a fitting combination for that buyer, with a clear trade-off in battery capacity.
